Further, any Permitted Transfer of the Warrant must comply with the legend set forth on the first page of this Warrant and be accompanied by surrender, in person or by duly authorized attorney, of this Warrant together with the Assignment Form attached hereto as Exhibit A properly endorsed.

The Company agrees that if at the time of the surrender of this Warrant for exercise the Warrantholder hereof shall be entitled to exercise this Warrant, the Shares so purchased shall be deemed to be issued to such Warrantholder as the record owner of such Shares as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been exercised as aforesaid.

3.
Alternative Exercise. At any time, the Warrantholder of record hereof may, at such Warrantholder's sole option, in lieu of making payment upon exercise in accordance with the provisions of Section 2 above and to the extent permitted by applicable statutes and regulations, elect to receive shares of Common Stock equal to the value (as determined below) of this Warrant by surrender of the Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with notice of such election in which event the Company shall issue to such Warrantholder that number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula:

Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonable satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction, or mutilation of this Warrant, and in case of loss, theft, or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it, and upon reimbursement to the Company of all reasonable expenses incidental thereto, and upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor, in lieu of this Warrant.

The adjustment shall be such as will give the Warrantholder of the Warrant on exercise for the same aggregate Warrant Price the total number, class and kind of shares as he would have owned had the Warrant be exercised prior to the event and had he continued to hold such Shares until after the event requiring adjustment.
 
11.
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 Common Stock upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant.

The two appraisers shall promptly select a third independent qualified appraiser, who shall be experienced in such appraisals. If the two appraisers are unable to select a third appraiser within 30 days, the third appraiser shall be selected by the highest official of the Orange County Office of the American Arbitration Association. The third appraiser shall determine the Fair Market Value within thirty (30) days after such appraiser's selection, which shall notify the Warrantholder of such determination. The cost and expense of any such appraisal shall be borne equally by such Warrantholder and the Company.
