Period, by (a) delivering to the Company at its principal executive office or such other office of the Company as it may designate by written notice to the Holder (the

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 being purchased. 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 ten (10) Business
Days after this Warrant has been exercised (or, if applicable, after the conditions set forth in Section 3 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 ten (10) Business Days after this Warrant has been surrendered, execute and deliver to the Holder a new Warrant of like tenor representing the number of Warrant
Shares that have not been exercised. Each stock certificate representing the number of Warrant Shares purchased or purchasable under this Warrant shall be registered in the name of the Holder or,
subject to compliance with Applicable Law, such other name as may be designated by the Holder. 

    2.2  Payment of Warrant Purchase Price.  Payment of the Warrant Purchase Price may be made, at the option
of the Holder, by (i) certified, cashier's or company check, (ii) wire transfer, (iii) instructing the Company to withhold and cancel a number of Warrant Shares then issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the excess 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 shares being purchased, (iv) surrender 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 shares
then being purchased or (v) any combination of the foregoing. The Company shall not issue fractional shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant and, in lieu thereof, shall pay to
the Holder cash equal to the Warrant Purchase Price multiplied by such fraction. 

    3.  ANTI-TRUST NOTIFICATION.  If the Company or the Holder determines, in its sole judgment
upon the advice of counsel, that an exercise of this Warrant pursuant to the terms hereof would be subject to the provisions of the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as
amended (the "HSR Act"), the Company shall, within twenty (20) Business Days after (a) receiving a notice from the Holder of the
applicability of the HSR Act or (b) after such a determination by the Company, file with the United States Federal Trade Commission (the "FTC")
and the United States Department of Justice (the "DOJ") the notification and report form and any supplemental information required to be filed by it
pursuant to the HSR Act in connection with the exercise of this Warrant. Any such notification and report form and supplemental information will be in full compliance with the requirements of the HSR
Act. The Company will furnish to the Holder promptly (but in no event more than five (5) Business Days) such information and assistance as the Holder may reasonably request in connection with
the preparation of any filing or submission required to be filed by the Holder under 

4

 

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 periodically and at the Holder's request of the status of any communications with, and any inquiries or requests
for additional information from, the FTC or the DOJ. 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 in connection with such filings and all costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and expenses) incurred by the Company
and the Holder in connection with the preparation of such filings and responses to inquiries or requests. In the event that this Section 3 is
applicable to any exercise of this Warrant, the purchase by the Holder of the Warrant Shares subject to the Exercise Notice, and the payment by the Holder of the Warrant Purchase Price, shall be
subject to the expiration or earlier termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act. 

    4.  ADJUSTMENTS TO THE NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES AND TO THE WARRANT PURCHASE PRICE.  The number of Warrant
Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable and the Warrant Purchase Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this  Section 4. 

    4.1  Stock Dividends, Subdivisions and Combinations.  If at any time the Company: 

    (a) pays
a dividend or makes any other distribution with respect to 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 into a larger number of shares of Common Stock, or 

    (c) combines
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, as the case may be, 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, as the case
may be, had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such record date or effective date. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 4.1
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 to 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. 

    4.2  Issuance of Options.  If at any time the Company issues (without payment of any consideration) to
all holders of outstanding Common Stock any Options, the Company shall also distribute such Options to the Holder as if this Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to the effective date of such
issuance. 

    4.3  Distribution of Assets or Securities.  If at any time the Company makes a distribution to its
stockholders (other than in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company) of any asset or security other than those referred to in Sections 4.1,
4.2 or 4.5, 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 stockholders entitled to receive such distribution, multiplied by a fraction (which shall not be less than zero), the numerator
of which shall be 

5

 

the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the date fixed for such determination, less 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, 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 stockholders entitled to receive such distribution. Upon any adjustment in the Warrant Purchase Price as provided in this  Section 4.3 the number of shares of Common Stock 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. 

    4.4  Issuance of Equity Securities Under Certain Circumstances.  

    (a) If,
at any time after the date hereof, the Company shall issue or sell (or, in accordance with Section 4.4(b)
shall be deemed to have issued or sold) any shares of Common Stock (other than Excluded Securities) without consideration or for a consideration per share that is less than the Fair Market Value per
share of Common Stock as determined as of the date of such issuance or sale, then, effective immediately upon such issuance or sale, the Warrant Purchase Price shall be reduced (calculated to the
nearest $.001 and without regard to any other provisions of this Section 4) to an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying
(i) the Warrant Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance or sale, by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the sum of (A) the product obtained by
multiplying (1) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (on a Fully Diluted Basis) immediately prior to such issuance or sale by (2) the Fair Market Value per share of Common
Stock as of the date of such issuance or sale, plus (B) the cash consideration, if any, received by the Company upon such issuance or sale, and
the denominator of which shall be the product obtained by multiplying (C) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (on a Fully Diluted Basis) immediately after such sale or issuance, by
(D) the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock as of the date of such issuance or sale. Upon each such adjustment of the Warrant Purchase Price hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares
which may be obtained upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased to the number of shares determined by multiplying (x) the number of Warrant Shares which could be obtained upon exercise
of such Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Warrant Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment and the
denominator of which shall be the Warrant Purchase Price in effect immediately after such adjustment. Adjustments shall be made successively whenever such an issuance or sale is made. 

    (b) For
the purpose of determining the adjusted Warrant Purchase Price under Section 4.4(a), the following shall
be applicable: 

    (i)  Issuance of Options.  If the Company in any manner issues or grants any Options or Convertible
Securities and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities is less than the Fair Market Value
per share of Common Stock determined as of the date of such issuance or grant of such Options, then the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Options (or
upon conversion or exchange of the total maximum amount of such Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options) 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 Common Stock is issuable upon exercise of Options or upon conversion or exchange of
Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of Options 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 Options, plus the minimum aggregate 

6

 

amount of additional consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise of all such Options, plus in the case of such Options 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 Options or upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities issuable upon the
exercise of such Options. 

    (ii)  Issuance of Convertible Securities.  If the Company in any manner issues or grants any Convertible
Securities having an exercise or conversion or exchange price per share of Common Stock which is less than the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock 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 Common Stock is 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)  Change in Equity Price or Conversion Rate.  If the purchase price provided for in any Options, 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 Common Stock changes at any time, then the Warrant Purchase Price in effect at the time of such change shall be readjusted to the Warrant Purchase Price which would have been in effect at such
time had such Options or Convertible Securities still outstanding provided for such changed purchase price, additional consideration or changed conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time
initially granted, issued or sold and the number of Warrant Shares shall be correspondingly readjusted. 

    (iv)  Calculation of Consideration Received.  If any Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are
issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold for cash, then the consideration received therefor shall be deemed to be the net amount received by the Company therefor. If any Common Stock,
Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for consideration other than cash, then the amount of consideration received by the Company shall be the fair value of such consideration
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, subject to the Holder's rights under Section 4.8(e). 

    (v)  Treasury Shares.  The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time does not include
shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, and the disposition of any shares so owned or held shall be considered an issue or sale of Common Stock. 

    (vi)  Record Date.  If the Company takes a record of the holders of Common Stock for the purpose of
entitling them (A) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities or (B) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock, Options or
Convertible Securities, then such record date shall be deemed to be the date of the issuance or sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such
dividend or the making of such distribution or the date of the granting or such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may be. 

    (c) No
adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 4.4 with respect to the issuance of Excluded Securities. 

7

 

    4.5  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 Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, or 4.6, and, pursuant to the terms of such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, combination, sale, transfer or other disposition of assets, (i) shares of capital stock of the successor or acquiring person or 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 the 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 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 4.8(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 Required Holders may approve
in writing (and memorialized by resolutions 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 4.5. For purposes of this Section 4, "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 4.5 shall similarly apply to successive
reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers and other
dispositions of assets. 

    4.6  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 4.5, 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 

8

 

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
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. 

    4.7  Other Dilutive Events.  If any event occurs as to which the other provisions of this  Section 4 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 Required Holders may appoint on behalf of the Company an investment banking or accounting firm of
recognized national standing 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. 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. If an adjustment is made pursuant to this Section 4.7, the fees
and expenses of such investment banking or accounting firm shall be borne by the Company. If, however, no adjustment is made, the Holders of the Lender Warrants who approved the appointment of such
investment banking or accounting firm shall bear such fees and expenses. 

    4.8  Other Provisions Applicable to Adjustments Under this Section.  The following provisions shall be
applicable to the adjustments provided for pursuant to this Section 4: 

    (a)  When Adjustments To be Made.  The adjustments required by this Section 4 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 4 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 4.1
would apply, but shall, thereafter and before the distribution to stockholders, 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 4, the Company shall, as soon as practicable
but in no event more than five (5) Business Days thereafter, 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 4.5) 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 to the Holder (by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid) a
signed copy of such certificate prior to the end of the five (5) Business Day period referenced above. 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 this Warrant or the Warrant Shares under this Section 4, such determination may
be challenged or disputed by the Required Holders. If the Required Holders wish to challenge or dispute any such fair market value determination, the Required Holders shall furnish written notice to
the Company of their intention to challenge the same. If the Company and the Required Holders cannot resolve the dispute between or among themselves, then such dispute shall be submitted for final
determination to an investment banking or accounting firm pursuant to the valuation procedures set forth in clause (ii) under the definition of Fair Market Value. The Company shall bear all
fees, costs and expenses inured by the Company and the Required Holders in connection with the determination of the Fair Market Value of this Warrant or the Warrant Shares,
and any challenge or dispute thereof, including, without limitation, all fees and expenses of any investment banking, valuation or accounting firm(s) engaged by the Company or the Required Holders and
of attorneys in connection with such calculation; provided, however, that the Holders of the Lender Warrants who approved the appointment of the
investment banking or accounting firm in connection with such determination shall bear all such fees, costs and expenses if, after the Required Holders challenge or dispute any fair market value
determination by the Board of Directors of the Company, the difference between (a) the fair market value determined pursuant to the valuation procedures set forth in clause (ii) under
the definition of Fair Market Value and (b) the fair market value determined by the Required Holders, is less than five percent (5.0%) of the fair market value determined by the Board of
Directors of the Company. 

    (f)  Independent Application.  Except as otherwise provided herein, all subsections of this  Section 4 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. 

    4.9  Fiduciary Duties of Company.  The Company and its directors shall owe the Holder the same fiduciary
duties that the Company and its directors would owe to the Warrant Shares underlying the Warrant. 

    5.  MISCELLANEOUS.  

    5.1  Restrictive Legend.  This Warrant and, unless registered under the Securities Act, any Warrant
Shares issued upon exercise hereof shall be stamped or imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form (in addition to any legends required under applicable state securities laws):

REQUIREMENTS OF SUCH STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION AND QUALIFICATION. 

10

 

    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 that is reasonably acceptable to the Company (provided that O'Melveny & Myers 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. 

    5.2  Holder Entitled to Benefits Under Registration Rights Agreement.  The Holder of this Warrant is
entitled to certain rights, benefits and privileges with respect to this Warrant and the Warrant Shares pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement (it being understood that the Warrant
Shares constitute "Registrable Securities" thereunder). 

    5.3  Other Covenants.  Without limiting the generality of  Section 5.2, the Company covenants and agrees that, as long as this Warrant remains
outstanding or any Warrant Shares are issuable with respect

authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock; (b) the Holder shall, upon the exercise thereof in accordance with the terms hereof, receive good

same extent as the shareholders of the Company. 

    5.4  Issue Tax.  The issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be made

Warrant or of any Warrant Shares in any manner which interferes with the timely exercise hereof.

of the Company or any other matter, (b) the right to receive dividends, except as set forth in Section 4, or (c) any other rights
as a stockholder of the Company, except as set forth in Section 4. 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.

    This
Warrant shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company, the Holder and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and shall include, with respect to the
Company, any person succeeding the Company by merger, consolidation, combination or acquisition of all or substantially all of the Company's assets, and in such case, except as expressly provided

or interpreting this Warrant. All section, preamble, recital, exhibit, schedule, disclosure schedule, annex, clause and party references are to this Warrant unless otherwise stated. No party, nor its
counsel, shall be deemed the drafter of this Warrant for purposes of construing the provisions of this Warrant, and all provisions of this Warrant shall be construed in accordance with their fair
meaning, and not strictly for or against any party. 

    5.11  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 this Warrant or stock certificate, the Company shall make and deliver to the Holder,

charter documents or regulations or through any reorganization, reclassification, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, 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 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. The Company shall not be required to register the Warrant Shares under the
Securities Act except pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement.

    5.14  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 connection with the enforcement of its rights and remedies hereunder.

costs and expenses of appeals, incurred or expended by the Holder in connection with the enforcement of this Warrant or the collection of any sums due hereunder, whether or not a suit is commenced.
None of the rights, powers or remedies conferred under this Warrant shall be mutually exclusive, and each right, power or remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other right, power or remedy
whether conferred by this Warrant or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.

Warrant Shares being purchased. 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 ten (10) Business Days after this Warrant has been exercised (or, if applicable, after the conditions set forth in  Section 3 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 ten (10) Business Days after this Warrant has been surrendered, execute and
deliver to the Holder a new Warrant of like tenor representing the number of Warrant Shares that have not been exercised. Each stock certificate representing the number of Warrant Shares purchased or
purchasable under this Warrant shall be registered in the name of the Holder or, subject to compliance with Applicable Law, such other name as may be designated by the Holder. 

    2.2  Payment of Warrant Purchase Price.  Payment of the Warrant Purchase Price may be made, at the option
of the Holder, by (i) certified, cashier's or company check, (ii) wire transfer, (iii) instructing the Company to withhold and cancel a number of Warrant Shares then issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the excess 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 shares being purchased, (iv) surrender 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 shares
then being purchased or (v) any combination of the foregoing. The Company shall not issue fractional shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant and, in lieu thereof, shall pay to
the Holder cash equal to the Warrant Purchase Price multiplied by such fraction. 

    3.  ANTI-TRUST NOTIFICATION.  If the Company or the Holder determines, in its sole judgment
upon the advice of counsel, that an exercise of this Warrant pursuant to the terms hereof would be subject to the provisions of the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as
amended (the "HSR Act"), the Company shall, within twenty (20) Business Days after (a) receiving a notice from the Holder of the
applicability of the HSR Act or (b) after such a determination by the Company, file with the United States Federal Trade Commission (the "FTC")
and the United States Department of Justice (the "DOJ") the notification and report form and any supplemental information required to be filed by it
pursuant to the HSR Act in connection with the exercise of this Warrant. Any such notification and report form and supplemental information will be in full compliance with the requirements of the HSR
Act. The Company will furnish to the Holder promptly (but in no event more than five (5) Business Days) such information and assistance as the Holder may reasonably request in connection with
the preparation of any filing or submission required to be filed by the Holder under 

4

 

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 periodically and at the Holder's request of the status of any communications with, and any inquiries or requests
for additional information from, the FTC or the DOJ. 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 in connection with such filings and all costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and expenses) incurred by the Company
and the Holder in connection with the preparation of such filings and responses to inquiries or requests. In the event that this Section 3 is
applicable to any exercise of this Warrant, the purchase by the Holder of the Warrant Shares subject to the Exercise Notice, and the payment by the Holder of the Warrant Purchase Price, shall be
subject to the expiration or earlier termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act. 

    4.  ADJUSTMENTS TO THE NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES AND TO THE WARRANT PURCHASE PRICE.  The number of Warrant
Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable and the Warrant Purchase Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 4. 

    4.1  Stock Dividends, Subdivisions and Combinations.  If at any time the Company: 

    (a) pays
a dividend or makes any other distribution with respect to 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 into a larger number of shares of Common Stock, or 

    (c) combines
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, as the case may be, 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, as the case
may be, had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such record date or effective date. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 4.1  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 to 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. 

    4.2  Issuance of Options.  If at any time the Company issues (without payment of any consideration) to
all holders of outstanding Common Stock any Options, the Company shall also distribute such Options to the Holder as if this Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to the effective date of such
issuance. 

    4.3  Distribution of Assets or Securities.  If at any time the Company makes a distribution to its
stockholders (other than in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company) of any asset or security other than those referred to in Sections 4.1,
4.2 or 4.5, 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 stockholders entitled to receive such distribution, multiplied by a fraction (which shall not be less than zero), the numerator
of which shall be 

5

 

the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the date fixed for such determination, less 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, 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 stockholders entitled to receive such distribution. Upon any adjustment in the Warrant Purchase Price as provided in this Section 4.3  the number of shares of Common Stock 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. 

    4.4  Issuance of Equity Securities Under Certain Circumstances.  

    (a) If,
at any time after the date hereof, the Company shall issue or sell (or, in accordance with Section 4.4(b)  shall be deemed to have issued or sold) any shares of Common Stock (other than Excluded
Securities) without consideration or for a consideration per share that is less than the
Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock as determined as of the date of such issuance or sale, then, effective immediately upon such issuance or sale, the Warrant Purchase Price shall be reduced
(calculated to the nearest $.001 and without regard to any other provisions of this Section 4) to an amount equal to the product obtained by
multiplying (i) the Warrant Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance or sale, by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the sum of (A) the product
obtained by multiplying (1) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (on a Fully Diluted Basis) immediately prior to such issuance or sale by (2) the Fair Market Value per share
of Common Stock as of the date of such issuance or sale, plus (B) the cash consideration, if any, received by the Company upon such issuance or
sale, and the denominator of which shall be the product obtained by multiplying (C) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (on a Fully Diluted Basis) immediately after such sale or
issuance, by (D) the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock as of the date of such issuance or sale. Upon each such adjustment of the Warrant Purchase Price hereunder, the number of
Warrant Shares which may be obtained upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased to the number of shares determined by multiplying (x) the number of Warrant Shares which could be obtained
upon exercise of such Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Warrant Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment
and the denominator of which shall be the Warrant Purchase Price in effect immediately after such adjustment. Adjustments shall be made successively whenever such an issuance or sale is made. 

    (b) For
the purpose of determining the adjusted Warrant Purchase Price under Section 4.4(a), the following shall
be applicable: 

    (i)  Issuance of Options.  If the Company in any manner issues or grants any Options or Convertible
Securities and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities is less than the Fair Market Value
per share of Common Stock determined as of the date of such issuance or grant of such Options, then the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Options (or
upon conversion or exchange of the total maximum amount of such Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options) 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 Common Stock is issuable upon exercise of Options or upon conversion or exchange of
Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of Options 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 Options, plus the minimum aggregate 

6

 

amount of additional consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise of all such Options, plus in the case of such Options 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 Options or upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities issuable upon the
exercise of such Options. 

    (ii)  Issuance of Convertible Securities.  If the Company in any manner issues or grants any Convertible
Securities having an exercise or conversion or exchange price per share of Common Stock which is less than the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock 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 Common Stock is 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)  Change in Equity Price or Conversion Rate.  If the purchase price provided for in any Options, 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 Common Stock changes at any time, then the Warrant Purchase Price in effect at the time of such change shall be readjusted to the Warrant Purchase Price which would have been in effect at such
time had such Options or Convertible Securities still outstanding provided for such changed purchase price, additional consideration or changed conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time
initially granted, issued or sold and the number of Warrant Shares shall be correspondingly readjusted. 

    (iv)  Calculation of Consideration Received.  If any Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are
issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold for cash, then the consideration received therefor shall be deemed to be the net amount received by the Company therefor. If any Common Stock,
Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for consideration other than cash, then the amount of consideration received by the Company shall be the fair value of such consideration
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, subject to the Holder's rights under Section 4.8(e). 

    (v)  Treasury Shares.  The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time does not include
shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, and the disposition of any shares so owned or held shall be considered an issue or sale of Common Stock. 

    (vi)  Record Date.  If the Company takes a record of the holders of Common Stock for the purpose of
entitling them (A) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities or (B) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock, Options or
Convertible Securities, then such record date shall be deemed to be the date of the issuance or sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such
dividend or the making of such distribution or the date of the granting or such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may be. 

    (c) No
adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 4.4 with respect to the issuance of Excluded Securities.  

7

 
    4.5  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 Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, or 4.6, and, pursuant to the terms of such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, combination, sale, transfer or other disposition of assets, (i) shares of capital stock of the successor or acquiring person or 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 the 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 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 4.8(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 Required Holders may approve
in writing (and memorialized by resolutions 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 4.5. For purposes of this
Section 4, "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 4.5
shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers and other dispositions of assets. 

    4.6  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 4.5,
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 

8

 

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
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. 

    4.7  Other Dilutive Events.  If any event occurs as to which the other provisions of this  Section 4 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 Required Holders may appoint on behalf of the Company an investment banking or accounting firm of
recognized national standing 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. 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. If an adjustment is made pursuant to this Section 4.7, the fees
and expenses of such investment banking or accounting firm shall be borne by the Company. If, however, no adjustment is made, the Holders of the Lender Warrants who approved the appointment of such
investment banking or accounting firm shall bear such fees and expenses. 

    4.8  Other Provisions Applicable to Adjustments Under this Section.  The following provisions shall be
applicable to the adjustments provided for pursuant to this Section 4:

    (a)  When Adjustments To be Made.  The adjustments required by this Section 4 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 4 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 4.1  would apply, but shall, thereafter and before the
distribution to stockholders, 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 4, the Company shall, as soon as practicable
but in no event more than five (5) Business Days thereafter, 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 4.5) 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 

9

 

Purchase Price, after giving effect to such adjustment, recalculation or change. The Company shall mail to the Holder (by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid) a
signed copy of such certificate prior to the end of the five (5) Business Day period referenced above. 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 this Warrant or the Warrant Shares under this Section 4, such determination may
be challenged or disputed by the Required Holders. If the Required Holders wish to challenge or dispute any such fair market value determination, the Required Holders shall furnish written notice to
the Company of their intention to challenge the same. If the Company and the Required Holders cannot resolve the dispute between or among themselves, then such dispute shall be submitted for final
determination to an investment banking or accounting firm pursuant to the valuation procedures set forth in clause (ii) under the definition of Fair Market Value. The Company shall bear all
fees, costs and expenses inured by the Company and the Required Holders in connection with the determination of the Fair Market Value of this Warrant or the Warrant Shares, and any challenge or
dispute thereof, including, without limitation, all fees and expenses of any investment banking, valuation or accounting firm(s) engaged by the Company or the Required Holders and of attorneys in
connection with such calculation; provided, however, that the Holders of the Lender
Warrants who approved the appointment of the investment banking or accounting firm in connection with such determination shall bear all such fees, costs and expenses if, after the Required Holders
challenge or dispute any fair market value determination by the Board of Directors of the Company, the difference between (a) the fair market value determined pursuant to the valuation
procedures set forth in clause (ii) under the definition of Fair Market Value and (b) the fair market value determined by the Required Holders, is less than five percent (5.0%) of the
fair market value determined by the Board of Directors of the Company. 

    (f)  Independent Application.  Except as otherwise provided herein, all subsections of this  Section 4 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. 

    4.9  Fiduciary Duties of Company.  The Company and its directors shall owe the Holder the same fiduciary
duties that the Company and its directors would owe to the Warrant Shares underlying the Warrant. 

    5.  MISCELLANEOUS.  

    5.1  Restrictive Legend.  This Warrant and, unless registered under the Securities Act, any Warrant
Shares issued upon exercise hereof shall be stamped or imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form (in addition to any legends required under applicable state securities laws): 

THIS
WARRANT AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE HEREOF HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR REGISTERED OR QUALIFIED UNDER ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES
LAWS, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE ASSIGNED EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF SUCH ACT AND THE REGISTRATION OR QUALIFICATION
REQUIREMENTS OF SUCH STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION AND QUALIFICATION. 

10

 

    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 that is reasonably acceptable to the Company (provided that O'Melveny & Myers 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. 

    5.2  Holder Entitled to Benefits Under Registration Rights Agreement.  The Holder of this Warrant is
entitled to certain rights, benefits and privileges with respect to this Warrant and the Warrant Shares pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement (it being understood that the Warrant
Shares constitute "Registrable Securities" thereunder). 

    5.3  Other Covenants.  Without limiting the generality of Section 5.2, 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 against payment therefor, be duly authorized, validly
issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock; (b) the Holder shall, upon the exercise thereof 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 stockholder, 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 all outstanding Lender Warrants to be exercised in full; and (d) the Company shall provide the Holder with notice of all corporate actions in the same manner and to the same extent as
the shareholders of the Company. 

    5.4  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 issue tax in respect thereof. 

    5.5  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. 

    5.6  No Voting Rights; Limitation of Liability.  Except as expressly set forth in this Warrant, nothing
contained in this Warrant shall be construed as conferring upon the Holder (a) the right to vote or consent as a stockholder in respect of meetings of stockholders for the election of directors
of the Company or any other matter, (b) the right to receive dividends, except as set forth in Section 4, or (c) any other rights
as a stockholder of the Company, except as set forth in Section 4. 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. 

    5.7  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. 

    5.8  Notices.  All notices, requests, demands and other communications which are required or may be given
under this Warrant shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if transmitted by telecopier with receipt acknowledged, or upon delivery, if delivered personally or by recognized
commercial courier with receipt acknowledged, or upon the expiration of seventy-two

    5.9  Successors and Assigns.  The Company may not assign any of its rights, or delegate any of its
obligations, under this Warrant without the prior written consent of the Holder (which consent tray be withheld for any reason or no reason at all). Subject to the requirements of Applicable Laws, the
Holder may assign this Warrant or delegate its obligations, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, without the consent of the Company; provided,
however, that the Holder may not assign its rights or delegate its obligations under the Warrant to any person who is engaged in any business that is competitive with the
business of the Company and its subsidiaries. Each assignment of this Warrant shall be registered on the books of the Company to be maintained for such purpose upon surrender of this Warrant at the
Designated Office, together with appropriate instruments of assignment, duly completed and executed. Upon such surrender, the Company shall, within ten (10) Business Days of surrender, at its
own expense, execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees specified in such assignment and in the denominations specified therein and this Warrant shall
promptly be canceled. If any portion of this Warrant is not being assigned, the Company shall, at its own expense, within ten (10) Business Days issue to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the
portion not so assigned. The Company may require the Holder, as a 

12

 

condition to the execution and delivery of any new Warrant in connection with an assignment of this Warrant, to represent and warrant to the Company, and deliver an opinion of legal counsel reasonably
