Each Unit shall include the right to receive allocations of Net Profits and Net Losses and distributions from the Company.
1. WARRANT; EXERCISE PRICE.
1.1 This Warrant is issued pursuant to a Placement Agent Agreement dated June 25, 2007, by and among the Company and Brookshire Securities Corporation (“Brookshire”), pursuant to which Brookshire entered into a Selected Dealer Agreement, dated August 14, 2007, with the Warrant Holder.
1.2 Each Warrant shall entitle the Warrant Holder to purchase one Unit, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 8 herein (individually, a “Warrant Unit” severally, the “Warrant Units”). Each Warrant Unit shall provide the holder of such Unit with a capital account balance equal to the exercise price paid for such Warrant Unit.
1.3 The purchase price payable upon exercise of each Warrant (the “Exercise Price”) shall be $1.25 per Unit, or the equivalent thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Exercise Price and number of Warrant Units purchasable pursuant to this Warrant are subject to adjustment as provided in Section 8.
2. EXERCISE OF WARRANT; EXPIRATION DATE.
2.1
(a) This Warrant is exercisable at any time and from time to time commencing on October 5, 2007 (“Commencement Date”) and ending at 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time on the date set forth above (the “Expiration Date”), in whole or from time to time in part, at the option of the Warrant Holder, upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company together with a duly completed Notice of Exercise in the form attached hereto and payment of an amount equal to the then applicable Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Units then being purchased upon such exercise, except as provided in Section 2.1(b) hereunder.
(b) If the securities underlying this Warrant are adjusted in accordance with Section 8(b), into shares of common stock (“Common Stock”) and such Common Stock is subsequently registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Warrant Holder may elect to pay all or part of the Exercise Price by surrendering shares of Common Stock to the Company, including by allowing the Company to deduct from the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant, a number of such shares which has an aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the average of the last sale price (defined hereunder) of the Common Stock for the 20 consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date of exercise of this Warrant, equal to the aggregate Exercise Price. In the event that the Warrant Holder elects to utilize the “cashless exercise” procedure contained in Section 2.1(b), this Warrant is exercisable upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company together with a duly completed Notice of Exercise in the form attached hereto and surrender of that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the aggregate Exercise Price determined in accordance with this Section 2.1(b)(i) or (ii). “Fair Market Value” per share of Common Stock on any relevant date shall be determined in accordance with the following provisions:
(i) If the Common Stock is at the time traded on the NASD OTC Bulletin Board or other electronic quotation service, then the Fair Market Value shall be the average of the last sale price per share of the Common Stock for the 20 consecutive trading days preceding the date of exercise of this Warrant; or
(ii) If the Common Stock is at the time listed on any Exchange, then the Fair Market Value shall be the average of the last sale price per share of the Common Stock for the 20 consecutive trading days preceding the date of exercise of this Warrant, on the Exchange determined to be the primary market for the Common Stock. "Exchange" shall mean any organization, association, or group of persons, whether incorporated or unincorporated, which constitutes, maintains, or provides a market place or facilities for bringing together purchasers and sellers of securities or for otherwise performing with respect to securities the functions commonly performed by a stock exchange as that term is generally understood, and includes the market place and the market facilities maintained by such exchange.

2.2 Each exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the day on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered to the Company as provided in Section 2.1. At such time, the person or persons in whose name or names any certificates for Warrant Units shall be issuable upon such exercise as provided in Section 2.3 below shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the Warrant Units represented by such certificates.
2.3 Within three business days after the exercise of the purchase right represented by this Warrant, the Company at its expense will use its reasonable best efforts to cause to be issued in the name of, and delivered to, the Warrant Holder, or, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, to such other individual or entity as such Warrant Holder (upon payment by such Warrant Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct:
(a) a certificate or certificates for the number of full Warrant Units to which such Warrant Holder shall be entitled upon such exercise , and
(b) in case such exercise is in part only, a new Warrant or Warrants (dated the date hereof) of like tenor, stating on the face or faces thereof the number of Units currently stated on the face of this Warrant minus the number of such Units purchased by the Warrant Holder upon such exercise as provided in Section 2.2 (in each case prior to any adjustments made thereto pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant).
3. REGISTRATION AND TRANSFER ON COMPANY BOOKS.
3.1 The Company (or an agent of the Company) will maintain a register containing the names and addresses of the Warrant Holders. Any Warrant Holder may change its, his or her address as shown on the warrant register by written notice to the Company requesting such change.
3.2 The Company shall register upon its books any transfer of a Warrant upon surrender of same as provided in Section 5.
4. RESERVATION OF UNITS. The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery upon the exercise of this Warrant, such Warrant Units and other stock, securities and property, as from time to time shall be issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant. As long as the Warrant shall be outstanding, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Warrant Units issuable upon exercise of the Warrants to be listed (subject to official notice of issuance) on each Exchange (or, if applicable on Nasdaq, NASD OTC Bulletin Board or Pink Sheets, LLC or any successor electronic quotation service and trading market) on which the Company's Membership Interests are then listed and/or quoted, if any.

7. TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS.
(a) 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 Warrant 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 and reasonably satisfactory to counsel for the Company) 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, (iii) that transferee agree in writing with the Company to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Warrant applicable to the Warrant Holder and (iv) that the transferee be an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

8. ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF UNITS DELIVERABLE. The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Units purchasable pursuant to each Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as hereinafter set forth in this Section 8:
(a) In case, prior to the expiration of this Warrant by exercise or by its terms, the Company shall issue any additional units of Membership Interest as a dividend or subdivide the number of outstanding Units into a greater number of units of Membership Interest, then in either of such cases, the then applicable Exercise Price per Warrant Unit purchasable pursuant to this Warrant in effect at the time of such action shall be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Units at that time purchasable pursuant to this Warrant shall be proportionately increased; and conversely, in the event the Company shall reduce the number of outstanding units of Membership Interest by combining such units into a smaller number of units of Membership Interest then, in such case, the then applicable Exercise Price per Warrant Unit purchasable pursuant to this Warrant in effect at the time of such action shall be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Units at that time purchasable pursuant to this Warrant shall be proportionately decreased. If the Company shall, at any time during the life of this Warrant, declare a dividend payable in cash on its Membership Interest and shall at substantially the same time offer to its stockholders a right to purchase new units of Membership Interest from the proceeds of such dividend or for an amount substantially equal to the dividend, all units of Membership Interest so issued shall, for the purpose of this Warrant, be deemed to have been issued as a dividend. Any dividend paid or distributed upon the Membership Interests in units of any other class of securities convertible into units of Membership Interest shall be treated as a dividend paid in units of Membership Interest to the extent that units of Membership Interest are issuable upon conversion thereof.
6
(b) In case, prior to the expiration of this Warrant by exercise or by its terms, the Company shall be recapitalized by reclassifying its outstanding units of Membership Interest, (or the Company or a successor corporation shall consolidate or merge with or convey all or substantially all of its or of any successor corporation’s property and assets to any other corporation or corporations (any such other corporations being included within the meaning of the term “successor corporation” hereinbefore used in the event of any consolidation or merger of any such other corporation with, or the sale of all or substantially all of the property of any such other corporation to, another corporation or corporations), then, as a condition of such recapitalization, consolidation, merger or conveyance, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby the holder of this Warrant shall thereafter have the right to purchase, upon the basis and on the terms and conditions specified in this Warrant, in lieu of the Warrant Units theretofore purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or assets, as may be issued or payable with respect to, or in exchange for, the number of Warrant Units theretofore purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant had such recapitalization, consolidation, merger, or conveyance not taken place, and the exercise price for which shall have been appropriately adjusted to reflect the number of securities which the Warrant Holder is entitled to purchase in exchange for such Warrant; and in any such event, the rights of the Warrant Holder to any adjustment in the number of Warrant Units purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant, as herein provided, shall continue and be preserved in respect of any stock which the Warrant Holder becomes entitled to purchase.
(c) In case the Company at any time while this Warrant shall remain unexpired and unexercised shall sell all or substantially all of its property or dissolve, liquidate, or wind up its affairs, lawful provision shall be made as part of the terms of any such sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, so that the holder of this Warrant may thereafter receive upon exercise hereof in lieu of each Warrant Unit that it would have been entitled to receive, the same kind and amount of any securities or assets as may be issuable, distributable or payable upon any such sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up with respect to each Unit of the Company, provided, however, that in any case of any such sale or of dissolution, liquidation or winding up, the right to exercise this Warrant shall terminate on a date fixed by the Company; such date so fixed to be not earlier than 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on the forty-fifth day next succeeding the date on which notice of such termination of the right to exercise this Warrant has been given by mail to the registered holder of this Warrant at its address as it appears on the books of the Company.

10. RIGHTS OF THE HOLDER. The Warrant Holder shall not, by virtue hereof, be entitled to any rights of a member in the Company, either at law or equity, and the rights of the Warrant Holder are limited to those expressed in this Warrant and are not enforceable against the Company except to the extent set forth herein. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a member of the Company prior to the Exercise Date and then only with respect to the Warrant Units to be issued with respect thereto.
11. NOTICES OF RECORD DATE. In case:
(a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Units (or other stock or securities at the time deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant) for the purpose of entitling or enabling them to receive any dividend or other distribution, or to receive any right to subscribe for or purchase any Membership Interests or any other securities, or to receive any other right, or

2.2.1 At any time and from time to time during the Warrant exercise period, whenever the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement, the Company will prior to such filing give written notice to Holder of its intention to do so and, upon the written request of Holder given within ten (10) days after the Company provides such notice, the Company shall use its good faith efforts to cause all Registrable Securities which the Company has been requested by Holder to register to be registered under the Securities Act to the extent necessary to permit their sale or other disposition in accordance with the intended methods of distribution specified in the request of Holder; provided that the Company shall have the right to postpone or withdraw any registration effected pursuant to this Section 2 without obligation or liability to Holder. In the Holder’s request, the Holder will be required to describe briefly its proposed disposition of the Registrable Securities. However, in connection with any registration under Section 2, the Holder’s Registrable Securities shall be junior and subordinate to any registration rights granted by the Company which are already outstanding, and any senior registration rights granted by the Company in the future.
2.2.2 In connection with any registration under Section 2 involving an underwritten offering of the Company’s securities, the Company shall not be required to include any Registrable Securities in such underwriting unless Holder accepts the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters selected by it, and then only in such quantity as will not, in the sole discretion of the underwriters, jeopardize the success of the offering by the Company. If in the sole discretion of the managing underwriter or underwriters the registration of all, or part of, the Registrable Securities which Holder has requested to be included would adversely affect such public offering, then the Company shall be required to include in the underwriting only that number of Registrable Securities, if any, which the managing underwriter or underwriters believe may be sold without causing such adverse effect. If the number of Registrable Securities to be included in the underwriting in accordance with the foregoing is less than the total number of shares which Holder has requested to be included, then Holder and each participant other than the Company in such underwriting shall participate in the underwriting pro rata based upon their total ownership of Registrable Securities. Any such limitation shall be imposed in such manner so as to avoid any diminution in the number of shares the Company may register for sale by giving first priority for the shares to be registered for issuance and sale by the Company and the underwriter, and by giving second priority for the shares to be registered for sale by any holder of Registrable Securities pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
16
2.2.3 In connection with any registration under Section 2 involving a selling stockholder registration statement or any other registration statement not involving an underwritten offering of the Company’s securities, the Company reserves the right to include only that number of Registrable Securities, if any, as it shall determine in its sole discretion, may be sold without jeopardizing the success of the offering or having an adverse effect on the offering. If the number of Registrable Securities to be included in the offering in accordance with the foregoing is less than the total number of shares which Holder has requested to be included, then Holder and each participant other than the Company in such offering shall participate in the offering pro rata based upon their total ownership of Registrable Securities. Any such limitation shall be imposed in such manner so as to avoid any diminution in the number of shares the Company may register for sale by giving first priority for the shares to be registered for issuance and sale by the Company, and by giving second priority for the shares to be registered for sale by any holder of Registrable Securities pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
2.2.4 Withdrawal. Any holder of Registrable Securities may elect to withdraw such holder’s request for inclusion of Registrable Securities in any Piggy-Back Registration by giving written notice to the Company of such request to withdraw prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement. The Company may also elect to withdraw a registration statement at any time prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding any such withdrawal, the Company shall pay all expenses incurred by the holders of Registrable Securities in connection with such Piggy-Back Registration as provided in Section 4.
3. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES.
3.1 When the Company proposes to effect the registration of any of the Registrable Securities under the Securities Act, the Company shall:
3.1.1 furnish to the Holder such number of copies of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus included therein (including each preliminary Prospectus) as the Holder reasonably may request to facilitate the public sale or disposition of the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement;
3.1.2 use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the Holder’s Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement under the securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions within the United States as the Holder may reasonably request, provided, however, that the Company shall not for any such purpose be required to qualify generally to transact business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where it is not so qualified or to consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction; and
17
3.1.3 list the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement with any Trading Market on which the Common Stock of the Company is then listed.
4. REGISTRATION EXPENSES. All expenses relating to the Company’s compliance with Sections 2 and 3 hereof, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel and independent public accountants for the Company, fees and expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred in connection with complying with state securities or “blue sky” laws, fees of the NASD, transfer taxes, fees of transfer agents and registrars are called “Registration Expenses”. All selling commissions applicable to the sale of Registrable Securities, including any fees and disbursements of any counsel to the Holders, are called “Selling Expenses” and shall be the responsibility of the Holder. The Company shall only be responsible for all Registration Expenses.
5. INDEMNIFICATION.
5.1 In the event of a registration of the Registrable Securities, the Holder (subject to the provisions of Section 5.2) will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, and its officers, directors and each other person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, against all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company or such persons may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact which was furnished in writing by the Holder to the Company expressly for use in (and such information is contained in) the Registration Statement under which such Registrable Securities were registered under the Securities Act pursuant to the Warrant, any preliminary Prospectus or final Prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Company and each such person for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, provided, however, that such Holder will be liable in any such case if and only to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon said Holder’s untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of said Holder specifically for use in any such document, or (ii) in connection with a Holder’s sale of Registrable Securities, including without limitation alleged violations of Regulation M. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph, no Holder shall be required to indemnify any person or entity in excess of the amount of the aggregate net proceeds received by said Holder in respect of Registrable Securities in connection with any such registration under the Securities Act.
5.2 Promptly after receipt by a party entitled to claim indemnification hereunder (an “Indemnified Party”) of notice of the commencement of any action, such Indemnified Party shall, if a claim for indemnification in respect thereof is to be made against a party hereto obligated to indemnify such Indemnified Party (an “Indemnifying Party”), notify the Indemnifying Party in writing thereof, but the omission so to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to such Indemnified Party other than under this Section 5.2 and shall only relieve it from any liability which it may have to such Indemnified Party under this Section 5.2 if and to the extent the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such omission. In case any such action shall be brought against any Indemnified Party and it shall notify the Indemnifying Party of the commencement thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent it shall wish, to assume and undertake the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, and, after notice from the Indemnifying Party to such Indemnified Party of its election so to assume and undertake the defense thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to such Indemnified Party under this Section 5.2 for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof; if the Indemnified Party retains its own counsel, then the Indemnified Party shall pay all fees, costs and expenses of such counsel, provided, however, that, if the defendants in any such action include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and if counsel shall have reasonably concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to the Indemnified Party which are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party or if the interests of the Indemnified Party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the Indemnifying Party in either case which would prohibit such counsel from representing both parties under applicable conflicts of interest rules of professional ethics, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to select one separate counsel and to assume such legal defenses and otherwise to participate in the defense of such action, with the reasonable expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other expenses related to such participation to be reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party as incurred. Neither party shall settle any proceeding for which indemnification is sought without the written consent of the other party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.
18
5.3 Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, each Holder shall be treated individually and separately from all other Holders under this Section 5, and will not become the subject of any obligation under this Section 5 as a result of any action, failure to act, statement, omission, or otherwise of any other Holder hereunder.
