The Warrant register will show the names and addresses of the Holders, the numbers of Warrants and Warrant Shares evidenced on the face of each Warrant Certificate and the date of each Warrant Certificate.

          5.2 Absolute Ownership. The Company may deem and treat the Holders as the absolute owner(s) of the Warrant Certificates (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing thereon made by anyone), for all purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.

     SECTION 6. Transfers and Exchanges.

          6.1 Limitation on Transfers.

          (a) A Holder may not transfer, assign or encumber all or any part of this Warrant (including through the grant of participation interests) (a “Transfer”).

          (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Holder may Transfer all or any portion of this Warrant to (i) any of its Affiliates or (ii) any Qualified Purchaser who is also a Lender under the Credit Facility; provided however that any such transfer pursuant to clause (b)(ii) would not, after giving effect to such transfer, result in such transferee owning a greater or a lesser percentage of outstanding Warrants than such transferee’s pro rata share of Commitments under the Credit Facility, and provided further that in each case (i) and (ii) above the transferee shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this

Warrant Agreement, and such transfer shall be in compliance with Section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act and the Securities Act or any state (or other jurisdiction) securities or “blue sky” laws applicable to the Company or the Warrants. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) upon receipt of the consent of the Administrative Agent and Required Lenders or (y) so long as all obligations under the Credit Facility have been repaid or terminated, a Holder may transfer all or any portion of this Warrant to any Qualified Purchaser without any limitations on the number of Warrants so transferred imposed by clause (b)(ii) above.

          (c) Any purported Transfer other than in accordance with the terms of this Warrant Agreement shall be null and void, and the Company shall refuse to recognize any such Transfer for any purpose and shall not reflect in its records any change in record ownership pursuant to any such Transfer.

          6.2 Registration of Transfers. The Company shall from time to time register the transfer of any outstanding Warrant Certificates upon the records to be maintained by it for that purpose, upon surrender thereof accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company, duly executed by the Holders thereof or by the duly appointed legal representative thereof or by a duly authorized attorney. Upon any such registration of transfer, a new Warrant Certificate shall be issued to the transferee(s) and the surrendered Warrant Certificate shall be cancelled by the Company. Cancelled Warrant Certificates shall thereafter be disposed of by or at the direction of the Company in accordance with applicable law.

          6.3 Exchange of Warrant Certificates. Warrant Certificates may be exchanged at the option of the Holder(s), when surrendered to the Company during normal business hours for another Warrant Certificate or other Warrant Certificates of like tenor and representing in the aggregate a like number of Warrants. Warrant Certificates surrendered for exchange shall be cancelled by the Company. Such cancelled Warrant Certificates shall then be disposed of by the Company in accordance with applicable law.

     SECTION 7. Exercise of Warrants.

          7.1 Exercise of Warrants. A Warrant may be exercised upon surrender to the Company of the Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates evidencing the Warrants to be exercised with the form of election to purchase on the reverse thereof duly completed and signed, and upon payment to the Company of the Exercise Price, as adjusted from time to time as provided herein, for each Warrant Share then purchased. Payment of the aggregate Exercise Price for all Warrant Shares being purchased in respect of a Warrant shall be made (a) by wire transfer of immediately available funds in United States Dollars or (b) by certified or official bank check for United States Dollars made payable to the order of the Company. Each Warrant not exercised prior to the Expiration Date shall become void and all rights thereunder and all rights in respect thereof under this Warrant Agreement shall cease as of such time.

          7.2 Issuance of Certificates Representing Shares. Upon such surrender of Warrants and payment of the aggregate Exercise Price, the Company shall issue and cause to be delivered promptly to or upon the written order of the Holder and in such name or names, as the Holder may designate, a certificate or certificates for the number of full Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of such Warrants. Such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have been issued and any person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a Holder of such Warrant Shares as of the date of the surrender of such Warrants and payment of the aggregate Exercise Price.

          7.3 Issuance of New Warrant Certificates. The Warrants shall be exercisable at the election of the Holders either in full or from time to time in part (in whole Warrant Shares) and, in the event that a Warrant Certificate evidencing Warrants is exercised in respect of fewer than all of the

Warrant Shares issuable on such exercise at any time prior to the Expiration Date, a new Warrant Certificate evidencing the remaining Warrant or Warrants will be promptly issued, and the Company, whenever required under this Warrant Agreement, will provide Warrant Certificates duly executed on behalf of the Company for such purpose.

          7.4 Cancellation of Warrant Certificates. All Warrant Certificates surrendered upon exercise of Warrants shall be cancelled and disposed of by the Company in accordance with applicable law.

          7.5 Warrant Agreement. The Company shall keep copies of this Warrant Agreement and any notices given or received hereunder available for inspection by the Holders of the Warrants during normal business hours at its office. The Company shall supply the Holder from time to time with such numbers of copies of this Warrant Agreement as the Holders may request.

          7.6 Alternative Cashless Exercise. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, in lieu of exercising a Warrant as set forth above, a Holder may exercise a Warrant by electing to receive that number of Shares as determined below by surrendering to the Company such Warrant, with the applicable election to purchase Shares duly completed and signed by the Holder, in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of Shares computed using the following formula:

CS

=

WCS

x

( MP – PP )         MP

where:

     “CS” equals the number of Shares to be issued to the Holder;

     “WCS” equals the number of Warrant Shares purchasable under the Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised, the portion of the Warrant being exercised;

     “MP” equals the Current Market Price per Share; and

     “PP” equals the Exercise Price.

Following the surrender of any Warrant pursuant to this Section 7.6, the Company shall promptly record the name of the Holder in the Warrant register for that number of Shares, as calculated above in such name or names as may be designated by such Holder.

          7.7 Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue fractional Warrant Shares on the exercise of any Warrant. If more than one Warrant shall be presented for exercise in full at the same time by the same Holder, the number of full Warrant Shares which shall be issuable upon the exercise thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of Warrant Shares purchasable on exercise of the Warrants so presented. If any fraction of a Warrant Share would, except for the provisions of this Section 7.7 be issuable on the exercise of any Warrants (or specified portion thereof), the Company shall pay an amount in cash equal to the Market Price multiplied by such fraction.

          7.8 When Exercise Effective. The exercise of any Warrant shall be deemed to have been effective immediately prior to the close of business on the Business Day on which such Warrant is surrendered to and the Exercise Price is received by the Company as provided in this Section 7 (the

“Exercise Date”) and the Person in whose name the Shares shall be issuable upon such exercise shall be deemed to be the Holder of such Shares for all purposes on the Exercise Date.

          7.9 Continued Validity. A Holder of Shares issued upon the exercise of any Warrant, in whole or in part, shall continue to be entitled to all of the rights and subject to all of the obligations set forth in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws.

          7.10 BHCA Holders. If a Holder is a BHCA Holder, unless such Holder is a financial holding company and exercises such Warrant in reliance on, and in compliance with, the merchant banking exemption set forth in Regulation Y, such Holder shall not, and shall not permit any of its Bank Holding Company Affiliates to, exercise any Warrant if, after giving effect to such exercise, (a) such Holder and its Bank Holding Company Affiliates would own more than five percent (5%) of the total issued and outstanding Shares on a fully-diluted basis or (b) such Holder would be deemed under Regulation Y to have the power to exercise, directly or indirectly, a controlling influence over the management or policies of, or would otherwise control, the Company. For purposes of clause (b) of this Section 7.10, a reasoned opinion of counsel to such Holder delivered to such Holder (which is based on facts and circumstances deemed appropriate by such counsel) to the effect that such Holder does not have the power to exercise such a controlling influence or otherwise control the Company shall be conclusive.

     SECTION 8. Adjustment of Number of Warrant Shares Purchasable and Exercise Price. The number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 8. All of the adjustments referred to in this Section 8 shall only apply to Warrants which have not yet been exercised and shall not apply to Exempt Issuances. The Company shall not create any class of Shares which carries any rights to dividends or assets differing in any respect from the rights of the Shares, except as such classes of Shares, if any, may be in existence on the date hereof.

          8.1 Share Dividends, Subdivisions and Combinations. If at any time the Company shall:

          (a) declare or pay a dividend payable in Additional Shares;

          (b) subdivide or reclassify its outstanding Shares into a greater number of Shares; or

          (c) combine or reclassify its outstanding Shares into a smaller number of Shares;

then the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants immediately after the occurrence of any such event shall be adjusted to equal the number of Warrant Shares which a record holder of the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants immediately prior to the happening of such event would own or be entitled to receive after the happening of such event.

          8.2 Issuance of Additional Shares. If at any time the Company shall (except as hereinafter provided) issue or sell any Additional Shares in exchange for consideration in an amount per Additional Share less than the Current Market Price at the time the Additional Shares are issued, then the number of Warrant Shares thereafter purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants shall be adjusted to that number determined by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (a) the numerator of which shall be the number of Shares outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Shares plus the number of such Additional Shares so issued, and (b) the denominator of which shall be the number of Shares outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Shares plus the number of Shares

which the aggregate consideration for the total number of such Additional Shares so issued would purchase at the Current Market Price. For purposes of this Section 8.2, for all issuances of Shares except for those Shares issued in connection with an acquisition of assets or securities, a tender or exchange offer, a merger or other business combination, the date as of which the Current Market Price shall be computed shall be the earlier of (i) the date on which the Company shall enter into a firm contract for the issuance of such Additional Shares and (ii) the date of actual issuance of such Additional Shares. Subject to Section 8.5 hereof, no further adjustment of the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants shall be made under this Section 8.2 upon the issuance of any Additional Shares:

          (a) for which an adjustment is provided under Section 8.1 hereof;

          (b) which are issued pursuant to the exercise of any Options or the conversion, exchange or exercise of any Convertible Securities, if any such adjustment shall previously have been made upon the issuance of such Options or Convertible Securities (or upon the issuance of any Option therefor) pursuant to Section 8.3 or 8.4 hereof; or

          (c) as a distribution or a dividend which is distributed or declared and paid in accordance with Section 9.2 hereof.

          8.3 Issuance of Options. If at any time the Company shall issue or sell, or shall fix a record date for the determination of holders of any class of securities entitled to receive, any Options, whether or not the rights to purchase thereunder are immediately exercisable, and the consideration received by the Company in payment for such Options (determined in accordance with Section 8.6(a) hereof) shall be less than the Current Market Price in effect on the date of and immediately prior to such issuance, sale or fixing of a record date, then the number of Warrant Shares thereafter purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants shall be adjusted as provided in Section 8.2 hereof on the basis that (a) the maximum number of Additional Shares issuable pursuant to all such Options shall be deemed to have been issued as of (and, accordingly, the date as of which the Current Market Price shall be computed shall be) the computation date specified in the next succeeding sentence of this Section 8.3, and (b) the aggregate consideration for such maximum number of Additional Shares shall be (subject to Section 8.5 hereof) the consideration received by the Company for the issuance or sale of such Additional Shares pursuant to the terms of such Options or pursuant to the terms of such Convertible Securities. For purposes of this Section 8.3, the computation date for clause (a) above shall be the earlier of (i) the date on which the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Shares for the purpose of entitling them to receive any such Options, (ii) the date on which the Company shall enter into a firm contract for the issuance or sale of such Options and (iii) the date on which the Company shall issue or sell such Options. No further adjustment of the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants shall be made under this Section 8.3 upon the issuance or sale of any Options to subscribe for or purchase any Additional Shares or any Convertible Securities or upon the subsequent issue or sale of Additional Shares upon the exercise of such Options, if any such adjustment shall previously have been made upon the issuance or sale of such Option or upon the setting of a record date therefor, or upon any deemed issuance or sale of such Additional Shares, as a distribution or a dividend which is distributed or declared and paid in accordance with Section 9.2 hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any issuance of an Option which is issued together with a debt security of the Company, as a unit, shall be treated for the purpose of this Section 8 as the issuance of a Convertible Security.

          8.4 Issuance of Convertible Securities. If at any time the Company shall issue or sell any Convertible Securities, whether or not the rights to exchange or convert thereunder are immediately exercisable, and the consideration received by the Company in payment for such Convertible Securities shall be less than the Convertible Security Value thereof, then the number of Warrant Shares thereafter purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants shall be increased to a number of Shares having a value

immediately following the computation date (as established below) equal to the value of the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants immediately before such increase. For this purpose, the value before the increase will be the Current Market Price of the Shares (determined as at the date immediately preceding such increase) divided by the number of Shares outstanding on a fully diluted basis, and the value immediately following the computation date shall be the foregoing value, except that the numerator shall be the Current Market Price plus the cash amount paid to the Company for such Convertible Securities less the Convertible Security Value of such Convertible Securities on issuance and the denominator shall be increased by the number of Additional Shares issuable on exercise of such Convertible Securities. For purposes of this Section 8.4, the computation date shall be the earliest of (i) the date on which the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Shares for the purpose of entitling them to receive any such Convertible Securities, (ii) the date on which the Company shall enter into a firm contract for the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities and (iii) the date of actual issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities. No further adjustment of the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants shall be made under this Section 8.4 upon the issuance or sale of any Convertible Securities or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities into Additional Shares:

          (a) which are issued or sold pursuant to the exercise of any Option therefor, if any such adjustment shall previously have been made upon the issuance or sale of an Option relating to such Convertible Securities pursuant to Section 8.3 hereof; or

          (b) if any such adjustment in respect thereof shall previously have been made upon the setting of a record date therefor, or upon any deemed issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities; or

          (c) as a distribution or a dividend which is distributed or declared and paid in accordance with Section 9.2 hereof.

          8.5 Superseding Adjustment of Warrant Share. If, at any time after any adjustment of the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants shall have been made pursuant to Section 8.3 or 8.4 hereof as a result of the issuance of Options or Convertible Securities, or after any new adjustment of the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants shall have been made pursuant to this Section 8.5, (a) such Options or the right of conversion, exchange or exercise of such Convertible Securities shall expire, and all or a portion of such Options or the right of conversion, exchange or exercise with respect to all or a portion of such Convertible Securities, as the case may be, shall not have been exercised or treated as having been exercised or otherwise canceled or acquired by the Company in connection with any settlement (including, without limitation, any cash settlement) of such Options or the rights of conversion, or exchange or exercise of such convertible Securities, or (b) there has been any change (whether by the passage of time or otherwise) in the number of Shares issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange of such Options or Convertible Securities (including as a result of the operation of anti-dilution provisions applicable thereto), or (c) the consideration per Share, for which Additional Shares are issuable pursuant to such Options or the terms of any Convertible Securities, or the maturity of any such Convertible Security, shall be changed (whether by the passage of time or otherwise) then such previous adjustment shall be rescinded and annulled and the Additional Shares which were deemed to have been issued by virtue of the computation made in connection with the adjustment so rescinded and annulled shall no longer be deemed to have been issued by virtue of such computation. Thereupon, a recomputation shall be made of the effect of such Options or Convertible Securities on the basis of:

          (a) treating the number of Additional Shares, if any, theretofore actually issued or sold pursuant to the previous exercise of such Options or such right of conversion or exchange, as having

been issued or sold on the date or dates of such issuance as determined for purposes of such previous adjustment and for the consideration actually received therefor;

          (b) treating the maximum number of Additional Shares (A) issuable pursuant to all Options which then remain outstanding and (B) necessary to effect the conversion or exchange of all Convertible Securities which then remain outstanding, as having been issued (subject, however, to further adjustment under this Section 8.5); and

          (c) making the computations called for in Section 8.4 hereof on the basis of the revised terms of such Convertible Securities as if the securities being subject to recomputation were newly issued as of the relevant recomputation date and, if and to the extent called for by the foregoing provisions of this Section 8 on the basis aforesaid, a new adjustment of the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants shall be made, and such new adjustment shall supersede the previous adjustment so rescinded and annulled.

          8.6 Other Provisions Applicable to Adjustments Under this Section 8. The following provisions shall be applicable to the making of adjustments of the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants hereinbefore provided for in this Section 8, irrespective of the accounting treatment of any consideration described below:

          (a) Computation of Consideration. To the extent that any Additional Shares, any Options or any Convertible Securities shall be issued for cash consideration, the consideration received by the Company therefor shall be deemed to be the amount of cash received by the Company therefor, or, if such Additional Shares, Options or Convertible Securities are offered by the Company for subscription, the subscription price, or, if such Additional Shares, Options or Convertible Securities are sold to underwriters or dealers for public offering without a subscription offering, the initial public offering price. To the extent that such issuance or sale shall be for consideration other than cash, then the amount of such consideration shall be deemed to be the fair market value of such consideration at the time of such issuance, as determined in good faith by the board of directors of the Company, whose determination shall be described in a duly adopted resolution certified by the Company’s Secretary or Assistant Secretary. The consideration for any Additional Shares issuable pursuant to any Option to subscribe for or purchase the same shall be the consideration received or receivable by the Company for the sale or issuance of such Option plus the additional consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise thereof in full. The consideration for any Additional Shares issuable pursuant to the terms of any Convertible Securities shall be the consideration paid or payable to the Company in respect of the subscription for, sale or issuance of such Convertible Securities plus the additional consideration payable to the Company upon the conversion or exchange thereof in full. In case of the issuance at any time of any Additional Shares in payment or satisfaction of any dividend upon any class of securities other than Shares, the Company shall be deemed to have received for such Additional Shares consideration equal to the amount of such dividend so paid or satisfied.

          (b) When Adjustments to be Made. The adjustments required by this Section 8 shall be made whenever and as often as any specified event requiring an adjustment shall occur. For the purpose of any adjustment, any specified event shall be deemed to have occurred at the close of business on the date of its occurrence.

          (c) Fractional Interests. In computing adjustments under this Section 8, fractional interests in Shares shall be taken into account to the nearest one-hundredth of a Share.

          (d) When Adjustment Not Required. If the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Shares for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or distribution or subscription

or purchase rights and shall, thereafter and before the distribution thereof to the holders of the Shares of the Company, legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend, distribution, subscription or purchase rights, then 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, and no adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares thereafter purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants under Section 8.2, 8.3 or 8.4 hereof shall be made in respect of the Warrants held by such Holder.

          8.7 Adjustments of Exercise Price. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant is adjusted, as herein provided, the Exercise Price per Warrant Share payable upon exercise of the Warrant shall be adjusted (calculated to the nearest $.0001) so that it shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the aggregate number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, and the denominator of which shall be the aggregate number of Warrant Shares so purchasable immediately thereafter.

     SECTION 9. Consolidation, Merger, Equity Exchange, Distributions. The provisions set forth in this Section 9 shall only apply to Warrants which have not yet been exercised.

          9.1 Consolidation, Merger, Equity Exchange, etc. In case a consolidation, merger or equity exchange of the Company shall be effected with another Person after the date hereof and the Company shall not be the surviving entity, or the Company shall be the surviving entity but its Shares shall be changed into securities or other property of another Person, or the sale, lease or transfer of all or substantially all of its assets to another Person shall be effected after the date hereof, then, as a condition of such consolidation, merger, equity exchange, sale, lease or transfer, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby each Holder shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, upon the exercise of its Warrants, on the basis and the terms and conditions specified herein (and in lieu of each Warrant Share immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the Warrants), such securities, cash or other property receivable upon such consolidation, merger, equity exchange, sale, lease or transfer as such Holder would have been entitled to receive if its Warrants had been exercised immediately prior to such event. In any such case, appropriate and equitable provision also shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of each Holder to the end that the provisions hereof (including Section 8 hereof) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be, in relation to any securities, cash or other property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of any Warrants. The Company shall not effect any such consolidation, merger, equity exchange, sale, lease or transfer unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof the successor Person (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation, merger or equity exchange or the Person purchasing, leasing or otherwise acquiring such assets shall assume, by written instrument, the obligation to deliver to such Holder such securities, cash or other property as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such Holder may be entitled to upon the exercise of its Warrants. The above provisions of this Section 9.1 shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, equity exchanges, sales, leases or transfers.

          9.2 Distributions upon Declaration of Dividend or Other Distribution. In case the Company shall pay, upon the declaration and payment of any dividend or distribution (whether such dividend or distribution is in the form of cash, debt securities, equity securities or other property) on any class of Shares, then, in each case, the number of Warrant Shares purchasable after the record date for such distribution upon the exercise of each Warrant shall be determined by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of such Warrant immediately prior to such record date by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Current Market Price per Share immediately prior to the record date for such distribution and the denominator of which shall be the Current Market Price per Share immediately prior to the record date for such distribution less the amount of cash distributed or the then fair market value (as determined in good faith by the board of directors of the Company on a

reasonable basis) such debt securities, equity securities or other property so distributed attributable to one Share; provided, however, that in lieu of making the foregoing adjustment the Company may make the same or a like distribution to the Holders of the Warrants as if their Warrants had been exercised on the day immediately preceding the record date of such distribution on the terms (subject to any adjustment pursuant to Section 8 for a prior event) on which such Warrants could have been exercised on such date.

          Such adjustment shall be made whenever any such distribution is made, and shall become effective on the date of distribution retroactive to the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution.

          9.3 Dilution in Case of Other Securities. In case any Other Securities shall be issued or sold or shall become subject to issue or sale upon the conversion or exchange of any Shares (or Other Securities) of the Company (or any issuer of Other Securities or any other Person referred to in Section 9.1 hereof) or to subscription, purchase or other acquisition pursuant to any rights, options, warrants to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire either Additional Shares or securities directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable for Additional Shares, issued or granted by the Company (or any such other issuer or Person) for a consideration such as to dilute, on a basis consistent with the standards established in the other provisions of Section 9 hereof, the purchase rights granted by the Warrants, then, and in each such case, the computations, adjustments and readjustments provided for in said Section 8 with respect to the Warrant Shares shall be made as nearly as possible in the manner so provided and applied to determine the amount of Other Securities from time to time receivable upon the exercise of the Warrants, so as to protect the Holders against the effect of such dilution; or, in the event such Other Securities are issued or sold prior to the exercise of any Warrants and are not subsequently obtainable upon exercise of such Warrants, such adjustments shall instead be made to determine the adjusted amount of Shares represented by a Warrant Share, so as to protect the Holders against the effect of such dilution in accordance with Section 8 hereof.

     SECTION 10. Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants or the Exercise Price shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 9, the Company shall forthwith provide a certificate signed by its Chief Financial Officer, setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment and the method by which such adjustment was calculated (including a statement of the fair value, as determined in good faith by the board of directors of the Company, whose determination shall be described in a duly adopted resolution certified by the Company’s Secretary or Assistant Secretary, or by appraisal (if applicable), of any evidences of indebtedness, securities, property, warrants or other subscription or purchase rights referred to in Section 8) and specifying the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants and describing the number and kind of any other securities issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, and any change in the Exercise Price or prices thereof, after giving effect to such adjustment or change. The Company shall promptly, and in any case within three (3) Business Days after the making of such adjustment, cause a signed copy of such certificate to be delivered to each Holder in accordance with Section 20. The Company shall keep at its principal executive offices referred to in Section 20 copies of all such certificates and cause the same to be available for inspection at said office during normal business hours by any Holder or any prospective purchaser of a Warrant designated by a Holder.

     SECTION 11. Payment of Taxes. No service charge shall be made to any Holder for any exercise, exchange or registration of transfer of Warrant Certificates, and the Company will pay all documentary stamp taxes attributable to the initial issuance of Warrant Shares upon the exercise of Warrants; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax or taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue of any Warrant Certificates or any certificates for Warrant Shares in a name other than that of the registered holder of a Warrant

Certificate surrendered upon the exercise of a Warrant, and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such Warrant Certificates or the certificates representing the Shares unless or until the Person or Persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.

     SECTION 12. Mutilated or Missing Warrant Certificates. If any of the Warrant Certificates shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue, in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of the mutilated Warrant Certificate, or in lieu of and substitution for the Warrant Certificate lost, stolen or destroyed, a new Warrant Certificate of like date and tenor and representing an equivalent number of Warrants, but only upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction of such Warrant Certificate and such indemnity and security therefor as is customary and reasonably satisfactory to the Company, if requested. Applicants for such substitute Warrant Certificate shall also comply with such other reasonable regulations and pay such other reasonable charges as the Company may prescribe.

     SECTION 13. Reservation of Shares.

          13.1 Reservation of Shares. The Company will, commencing on the first day of the Exercise Period and at all times subsequent thereto until the sooner of the expiration of the Exercise Period or the exercise of all of the Warrants by the Holders thereof, reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued Shares, for the purpose of enabling it to satisfy any obligation to issue Warrant Shares upon exercise of Warrants, the maximum number of Shares which may then be deliverable upon the exercise of all outstanding Warrants.

          13.2 Transfer Agent. The Company or the transfer agent for the Shares and every subsequent transfer agent for any Shares issuable upon the exercise of any of the rights of purchase represented by the Warrants as aforesaid (the “Transfer Agent”) will be irrevocably authorized and directed at all times commencing on the first day of the Exercise Period, and continuing until the sooner of the expiration of the Exercise Period or the exercise of all of the Warrants by the Holders thereof, to reserve such number of authorized Shares as shall be required for such purpose. The Company will keep a copy of this Warrant Agreement on file with the Transfer Agent for any Shares issuable upon the exercise of the rights of purchase represented by the Warrants. The Company will supply such Transfer Agent with duly executed certificates for such purposes and will provide or otherwise make available any cash which may be payable as provided in Section 7.7. The Company will furnish such Transfer Agent a copy of all notices of adjustments and certificates related thereto, transmitted to each Holder pursuant to Section 14.

          13.3 Valid Issuance of Warrant Shares. Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment pursuant to Section 8 hereof to reduce the Exercise Price below the then par value of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall take all corporate action necessary, in the opinion of its counsel (which may be counsel employed by the Company), in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares at the Exercise Price as so adjusted.

          13.4 Shares Fully Paid and Nonassessable. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon exercise of Warrants will be, upon payment of the aggregate Exercise Price and issuance thereof, fully paid, nonassessable, free of preemptive rights and free from all taxes, liens, charges and security interests with respect to the issue thereof.

     SECTION 14. Notices of Certain Corporate Actions

         14.1. In case:

          (v) of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company;

          15.1 Inspection Rights.

     SECTION 18. Registration Rights.

          18.1 Piggy-Back Registration Rights.

          (a) If the Company proposes to file on its own behalf and/or on behalf of any holder of its securities a registration statement under the Securities Act on any form (other than a registration statement on Form S-4 or S-8 or any successor form for securities to be offered in a transaction of the type referred to in Rule 145 under the Securities Act or to employees of the Company pursuant to any employee benefit plan, respectively), including Form S-1, for the registration of any securities (a “Piggy-Back Registration”), it will give written notice to all Holders at least twenty (20) Business Days before the initial filing with the SEC of such registration statement (a “Piggy-Back Registration Statement”), which notice shall set forth the intended method of disposition of the securities proposed to be registered by the Company. The notice shall offer to include in such filing the aggregate number of Registrable Securities into which the Warrants are convertible as such Holders may request.

          (b) Each Holder desiring to have Registrable Securities registered under this Section 18.1 (“Participating Piggy-Back Holders”) shall advise the Company in writing within ten (10) Business Days after the date of receipt of such notice from the Company, setting forth the amount of such Registrable Securities for which registration is requested. The Company shall thereupon include in such filing the number or amount of Registrable Securities for which registration is so requested, subject to Section 18.1(c) below, and shall use its best efforts to effect registration of such Registrable Securities under the Securities Act.

          (c) If the Piggy-Back Registration relates to an underwritten public offering and the managing underwriter of such proposed public offering advises in writing that, in its opinion, the amount of Registrable Securities requested to be included in the Piggy-Back Registration Statement in addition to the securities being registered by the Company would be greater than the total number of securities which can be sold therein without having a material adverse effect on the distribution of such securities or otherwise having a material adverse effect on the marketability thereof (the “Maximum Number of Securities”), then:

            (i) in the event the Company initiated the Piggy-Back Registration, the Company shall include in such Piggy-Back Registration, in the priority listed below, up to the Maximum Number of Securities:

	(1)		first, the securities the Company proposes to register for the account of the Company,
	(2)		second, the securities of the Company of any holder of KV Registration Rights requested to be included in such registration in accordance with Section 2.2 of the KV Agreement,
	(3)		third, all Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration by Participating Piggy-Back Holders (allocated, if necessary for the offering not to exceed the Maximum Number of Securities, pro rata among such Holders based on the number of Registrable Securities of the Company held by each selling Holder which are sought to be included in the Piggy-Back Registration, all measured at the time of filing of the Piggy-Back Registration Statement), and

(4)

fourth, the securities of the Company of any other selling security holders (other than holders of KV Registration Rights and Participating Piggy-Back Holders) requested to be included in such registration by such holders (allocated, if necessary for the offering not to exceed the Maximum Number of Securities, pro rata among such holders based on the number of securities of the Company held by each such selling holder which are sought to be included in the Piggy-Back Registration, all measured at the time of filing of the Piggy-Back Registration Statement).

          (ii) in the event any holder of KV Registration Rights initiated the Piggy-Back Registration, the Company shall include in such Piggy-Back Registration, in the priority listed below, up to the Maximum Number of Securities:

	(1)		first, the securities the Company that such initiating security holder proposes to register plus securities of the Company of any “Requesting Holders” pursuant to Section 2.1.4 of the KV Agreement,
	(2)		second, all Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration by Participating Piggy-Back Holders, (allocated, if necessary for the offering not to exceed the Maximum Number of Securities, pro rata among the Holders based on the number of Registrable Securities of the Company held by each selling Holder which are sought to be included in the Piggy-Back Registration, all measured at the time of filing of the Piggy-Back Registration Statement),
	(3)		third, the securities of the Company of any other selling security holders (other than holders of KV Registration Rights and Participating Piggy-Back Holders) requested to be included in such registration by such holders (allocated, if necessary for the offering not to exceed the Maximum Number of Securities, pro rata among such holders based on the number of securities of the Company held by each such selling holder which are sought to be included in the Piggy-Back Registration, all measured at the time of filing of the Piggy-Back Registration Statement), and
	(4)		fourth, any securities the Company proposes to register for the account of the Company.

          provided, however, that the Company shall be required to include in such Piggy-Back Registration the securities of holders identified in paragraphs (2) through (4) above only in such amount and in the priority listed above that would not have an “Adverse Effect” as defined in Section 2.1.5 of the KV Agreement.

           (iii) in the event that any holder of securities of the Company (other than holders of KV Registration Rights) initiated the Piggy-Back Registration, including the Holders, the Company shall include in such Piggy-Back Registration, in the priority listed below, up to the Maximum Number of Securities:

(1)

first, all Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration by the holders that initiated the Piggy-Back Registration and

			the securities requested to be included in such registration by holders of KV Registration Rights (allocated, if necessary for the offering not to exceed the Maximum Number of Securities, pro rata among all such holders based on the number of securities of the Company held by each such holder, all measured at the time of filing of the Piggy-Back Registration Statement),
	(2)		second, all Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration by Participating Piggy-Back Holders, (allocated, if necessary for the offering not to exceed the Maximum Number of Securities, pro rata among such Holders based on the number of Registrable Securities of the Company held by each selling Holder which are sought to be included in the Piggy-Back Registration, all measured at the time of filing of the Piggy-Back Registration Statement), and
	(3)		third, any other securities the Company requested to be included in such registration (including the securities to be sold for the account of the Company).

          (d) The Company will not hereafter enter into any agreement, which is inconsistent with the rights of priority provided in clause (c) above.

          18.2 Demand Registration Rights.

          (a) Any Holder may request that the Company effect a registration (a “Demand Registration”) under the Securities Act covering all or part of the Registrable Securities, which request shall specify the intended method or methods of disposition of such Registrable Securities. The Company shall promptly notify any other Holders in writing of the receipt of such request and each such Holder may elect (by written notice sent to the Company within ten (10) Business Days from the date of such Holder’s receipt of the aforementioned notice from the Company) to have all or part of such Holder’s Registrable Securities included in such registration thereof pursuant to this Section 18.2, and such Holder shall specify in such notice the number of Registrable Securities that such Holder elects to include in such registration. Thereupon the Company shall, as expeditiously as is possible, but in any event no later than forty-five (45) days (excluding any days which occur during a permitted Blackout Period under Section 18.3) after receipt of a written request for a Demand Registration, file with the SEC and use its best efforts to cause to be declared effective, a registration statement (a “Demand Registration Statement”) relating to the Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested to register by such Holders (“Participating Demand Holders”) for sale, to the extent required to permit the disposition (in accordance with the intended method or methods thereof, as aforesaid) of the Registrable Securities so registered. With respect to any Demand Registration, the Participating Demand Holders may request the Company to effect a registration of the Registrable Securities under a registration statement pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any successor rule) (a “Shelf Registration Statement”).

          (b) If the majority-in-interest of the Participating Demand Holders in a Demand Registration relating to a public offering so request that the offering be underwritten with a managing underwriter and such managing underwriter of such Demand Registration advises the Company in writing that, in its opinion, the number of Registrable Securities to be included in such offering by Participating Demand Holders (plus, in the event that at the time a request for Demand Registration is made by a Holder pursuant to this Agreement there are outstanding KV Registration Rights and one or more holders

of KV Registration Rights notify the Company of its or their election to participate in the Demand Registration in accordance with terms of the KV Agreement, the number of securities requested to be included by such holder(s) of KV Registration Rights) is greater than the total number of securities which can be sold therein without having a material adverse effect on the distribution of such securities or otherwise having a material adverse effect on the marketability thereof (the “Maximum Number of Demand Securities”), then (i) if no holder of KV Registration Rights has notified the Company of its election to participate in such Demand Registration, the Company shall include in such Demand Registration such number of Registrable Securities that the Participating Demand Holders have requested to be registered thereunder allocated among all such Participating Demand Holders on a pro rata basis (based on the number of Registrable Securities held by each Participating Demand Holder) so that the aggregate number of such Registrable Securities included in such Demand Registration does not exceed the Maximum Number of Demand Securities, and (ii) in the event that at the time a request for Demand Registration is made by a Holder pursuant to this Agreement there are outstanding KV Registration Rights and one or more holders of KV Registration Rights notify the Company of its or their election to participate in the Demand Registration in accordance with terms of the KV Agreement, such Demand Registration shall be deemed to be a Piggy-Back Registration and the provisions of Section 18.1(c)(iii) shall be applicable in determining registration priority rights as between the Holders and the holders of KV Registration Rights so that the aggregate number of such Registrable Securities and securities of such holders of KV Registration Rights included in such Demand Registration does not exceed the Maximum Number of Demand Securities. If the amount of such Registrable Securities does not exceed the Maximum Number of Demand Securities, the Company may include in such Demand Registration any other securities of the Company, as the Company may in its discretion determine or be obligated to allow, in an amount which together with the Registrable Securities included in such Demand Registration shall not exceed the Maximum Number of Demand Securities.

          (c) Registrations under this Section 18.2 shall be on such appropriate registration form of the SEC (i) as shall be selected by the Company and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the majority-in-interest of the Participating Demand Holders and (ii) as shall permit the disposition of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method or methods of disposition specified in the applicable Holders’ requests for such registration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, pursuant to a Demand Registration, (x) the Company proposes to effect registration by filing a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (or any successor or similar short-form registration statement), (y) such registration is in connection with an underwritten offering and (z) the managing underwriter or underwriters shall advise the Company in writing that, in its or their opinion, the use of another form of registration statement (or the inclusion, rather than the incorporation by reference, of information in the prospectus related to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (or other short-form registration statement)) is of material importance to the success of such proposed offering, then such registration shall be effected on such other form (or such information shall be so included in such prospectus).

          (d) Holders shall be entitled to an aggregate of six (6) requests pursuant to Section 18.2(a) (each, a “Demand for Registration”); provided however that (i) each Holder shall be entitled to at least one (1) and no more than two (2) of such requests and (ii) the Holders shall make no more than two (2) Demands for Registration within any 12 month period; provided further that a registration requested pursuant to Section 18.2(a) shall not be deemed to have been made for purposes of this Section 18.2(d) unless (i) it has been declared effective by the SEC, (ii) it has remained effective, and (iii) the offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration is not subject to any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or other governmental agency or court (other than any such stop order, injunction, or other requirement of the SEC or other governmental agency or court prompted by act or omission of Holders of Registrable Securities).

          (e) If any Holder of Registrable Securities disapproves of the terms of any underwritten offering, such Holder may elect to withdraw all its Registrable Securities by written notice to the Company, the managing underwriter and the other Holders participating in such registration. The Registrable Securities so withdrawn shall also be withdrawn from registration.

          18.3 Blackout Periods. The Company shall have the right to delay the filing or effectiveness of a Demand Registration Statement required pursuant to Section 18.2 during no more than two periods aggregating to not more than ninety (90) days (a “Blackout Period”) in the event that (a) the Company would, in accordance with the reasonable written advice of its counsel, be required to disclose in the prospectus information not otherwise then required by law to be publicly disclosed and (b) in the judgment of the board of directors of the Company, there is a reasonable likelihood that such disclosure, or any other action to be taken in connection with the prospectus, would materially and adversely affect or interfere with any financing, acquisition, merger, disposition of assets (not in the ordinary course of business), corporate reorganization or other similar transaction involving the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall delay during such Blackout Period the filing or effectiveness of any Demand Registration Statement required pursuant to the registration rights of the holders of any securities of the Company. The Company shall promptly give the Holders written notice of such determination containing a general statement of the reasons for such postponement and an approximation of the duration of the anticipated delay.

          18.4 Registration Procedures. If the Company is required by the provisions of Section 18 to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities under the Securities Act, the Company will, as expeditiously as possible:

          (a) prepare and file with the SEC the applicable Registration Statement with respect to the Registrable Securities and use its best efforts to cause such Registration Statement promptly to become and remain effective for a period of time required for the disposition of the Registrable Securities by the Holders thereof (except with respect to a Shelf Registration Statement which shall remain effective for a period not to exceed three (3) years); provided, however, that before filing such Registration Statement or any amendments thereto, the Company shall furnish to the Holders copies of all documents and amendments proposed to be filed, which documents will be subject to the review of counsel to the Holders or any underwriter, and the Company will make corrections reasonably requested by such Holder with respect to such information prior to filing any such Registration Statement or amendment The Company shall not be deemed to have used its best efforts to keep such Registration Statement effective during the applicable period if it voluntarily takes any action that would result in the Holders of the Registrable Securities not being able to sell such Registrable Securities during that period;

     SECTION 19. Indemnification and Contribution.

          (a) The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, its directors, officers, employees, advisors, agents, partners, members, managers and Affiliates and each Person who participates in the offering of such Registrable Securities, including underwriters (as defined in the Securities Act), and each Person, if any, who controls such Holder or participating Person within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of or are based on any untrue or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus, or prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or any documents incorporated by reference therein 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, or any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any other federal securities laws or applicable “blue sky” or state securities laws, and shall reimburse each Holder, its directors, officers, employees, advisors, agents, partners, members, managers and Affiliates, and such participating Person or controlling Person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to any Holder, its directors, officers, employees, advisors, agents, partners, members, managers and Affiliates, participating Person or controlling Person in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in connection with such Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus, prospectus or amendments or supplements thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such Registration Statement by any such Holder, its directors, officers, employees, advisors, agents, partners, members, managers and Affiliates, participating Person or controlling Person. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any such Holder, its directors, officers, employees, advisors, agents, partners, members, managers and Affiliates, participating Person or controlling Person, and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by such Holder. The reimbursements required by this Section 19(a) shall be made by periodic payments during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or expenses incurred.

          (b) In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, each such Holder shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors and officers, and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company or any such director, officer or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Registration Statement,

preliminary prospectus, or prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto 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, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in such Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus, the prospectus or amendments or supplements thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by or on behalf of such Holder expressly for use in connection with such Registration Statement; and each such Holder shall reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any such director, officer, controlling Person, in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 19(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of such Holder, and provided, further, that the obligation to indemnify will be several, not joint and several, among such Holders of Registrable Securities and the liability of each Holder hereunder shall be limited to the proportion of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense which is equal to the proportion that the net proceeds from the sale of the Registrable Securities sold by such Holder under such Registration Statement bears to the total net proceeds from the sale of all securities sold thereunder, but not in any event to exceed the net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement.

          (c) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 19 from the indemnifying party is unavailable to an indemnified party hereunder in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified parties in connection with the actions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and indemnified parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has been made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified parties, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 19(c), no Holder shall be required to contribute an amount greater than the dollar amount by which the net proceeds received by such Holder with respect to the sale of any Registrable Securities exceeds the amount of damages which such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of any and all untrue or alleged untrue statements of material fact or omissions or alleged omissions of material fact made in any Registration Statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto related to such sale of Registrable Securities.

          The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 19(c) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding clause. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

          (d) Any Person entitled to indemnification under this Section 19 agrees to give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party after the receipt by the indemnified party of any written notice of the commencement of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation or threat thereof made in

writing for which the indemnified party intends to claim indemnification or contribution pursuant to this Warrant Agreement; provided, that the failure so to notify the indemnified party shall not relieve the indemnifying party of any liability that it may have to the indemnifying party hereunder. If notice of commencement of any such action is given to the indemnifying party as above provided, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent it may wish, to assume the defense of such action at its own expense, with counsel chosen by it and reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party. The indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be paid by the indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party agrees to pay the same, (ii) the indemnifying party fails to assume the defense of such action, or (iii) the named parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties) have been advised by such counsel that either (A) representation of such indemnified party and the indemnifying party by the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct or (B) there are one or more legal defenses available to it which are substantially different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement entered into without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

          (e) The agreements contained in this Section 19 shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by any Holder and sale of all the Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Holder, its directors and officers and Affiliates or participating or controlling Person.

     SECTION 20. Notices to the Company and the Holders. Any notice or demand authorized or permitted by this Warrant Agreement to be given or made by any Holder to or on the Company shall be sufficiently given or made if given in writing, by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or by U.S. express mail service, or by private overnight mail service (e.g. Federal Express), or by facsimile transmission.
