Section 1.
Exercise
(a)
General. This Warrant represents the right of the Holder to purchase up to 16,000,000 Warrant Shares (subject to adjustment as set forth herein), which may be purchased through one or more exercises of this Warrant, at any time and from time to time, from and after the Exercise Price Determination Date as defined in Section (b) of this Section 1 until the earlier of (y) the twentieth anniversary of the date of issuance of this Warrant (the Issue Date) and (z) the tenth anniversary of the date the Company shall have irrevocably reserved a sufficient number of duly authorized shares of Common Stock for issuance upon full exercise of the Warrant (such date being hereinafter called the Termination Date). If duly authorized and reserved shares of Common Stock are not available for issuance upon exercise of the Wa rrant by the fifth anniversary of the Issue Date, the Holder may put the Warrant to the Company, in whole but not in part, for a price equal to the sum of (i) the Warrant Purchase Price and (ii) 8% per annum times the Warrant Purchase Price, compounded annually from the Issue Date.

(b)
Exercise Price.
The exercise price per share of Common Stock purchased upon any exercise of the Warrant (the Exercise Price) shall be equal to the average of the closing price of the Common Stock as reported on the OTC Bulletin Board on each trading day during the period commencing on the date of this Agreement and ending one hundred eighty (180) trading days following but not including the date of issuance of the Warrant, calculated as of the close of trading on such one hundred eightieth trading day (the Exercise Price Determination Date).
(c)
Mechanics of Exercise.
(1)
Exercise of Warrant. This Warrant shall be exercisable by the Holder, for all or any portion of the Warrant Shares, by delivery to the Company of a duly executed Notice of Exercise (in the form annexed hereto) at the address set forth in Section 4(j) of the Warrant (or at such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered Holder at the address of such Holder appearing on the books of the Company).
(2)
Delivery of Certificates Upon Exercise. Certificates for shares purchased hereunder shall be transmitted by the transfer agent of the Company to the Holder by physical delivery to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise Form within seven (7) Calendar Days from the receipt by the Company of the Notice of Exercise Form, and upon surrender of this Warrant and payment of the Warrant Shares purchased. This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised on the date the payment of the Warrant Shares purchased is 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 Warrant Shares purchased and all taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, prior to the issuance of such shares, have been paid.
(3)
Delivery of New Warrant 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 purchased upon such exercise, deliver to Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of Holder to exercise the Warrant for the number of unexercised Warrant Shares, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.
(4)
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, in its sole discretion, either (i) pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Exercise Price, or (ii) round up the fractional share to one whole share.
(5)
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 reasonable and usual taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates shall be issued in the name of the Holder.

(6)
Closing of Books. The Company will not close its stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof.
Section 2.
Transfer of Warrant
(a)
Transferability. Upon notice duly given to the Company, this Warrant may be transferred, in whole or in part, by the Holder, only to investment funds managed by Value Fund Advisors, LLC.
(b)
Warrant Register. The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose, in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time.

Section 3.
Certain Adjustments
(a)
Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (A) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (B) combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (C) 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. The Exercise Price of this Warrant shall also be adjusted to refl ect any transaction described in this section.
(b)
Consolidation and Merger.

(c)
Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted as provided in this Section 3 and upon modification of the rights of the Holder of this Warrant in accordance with this Section 3, the Company shall promptly prepare a certificate of an officer of the Company, setting forth (1) the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares after such adjustment or modification, (2) a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment or modification, and (3) the manner of computing the same, and shall cause a copy of such certificate to be mailed to the Holder.
