        and

        to the
        registered Holder at the address of such Holder appearing on the books of

      c) 
        Mechanics
        of Exercise.

       

      i. 
        Authorization
        of Warrant Shares.
        The
        Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise
        of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of
        the
        purchase rights represented by this Warrant, be duly authorized, validly
        issued,
        fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges imposed
        by the Company in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect
        of
        any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).

       

      
        
          
            
            

          

          
            
            

            
              

            

          

          
            
            

          

        

      

      

      ii.  
        Delivery
        of Certificates Upon Exercise.
        Certificates for shares purchased hereunder shall be transmitted by the transfer
        agent of the Company to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s
        prime broker with the Depository Trust Company through its Deposit Withdrawal
        Agent Commission (“DWAC”)
        system
        if the Company is a participant in such system, and otherwise by physical
        delivery to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise
        within
        ten (10) Trading Days from the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise
        Form, surrender of this Warrant and payment of the aggregate Exercise Price
        as
        set forth above (“Warrant
        Share Delivery Date”).
        This
        Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised on the date the Exercise Price
        and completed Notice of Exercise are received by the Company. The Warrant
        Shares
        shall be deemed to have been issued, and Holder or any other person so
        designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of
        record
        of such shares for all purposes, as of the date the Warrant has been exercised
        by payment to the Company of the Exercise Price and all taxes required to
        be
        paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 2(c)(vi) prior to the issuance
        of such shares, have been paid.

       

      iii. 
        Delivery
        of New Warrants Upon Exercise.
        If this
        Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the time
        of
        delivery of the certificate or certificates representing Warrant Shares,
        deliver
        to Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of Holder to purchase the
        unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant
        shall
        in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.

       

      iv. 
        Rescission
        Rights.
        If the
        Company fails to cause its transfer agent to transmit to the Holder a
        certificate or certificates representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to this
        Section 2(c)(iv) by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Holder will
        have
        the right to rescind such exercise until such time as the Company causes
        its
        transfer agent to transmit such certificate or certificates.

       

      v.  
        No
        Fractional Shares or Scrip.
        No
        fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued
        upon
        the exercise of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which Holder
        would
        otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall pay
        a
        cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such
        fraction multiplied by the Exercise Price.

       

      vi. 
        Charges,
        Taxes and Expenses.
        Issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares shall be made without charge
        to the
        Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect
        of
        the issuance of such certificate, all of which taxes and expenses shall be
        paid
        by the Company, and such certificates shall be issued in the name of the
        Holder
        or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided,
        however,
        that in
        the event certificates for Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other
        than
        the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall
        be
        accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder;
        and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum
        sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.

       

      vii.
        Closing
        of Books.
        The
        Company will not close its stockholder books or records prior to the Termination
        Date in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant, pursuant
        to the terms hereof.

      
        
          
          

        

        
          2

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      Section
        3.  Certain
        Adjustments.

       

      a) 
        Stock
        Dividends and Splits.
        If the
        Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (A) pays a stock
        dividend or otherwise make a distribution or distributions on shares of its
        Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable
        in
        shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include
        any
        shares of Common Stock issued by the Company pursuant to this Warrant), (B)
        subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares,
        (C) combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares
        of
        Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (D) issues by reclassification
        of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company,
        then
        in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which
        the
        numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury
        shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the
        denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
        immediately after such event and the number of shares issuable upon exercise
        of
        this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted. Any adjustment made pursuant
        to
        this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date
        for
        the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or
        distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date
        in
        the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

       

      b) 
        Fundamental
        Transaction.
        If, at
        any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (A) the Company effects any merger
        or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (B) the Company
        effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series
        of
        related transactions, (C) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by
        the
        Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common
        Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities,
        cash or property, or (D) the Company effects any reclassification of the
        Common
        Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock
        is
        effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property
        (in any such case, a “Fundamental
        Transaction”),
        then,
        upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right
        to
        receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise
        immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the
        option of the Holder, (a) upon exercise of this Warrant, the number of shares
        of
        Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company,
        if it
        is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the
“Alternate
        Consideration”)
        receivable upon or as a result of such reorganization, reclassification,
        merger,
        consolidation or disposition of assets by a Holder of the number of shares
        of
        Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such
        event or (b) if the Company is acquired in an all cash transaction, cash
        equal
        to the value of this Warrant as determined in accordance with the Black-Scholes
        option pricing formula. For purposes of any such exercise, the determination
        of
        the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate
        Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in
        respect
        of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company
        shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a
        reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components
        of
        the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice
        as
        to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction,
        then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration
        it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental
        Transaction. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions,
        any
        successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction
        shall issue to the Holder a new warrant consistent with the foregoing provisions
        and evidencing the Holder’s right to exercise such warrant into Alternate
        Consideration. The terms of any agreement pursuant to which a Fundamental
        Transaction is effected shall include terms requiring any such successor
        or
        surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this Section 3(b) and ensuring
        that this Warrant (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted
        upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental
        Transaction.

       

      c) 
        Calculations.
        All
        calculations under this Section 3 shall be made to the nearest cent or the
        nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section
        3,
        the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding
        as of a
        given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding
        treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.

       

      d) 
        Voluntary
        Adjustment By Company.
        The
        Company may at any time during the term of this Warrant reduce the then current

      Section
        4.  Transfer
        of Warrant.

       

      a) 
        Transferability.
        Subject
        to compliance with any applicable securities laws and the conditions set
        forth
        in Sections 5(a) and 4(d) hereof and to the provisions of Section 4.1 of
        the
        Purchase Agreement, after the Initial Exercise Date this Warrant and all
        rights
        hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant
        at the principal office of the Company, together with a written assignment
        of
        this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the
        Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer
        taxes
        payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required,
        such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants
        in
        the name of the assignee or assignees and in the denomination or denominations
        specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor
        a
        new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this
        Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. A Warrant, if properly assigned, may
        be
        exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having
        a
        new Warrant issued.

       

      b) 
        New
        Warrants.
        This
        Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation
        hereof
        at the aforesaid office of the Company, together with a written notice
        specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued,
        signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with
        Section 4(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or
        combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants
        in
        exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance
        with such notice.

       

      c) 
        Warrant
        Register.
        The
        Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the
        Company for that purpose (the “Warrant
        Register”),
        in
        the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem
        and
        treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof
        for the
        purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for
        all
        other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.

      
        
          
          

        

        
          4

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      d) 
        Transfer
        Restrictions.
        If, at
        the time of the surrender of this Warrant in connection with any transfer
        of
        this Warrant, the transfer of this Warrant shall not be registered pursuant
        to
        an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and under
        applicable state securities or blue sky laws, the Company may require, as
        a
        condition of allowing such transfer (i) that the Holder or transferee of
        this
        Warrant, as the case may be, furnish to the Company a written opinion of
        counsel
        (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions
        of
        counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect that such transfer may
        be made
        without registration under the Securities Act and under applicable state
        securities or blue sky laws, (ii) that the holder or transferee execute and
        deliver to the Company an investment letter in form and substance acceptable
        to
        the Company and (iii) that the transferee be an “accredited investor” as defined
        in Rule 501(a)(1), (a)(2), (a)(3), (a)(7) or (a)(8) promulgated under the
        Securities Act or a qualified institutional buyer as defined in Rule 144A(a)
        under the Securities Act.

       

      Section
        5.  Miscellaneous.

       

      a) 
        Title
        to Warrant.
        Prior
        to the Termination Date and subject to compliance with applicable laws and
        Section 4 of this Warrant, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are
        transferable, in whole or in part, at the office or agency of the Company
        by the
        Holder in person or by duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant
        together with the Assignment Form annexed hereto properly endorsed. The
        transferee shall sign an investment letter in form and substance reasonably
        satisfactory to the Company.

       

      b) 
        No
        Rights as Shareholder Until Exercise.
        This
        Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights or other rights
        as a
        shareholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof. Upon the surrender
        of
        this Warrant and the payment of the aggregate Exercise Price, the Warrant
        Shares
        so purchased shall be and be deemed to be issued to such Holder as the record
        owner of such shares as of the close of business on the later of the date
        of
        such surrender or payment.

       

      c) 
        Loss,
        Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant.
        The
        Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably
        satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this
        Warrant
        or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss,
        theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to
        it
        (which, in the case of the Warrant, shall not include the posting of any
        bond),
        and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate,
        if
        mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate
        of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant
        or
        stock certificate.

       

      d) 
        Saturdays,
        Sundays, Holidays, etc.
        If the
        last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any
        right required or granted herein shall be a Saturday, Sunday or a legal holiday,
        then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next
        succeeding day not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday.

       

      e) 
        Authorized
        Shares.
        The
        Company covenants that during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will
        reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number
        of
        shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise
        of
        any purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company further covenants that
        its
        issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers
        who are
        charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue
        the
        necessary certificates for the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase
        rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action
        as
        may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided
        herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any
        requirements of the Trading Market upon which the Common Stock may be
        listed.

      
        
          
          

        

        
          5

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      f) 
        Further
        Assurances.
        Except
        and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall
        not
        by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate of
        incorporation or through any reorganization, 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 Holder as set forth in this Warrant
        against
        impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company
        will
        (a) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable
        therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value,
        (b)
        take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the
        Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant
        Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (c) use commercially reasonable
        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. Before taking
        any
        action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares
        for
        which this Warrant is exercisable or in the Exercise Price, the Company shall
        obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto,
        as
        may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction
        thereof.

       

      g) 
        Jurisdiction.
        All
        questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation
        of this Warrant shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of
        the
        Purchase Agreement.

       

      h) 
        Restrictions.
        The
        Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of
        this
        Warrant, if not registered, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by
        state
        and federal securities laws.

       

      i)  
        Nonwaiver
        and Expenses.
        No
        course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder
        on the
        part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice
        Holder’s rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding the fact that all rights
        hereunder terminate on the Termination Date. If the Company willfully and
        knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results
        in
        any material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to Holder such
        amounts
        as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not
        limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate
        proceedings, incurred by Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto
        or
        in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies
        hereunder.

       

      j)  
        Notices.
        Any
        notice, request or other document required or permitted to be given or delivered
        to the Holder by the Company shall be delivered in accordance with the notice
        provisions of the Purchase Agreement.

       

      k) 
        Limitation
        of Liability.
        No
        provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by Holder to exercise
        this Warrant or purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the
        rights
        or privileges of Holder, shall give rise to any liability of Holder for the
        purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether
        such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the
        Company.

       

      l)  
        Remedies.
        Holder,
        in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including
        recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights
        under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be
        adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of
        the
        provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive the defense in any
        action
        for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

       

      m) 
        Successors
        and Assigns.
        Subject
        to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations
        evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the
        successors of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder.
        The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of all
        Holders
        from time to time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by any such Holder
        or
        holder of Warrant Shares.

       

      n) 
        Amendment.
        This
        Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the
        written consent of the Company and the holders of a majority of the Shares
        and
        Warrant Shares purchased pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.

      o) 
        Severability.
        Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in
        such
        manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision
        of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such
        provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity,
        without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining
        provisions of this Warrant.

       

      p) 
        Headings.
        The
        headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and
        shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant.
