Series A Warrant to Purchase Common Stock
of
ICP Solar Technologies, Inc.
THIS CERTIFIES that BRIDGEPOINTE MASTER FUND LTD., a Cayman Islands Exempted Company or any subsequent holder hereof (Holder) has the right to purchase from ICP Solar Technologies, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the Company), up to ______________________________ (_____________) fully paid and nonassessable shares, of the Company's common stock, $0.00001 par value per share (Common Stock), subject to adjustment as provided herein, at a price equal to the Exercise Price as defined in Section 3 below, at any time during the Term (as defined below). This Warrant amends and restates the Warrant originally dated as of June 13, 2008.
Holder agrees with the Company that this Warrant to Purchase Common Stock of the Company (this Warrant or this Agreement) is issued and all rights hereunder shall be held subject to all of the conditions, limitations and provisions set forth herein.
1.
Date of Issuance and Term.
This Warrant shall be deemed to be issued on June 13, 2008 (Date of Issuance). The term of this Warrant begins on the Date of Issuance and ends at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date that is six (6) years after the Date of Issuance (the Term). This Warrant was issued in conjunction with the issuance of Debentures of the Company (the Debentures) to the Holder pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement (Securities Purchase Agreement), and the Registration Rights Agreement (Registration Rights Agreement) by and between the Company and Holder dated on or about June 13, 2008.
1
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the applicable portion of this Warrant shall not be exercisable during any time that, and only to the extent that, the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to Holder upon such Exercise (as defined in Section 2(a)), when added to the number of shares of Common Stock, if any, that the Holder otherwise beneficially owns (outside of this Warrant, and not including any other warrants or securities of Holders having a provision substantially similar to this paragraph) at the time of such Exercise, would exceed 4.99% (the Maximum Percentage) of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon Exercise of this Warrant held by the Holder, as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Beneficial Ownership Limitation). The Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall be conc lusively satisfied if the applicable Notice of Exercise includes a signed representation by the Holder that the issuance of the shares in such Notice of Exercise will not violate the Limitation, and the Company shall not be entitled to require additional documentation of such satisfaction.
Notwithstanding the above, in the event that the Company receives any purchase, tender or exchange offer or any offer to enter into a merger with another entity whereby the Company shall not be the surviving entity (an Offer), then the Maximum Percentage shall be increased (but not decreased) to 9.99%, and 4.99% shall be automatically revised immediately after such offer to read 9.99% each place it occurs in this Section 1. The Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 1 may be waived by such Holder, at the election of such Holder, upon not less than 61 days prior notice to the Company, to change the Beneficial Ownership Limitation to any amount not in excess of 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon Exercise of this Warrant held by the Holder and the Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall continue to apply. Upon such a change by a Holder of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation from such 4.99% limitation to such 9.99% limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation may not be further waived by such Holder, provided that, if an Event of Default occurs, thereafter the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 1 may be waived by such Holder, at the election of such Holder, upon not less than 61 days prior notice to the Company, to change the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage (and not limited to 9.99%) of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon Exercise of the Warrants held by the Holder and the provisions of this Section 1 shall continue to apply. The limitations on Exercise set forth in this subsection are referred to as the Beneficial Ownership Limitations. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 1 to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation.
Notwithstanding the above, Holder shall retain the option to either Exercise or not Exercise its option(s) to acquire Common Stock pursuant to the terms hereof after an Offer, and, in the event of a cash Exercise following a tender offer, the Exercise Price per share that would otherwise be due shall instead be offset against the tender price per share to be received by the Holder, provided, however, that in the event a tender offer is not completed, Holder, at its option may either (i) complete any Exercise that was initiated after the Offer by promptly paying to the Company the Exercise Price that would have been due at the time the Warrant was Exercised, or (ii) cancel such Exercise by providing written notice to the Company, in which case such Exercise shall be deemed void ad initio.
2
Maximum Exercise of Rights. In the event the Holder notifies the Company that the Exercise of the rights described herein would result in the issuance of an amount of Common Stock of the Company that would exceed the maximum amount that may be issued to a Holder calculated in the manner described above, then the issuance of such additional shares of Common Stock of the Company to such Holder will be deferred in whole or in part until such time as such Holder is able to beneficially own such Common Stock without exceeding the maximum amount calculated in the manner described herein. The determination of when such Common Stock may be issued shall be made by each Holder as to only such Holder.
2.
Exercise.
(a) Manner of Exercise. During the Term, this Warrant may be Exercised as to all or any lesser number of full shares of Common Stock covered hereby (the Warrant Shares or the Shares) upon surrender of this Warrant, with the Notice of Exercise Form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the Notice of Exercise) duly completed and executed, together with the full Exercise Price (as defined below, which may be satisfied by either a Cash Exercise or a Cashless Exercise, as each is defined below) for each share of Common Stock as to which this Warrant is Exercised, at the office of the Company, Attn: Sass Peress, President, CEO & Chairman; ICP Solar Technologies, Inc., 7075 Place Robert-Joncas, Unit 131, Montreal H4M272, Phone:   ###-###-####, Fax:   ###-###-#### or at such other location as the Company may then be located or such other office or agency as t he Company may designate in writing, by overnight mail, by facsimile (such surrender and payment of the Exercise Price hereinafter called the Exercise of this Warrant). In the case of a Cashless Exercise, the Exercise Price is deemed to have been delivered upon the Holders deliver of a Notice of Exercise to the Company.
(b) Date of Exercise. The Date of Exercise of the Warrant shall be defined as the date that a copy of the Notice of Exercise Form attached hereto as Exhibit A, completed and executed, is sent by facsimile to the Company or its transfer agent (Transfer Agent) (including but not limited to a scanned PDF file which is delivered as an attachment to an e-mail to the Company), provided that the original Warrant (if delivery of the original Warrant is required pursuant to Section 2(l) hereof) and Notice of Exercise Form are received by the Company and the Exercise Price is satisfied, each as soon as practicable thereafter. Alternatively, the Date of Exercise shall be defined as the date the original Notice of Exercise Form is received by the Company, if Holder has not sent advance notice by facsimile. Upon delivery of the Notice of Exercise Form to the Company by facsimile or otherwise, the Holder shal l be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date such Warrant Shares are credited to the Holder's DTC account or the date of delivery of the certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares as the case may be. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise within 1 Business Day of receipt of such notice. In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, the records of the Holder shall be controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error.
3
(c) Delivery of Common Stock Upon Exercise. Within 3 Trading Days from the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise, surrender of this Warrant (if required) and payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (which, in the case of a Cashless Exercise, shall be deemed to have been paid upon the submission by the Holder of a Notice of Exercise)(the Warrant Shares Delivery Deadline), the Company shall issue and deliver (or cause its transfer agent so to issue and deliver) in accordance with the terms hereof to or upon the order of the Holder that number of shares of Common Stock (Exercise Shares) for the portion of this Warrant converted as shall be determined in accordance herewith. Upon the Exercise of this Warrant or any part thereof, the Company shall, at its own cost and expense, take all necessary action, including obtaining and delivering, an opinion of counsel to assure that the Company's transfer agent sh all issue stock certificates in the name of Holder (or its nominee) or such other persons as designated by Holder and in such denominations to be specified at Exercise representing the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such Exercise. The Company warrants that no instructions other than these instructions have been or will be given to the transfer agent of the Company's Common Stock and that, unless waived by the Holder, the Exercise Shares will be free-trading, and freely transferable, and will not contain a legend restricting the resale or transferability of the Exercise Shares if the Unrestricted Conditions (as defined below) are met. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder certificates evidencing the Warrant Shares subject to a Notice of Exercise by the Warrant Shares Delivery Deadline (a Warrant Shares Delivery Failure), the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Warrant Shares subject t o such exercise (based on the VWAP (as defined below) of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after such Warrant Shares Delivery Deadline until such certificates are delivered (Warrant Shares Delivery Failure Payments).
(d) Payment of Accrued Warrant Shares Delivery Failure Payments. The Company shall pay any payments incurred under this Section in cash or cash equivalent upon demand or, if not demanded sooner, on or before the fifth (5th) day of each month following a month in which they accrue. Warrant Shares Delivery Failure Payments are in addition to any Shares that the Holder is entitled to receive upon Exercise of this Warrant. Nothing herein shall limit the Holder's right to pursue actual damages (to the extent in excess of the Warrant Shares Delivery Failure Payments) for the Company's Warrant Shares Delivery Failure, and the Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief).
(e) Maximum Interest Rate. Nothing contained herein or in any document referred to herein or delivered in connection herewith shall be deemed to establish or require the payment of a rate of interest or other charges in excess of the maximum permitted by applicable law. In the event that the rate of interest or dividends required to be paid or other charges hereunder exceed the maximum permitted by such law, any payments in excess of such maximum shall be credited against amounts owed by the Company to the Holder and thus refunded to the Company.
4
(f) Revocation of Exercise Upon Delivery Failure. In addition to any other remedies which may be available to the Holder, in the event that the Company fails for any reason to effect delivery of the Exercise Shares by the Warrant Shares Delivery Deadline, the Holder will be entitled to revoke all or part of the relevant Notice of Exercise by delivery of a notice to such effect to the Company whereupon the Company and the Holder shall each be restored to their respective positions immediately prior to the delivery of such notice, except that the liquidated damages described above shall be payable through the date notice of revocation or rescission is given to the Company.
(g) Legends.
(i) Restrictive Legend. The Holder understands that the Warrant and, until such time as Exercise Shares have been registered under the 1933 Act as contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 144(k) under the 1933 Act without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, the Exercise Shares may bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of the certificates for such securities):
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER SAID ACT, OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, IN FORM, SUBSTANCE AND SCOPE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO COUNSEL TO THE COMPANY, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER SAID ACT.
(ii) Removal of Restrictive Legends. Certificates evidencing the Exercise Shares shall not contain any legend restricting the transfer thereof (including the legend set forth above in subsection 2(g)(i)): (i) while a registration statement (including the Registration Statement, as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) covering the resale of such security is effective under the Securities Act, or (ii) following any sale of such Exercise Shares pursuant to Rule 144, or (iii) if such Exercise Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144(k), or (iv) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission) (collectively, the Unrestricted Conditions). The Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Companys transfer agent promptly after the Effective Date (as defined below) of the Registration Statement if required by the Companys transfer agent to effect the issuance of Exercise Shares without a restrictive legend or removal of the legend hereunder. If the Unrestricted Conditions are met at the time of issuance or resale of Exercise Shares, then such Exercise Shares shall be issued free of all legends. The Company agrees that following the Effective Date or at such time as the Unrestricted Conditions are met or such legend is otherwise no longer required under this Section 2(g), it will, no later than three (3) Trading Days following the delivery (the Unlegended Shares Delivery Deadline) by the Holder to the Company or the Companys transfer agent of a certificate representing Exercise Shares, as applicable, issued with a restrictive legend (such third Trading Day, the Legend Removal Date), deliver, or cause the Transfer Agent to deliver at the Companys expense, to such Holder a certificate (or electronic transfer) representing such shares that is free from al l restrictive and other legends. For purposes hereof, Effective Date shall mean the date that the Registration Statement that the Company is required to file pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement has been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission).
5
(iii) Sale of Unlegended Shares. Holder agrees that the removal of the restrictive legend from certificates representing Securities as set forth in this Section 2(g)(i) above is predicated upon the Companys reliance that the Holder will sell any Exercise Shares pursuant to either the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements, or an exemption therefrom, and that if Securities are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement, they will be sold in compliance with the plan of distribution set forth therein.
(h) Cancellation of Warrant. This Warrant shall be canceled upon the full Exercise of this Warrant, and, as soon as practical after the Date of Exercise, Holder shall be entitled to receive Common Stock for the number of shares purchased upon such Exercise of this Warrant, and if this Warrant is not Exercised in full, Holder shall be entitled to receive a new Warrant (containing terms identical to this Warrant) representing any unexercised portion of this Warrant in addition to such Common Stock.
(i) Holder of Record. Each person in whose name any Warrant for shares of Common Stock is issued shall, for all purposes, be deemed to be the Holder of record of such shares on the Date of Exercise of this Warrant, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Common Stock purchased upon the Exercise of this Warrant. Nothing in this Warrant shall be construed as conferring upon Holder any rights as a stockholder of the Company.
(j) Delivery of Electronic Shares. In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the unlegended shares of Common Stock issuable upon Exercise (the Unlegended Shares), provided the Companys transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company (DTC) Fast Automated Securities Transfer (FAST) program, upon written request of the Holder, so long as the certificates therefor do not bear a legend, are not required to bear a legend, and the Holder is not obligated to return such certificate for the placement of a legend thereon, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Unlegended Shares to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder's prime broker with DTC identified in the written request through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (DWAC) system. Otherwise, delivery of the Common Stock shall be by physical delivery to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise. The time periods for delivery and liquidated damages described herein shall apply to the electronic transmittals described herein, or to physical delivery, whichever is applicable.
(k) Buy-In. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails to cause its transfer agent to transmit to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing the Exercise Shares pursuant to an Exercise on or before the Warrant Shares Delivery Deadline, and if after such date the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Holders brokerage firm otherwise purchases shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Exercise Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such Exercise (a Buy-In), then the Company shall (1) pay in cash to the Holder the amount by which (x) the Holders total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (A) the number of Exercise Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Hold er in connection with the Exercise at issue times (B) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (2) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Exercise Shares for which such Exercise was not honored or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its Exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted Exercise of shares of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (1) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In, together with applicable confirmations and other evidence reasonably requested by the Company. Nothing herein shall limit a Holders right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Companys failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon Exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
6
(l) Surrender of Warrant Upon Exercise; Book-Entry. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon Exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender the original Warrant Certificate to the Company unless all of this Warrant is Exercised, in which case such Holder shall deliver the original Warrant being Exercised to the Company promptly following the Date of Exercise at issue. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the amount of this Warrant that is so Exercised and the dates of such Exercises or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Company, so as not to require physical surrender of this original Warrant upon each such Exercise. In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, such records of the Holder shall be controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
3.
Payment of Warrant Exercise Price.
The Exercise Price (Exercise Price) shall initially equal $0.50 per share (the Initial Exercise Price), provided that as of December 31, 2008, the Exercise Price shall be reduced, but not increased, to $0.25 per share, all subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms hereof, including but not limited to Section 5 below.
7
Payment of the Exercise Price may be made by either of the following, or a combination thereof, at the election of Holder:
(i)
Cash Exercise: The Holder may exercise this Warrant in cash, bank or cashiers check or wire transfer (a Cash Exercise); or
(ii)
Cashless Exercise: The Holder, at its option, may exercise this Warrant in one or more cashless exercise transactions anytime that there is not a current and effective Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) then in effect covering the resale of the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise. In order to effect a Cashless Exercise, the Holder shall surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with notice of cashless election, in which event the Company shall issue Holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula (a Cashless Exercise):
X = Y (A-B)/A
where:
X = the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to Holder.
Y = the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is being Exercised.
A = the Market Price of one (1) share of Common Stock (for purposes of this Section 3(ii), where Market Price, as of any date, means the Volume Weighted Average Price (as defined herein) of the Companys Common Stock during the five (5) consecutive trading day period immediately preceding the date of Exercise, or other applicable date.
B = the Exercise Price.
As used herein, the Volume Weighted Average Price or VWAP for any security as of any date means the volume weighted average sale price on the Over the Counter Electronic Bulletin Board (the OTC-BB) as reported by, or based upon data reported by, Bloomberg L.P. or an equivalent, reliable reporting service mutually acceptable to and hereafter designated by holders of a majority in interest of the Warrants and the Company (Bloomberg) or, if the OTC-BB is not the principal trading market for such security, the volume weighted average sale price of such security on the principal securities exchange or trading market where such security is listed or traded as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no volume weighted average sale price is reported for such security, then the last closing trade price of such security as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no last closing trade price is reported for such security by Bloomberg, the average of the bid prices of any market makers for such security that are listed in the pink sheets by the National Quotation Bureau, Inc. If the Volume Weighted Average Price cannot be calculated for such security on such date in the manner provided above, the volume weighted average price shall be the fair market value as mutually determined by the Company and the holders of a majority in interest of the Warrants being Exercised for which the calculation of the volume weighted average price is required in order to determine the Exercise Price of such Warrants. Trading Day shall mean any day on which the Common Sock is traded for any period on the OTC-BB, or on the principal securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then being traded.
8
For purposes of Rule 144 and sub-section (d)(3)(ii) thereof, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Common Stock issuable upon Exercise of this Warrant in a cashless Exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired at the time this Warrant was originally issued. Moreover, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the holding period for the Common Stock issuable upon Exercise of this Warrant in a cashless Exercise transaction shall be deemed to have commenced on the date this Warrant was issued.
4.
Transfer and Registration.
(a) Transfer Rights. Subject to the provisions of Section 8 of this Warrant, this Warrant may be transferred on the books of the Company, in whole or in part, in person or by attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant properly completed and endorsed. This Warrant shall be canceled upon such surrender and, as soon as practicable thereafter, the person to whom such transfer is made shall be entitled to receive a new Warrant or Warrants as to the portion of this Warrant transferred, and Holder shall be entitled to receive a new Warrant as to the portion hereof retained.
(b) Registrable Securities. The Common Stock issuable upon the Exercise of this Warrant has registration rights pursuant to that certain Registration Rights Agreements between the Company and the Holder dated even herewith.
5.
Anti-Dilution Adjustments; Additional Adjustments; Purchase Rights.
(a)
[Omitted].
(b) Recapitalization or Reclassification. If the Company shall at any time effect a recapitalization, reclassification or other similar transaction of such character that the shares of Common Stock shall be changed into or become exchangeable for a larger or smaller number of shares, then upon the effective date thereof, the number of shares of Common Stock which Holder shall be entitled to purchase upon Exercise of this Warrant shall be increased or decreased, as the case may be, in direct proportion to the increase or decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock by reason of such recapitalization, reclassification or similar transaction, and the Exercise Price shall be, in the case of an increase in the number of shares, proportionally decreased and, in the case of decrease in the number of shares, proportionally increased. The Company shall give Holder the same notice it provides to holders of Common Stock of any transaction described in this Section 5(b).
9
(c) Exercise Price Adjusted. As used in this Warrant, the term Exercise Price shall mean the purchase price per share specified in Section 3 of this Warrant, until the occurrence of an event stated in this Section 5 or otherwise set forth in this Warrant, and thereafter shall mean said price as adjusted from time to time in accordance with the provisions of said subsection. No such adjustment under this Section 5 shall be made unless such adjustment would change the Exercise Price at the time by $.01 or more; provided, however, that all adjustments not so made shall be deferred and made when the aggregate thereof would change the Exercise Price at the time by $.01 or more. No adjustment made pursuant to any provision of this Section 5 shall have the net effect of increasing the Exercise Price in relation to the split adjusted and distribution adjusted price of the Common Stock.
(d) Adjustments: Additional Shares, Securities or Assets. In the event that at any time, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this Section 5 or otherwise, Holder shall, upon Exercise of this Warrant, become entitled to receive shares and/or other securities or assets (other than Common Stock) then, wherever appropriate, all references herein to shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to refer to and include such shares and/or other securities or assets; and thereafter the number of such shares and/or other securities or assets shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner and upon terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions of this Section 5.
(e) Adjustment Upon Issuance of Shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents. If the Company issues or sells, or in accordance with this Section 5(e) is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock (including the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock owned or held by or for the account of the Company, but excluding shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued by the Company in connection with an Exempt Issuance (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) for a consideration per share (the "New Issuance Price") less than a price (the "Applicable Price") equal to the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issue or sale or deemed issuance or sale (the foregoing a "Dilutive Issuance"), then immediately after such Dilutive Issuance, the Exercise Price then in effect shall be reduced to an amount equal to the New Issuance Price. Upon each such adjustment of th e Exercise Price hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares shall be adjusted in accordance with Section 5(k) below. The adjustments required by this paragraph and by Sections 5(e)(i)-(iv) below are referred to in the singular, as a Subsequent Issuance Adjustment, and collectively as Subsequent Issuance Adjustments. For purposes of determining the adjusted Exercise Price under this Section 5(e), the following shall be applicable:
(i)
Issuance of Options. If the Company in any manner grants any Options and the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of any such Option or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of any such Option is less than the Applicable Price, then such share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the granting or sale of such Option for such price per share. For purposes of this Section 5(e)(i), the "lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon exercise of such Options or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Securities" shall be equal to the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to any one share of Common Stock upon the granting or sale of the Option, upon exercise of the Option and upon conversio n, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Security issuable upon exercise of such Option.
10
(ii)
Issuance of Convertible Securities. If the Company in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities and the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof is less than the Applicable Price, then such share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities for such price per share. For the purposes of this Section 5(e)(ii), the "lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange" shall be equal to the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to one share of Common Stock upon the issuance or sale of the Convertible Security and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Security. In the case of a Convertible Security which is accompanied Options (collectively, a Unit), the "lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Security shall equal (i) the consideration deemed received in exchange for the Convertible Security, as determined in accordance with subsection 5(e)(iv) below, divided by (ii) the total number of shares into which such Convertible Security is convertible or exchangeable (without regard to any contractual limitation on the timing or amount of conversions).
(iii)
Change in Option Price or Rate of Conversion. If the purchase price provided for in any Options, the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issue, conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities, or the rate at which any Convertible Securities are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock increases or decreases at any time, the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares in effect at the time of such increase or decrease shall be adjusted to the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares which would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities provided for such increased or decreased purchase price, additional consideration or increased or decreased conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold. For purposes of this Section 5(e)(iii), if the terms of any Option or Convertible Security that was outstanding as of the date of issuance of this Note ar e increased or decreased in the manner described in the immediately preceding sentence, then such Option or Convertible Security and the shares of Common Stock deemed issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of such increase or decrease. No adjustment pursuant to this Section 5(e)(iii) shall be made if such adjustment would result in an increase of the Exercise Price then in effect or a decrease in the number of Warrant Shares.
(iv) Calculation of Consideration Received. In case any Option is issued in connection with the issue or sale of other securities of the Company, together comprising one integrated transaction, the Options will be deemed to have been issued for their Black Scholes value, and the other securities issued or sold in such integrated transaction will be deemed to have been issued or sold for the balance of the consideration received by the Company. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold for cash, the consideration received therefor will be deemed to be the net amount received by the Company therefor. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of such consideration received by the Company will be the fair value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of securities, in which cas e the amount of consideration received by the Company will be the Weighted Average Price of such security on the date of receipt. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued to the owners of the non-surviving entity in connection with any merger in which the Company is the surviving entity, the amount of consideration therefor will be deemed to be the fair value of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving entity as is attributable to such shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, as the case may be. The fair value of any consideration other than cash or securities will be determined jointly by the Company and the Required Warrant Holders. If such parties are unable to reach agreement within ten (10) days after the occurrence of an event requiring valuation (the "Valuation Event"), the fair value of such consideration will be determined within five (5) Business Days after the tenth day following the Val uation Event by an independent, reputable appraiser jointly selected by the Company and the Required Warrant Holders. The determination of such appraiser shall be final and binding upon all parties absent manifest error and the fees and expenses of such appraiser shall be borne by the Company.

If the Company takes a record of the holders of shares of Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (i) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in shares of Common Stock, Options or in Convertible Securities or (ii) to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, then such record date will be deemed to be the date of the issue or sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may be.
For purposes hereof:

Such adjustment shall be made whenever such rights or warrants are issued, and shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights, options or warrants.

(g)
Milestone Adjustments. If the Company shall have failed (each a Milestone Failure) to meet or exceed any of the milestone goals (Milestone Goals) that are set forth on Schedule 5(g) annexed hereto for the following period (the Milestone Period): the twelve (12) month period ending April 30, 2009 (the Milestone Date), as reported in the Companys Form 10-Q (or Form 10-K, if applicable) for such fiscal period, then the Exercise Price shall be reduced (but not increased) (a Milestone Adjustment) to equal the lesser of (a) the Exercise Price then in effect, (b) the Market Price as determined on the applicable Milestone Date, or (c) the Market Price as determined on the date (each, a Milestone Adjustment Date) that is five (5) Trading Days after the date that Company files its next Form 10-Q (or Form 10-K, if applicable) with the Commission following the e nd of the applicable Milestone Period (the Milestone Adjustment Price).
Each such adjustment shall be effective as of the first day following each Milestone Date (by way of example, if the Milestone Goal is not met for the Milestone Period ending October 31, 2008, the reduction is effective immediately on November 1, 2008). As to any Exercises by the Holder that occurred following the end of a Milestone Period but prior to the date the Companys periodic report was filed (Interim Period), the Company shall retroactively send the Holder additional Warrant Shares (Interim Warrant Shares) within 3 Trading Days of the date of the applicable filing if an adjustment is required hereunder (provided that to the extent any such shares would cause the Beneficial Ownership Limitation to be exceeded, such excess shares shall not be issued and delivered until such time as such shares may be so issued without exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation). The number of additional Warrant Shares issued shall be equal to the number of Warrant Shares receivable from such Exercises based on the adjusted Exercise Price less any Warrant Shares previously received on account of such Exercises. Any subsequent restatements of the Companys financials shall require similar retroactive issuances if the aforementioned events are subsequently deemed to have occurred. The Company shall provide written notice to the Holder no later than 1 Business Day following the Companys filing of the applicable periodic report with the Commission, indicating therein the new Exercise Price, the increased number of shares represented by the Warrant, and the revenue and EBITDA for the applicable Milestone Period. In the event that there is an adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to any other provision under this Warrant during the Interim Period, the Exercise Price shall be the lower of (i) the Exercise Price as adjusted pursuant to the other provisions of this Warrant and (ii) the new Exercise Price as determined hereunde r. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the provision shall only have the effect of reducing the Exercise Price and (ii) each adjustment shall be permanent notwithstanding future Revenue or the achievement of any other milestones and cumulative with any other adjustments hereunder.
(h)

13
(i)
Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company at any time subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification or otherwise) the shares of Common Stock acquirable hereunder into a greater number of shares, then, after the date of record for effecting such subdivision, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced and the number of shares represented by this Warrant shall proportionally increase. If the Company at any time combines (by reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification or otherwise) the shares of Common Stock acquirable hereunder into a smaller number of shares, then, after the date of record for effecting such combination, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased and the number of shares represented by this Warrant shall proportionally decrease.
(j) Voluntary Adjustment By Company. The Company may at any time during the term of this Warrant reduce the then current Exercise Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of the Company (a Voluntary Adjustment).
(k) Adjustment to Number of Shares. In the event of any adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to the terms of this Warrant, including but not limited to any Subsequent Issuance Adjustment any Subsequent Rights Offering Adjustment, or any Voluntary Adjustment, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon Exercise of this Warrant shall be increased such that the aggregate Exercise Price payable in a full Cash Exercise hereunder, after taking into account the decrease in the Exercise Price, shall be equal to the aggregate Exercise Price payable in a full Cash Exercise prior to such adjustment, and the number of Warrant Shares issuable in a Cashless Exercise shall be increased accordingly.
(l) Notice of Adjustments; Notice Failure Adjustment. The Company shall notify the Holder in writing, no later than one (1) Business Day following any Dilutive Issuance, indicating therein the applicable issuance price, or applicable reset price, exchange price, conversion price, exercise price and other pricing terms (such notice, the Dilutive Issuance Notice). In the event that the Company fails to provide the Holder with an Exercise Price Adjustment Notice within five (5) Business Days of any Dilutive Issuance (the Dilutive Issuance Notice Deadline), the Exercise Price shall be permanently reduced (but not increased) on the Dilutive Issuance Notice Deadline, and on the same day of each calendar month thereafter until such notice is given (each, a Notice Failure Adjustment Date), or in each case if not a business day, then on the next business day (each, a Notice Failure Adjustment) to a price equal to the lesser of (a) the Exercise Price then in effect or (b) 100% of the VWAP for five (5) trading day period immediately preceding the applicable Notice Failure Adjustment Date (collectively, the Notice Failure Adjustment Price).
14
Whenever the Exercise Price is required to be adjusted pursuant to the terms of this Warrant, the Company shall within Five (5) Business Days mail to the Holder a notice (a Exercise Price Adjustment Notice) setting forth the new Exercise Price and specifying the new number of shares into which the Warrant is convertible after such adjustment and setting forth a statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. The Company shall, upon the written request at any time of the Holder, furnish to such Holder a like Warrant setting forth (i) such adjustment or readjustment, (ii) the Exercise Price at the time in effect and (iii) the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other securities or property which at the time would be received upon Exercise of the Warrant, following delivery of the original Warrant to the Company for exchange. If the Company issues Variable Equity Securities (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement), despite the prohibitio n thereon in the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company shall be deemed to have issued Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents at the lowest possible conversion or exercise price at which such securities may be converted or exercised. For purposes of clarification, whether or not the Corporation provides an Exercise Price Adjustment Notice pursuant to this Section 5(l), upon the occurrence of any event that leads to an adjustment of the Exercise Price, the Holders are entitled to receive an Exercise Price and a number of Exercise Shares based upon the new Exercise Price, as adjusted, for exercises occurring on or after the date of such adjustment, regardless of whether a Holder accurately refers to the adjusted Exercise Price in the Notice of Exercise.
(m) Notice to Allow Exercise by Holder. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Common Stock; (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock; (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights; (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, of any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property; (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company; then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be mailed to the Holder at its last address as it shall appear upon the Warrant Register of the Company, at least 20 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; provided that the failure to mail such no tice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. The Holder is entitled to exercise this Warrant during the period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice.
15
(n) Purchase Rights. In addition to any other adjustments described herein, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the Purchase Rights), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the proportionate number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of s uch Purchase Rights.
6.
Fractional Interests.
No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issuable upon the Exercise of this Warrant, but on Exercise of this Warrant, Holder may purchase only a whole number of shares of Common Stock. If, on Exercise of this Warrant, Holder would be entitled to a fractional share of Common Stock or a right to acquire a fractional share of Common Stock, such fractional share shall be disregarded and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon Exercise shall be the next closest number of whole shares.
7.
Reservation of Shares.
From and after the date hereof, the Company shall at all times reserve for issuance such number of authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock (or other securities substituted therefor as herein above provided) equal to 125% (the Minimum Warrant Share Reservation Amount) of such number as shall be sufficient for the Exercise of this Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price in full without regard to any Beneficial Ownership Limitation. If at any time the number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved for issuance is below 125% of the number of shares sufficient for the Exercise of this Warrant (a Share Authorization Failure)(based on the Exercise Price in effect from time to time), the Company will promptly take all corporate action necessary to authorize and reserve a sufficient number of shares, including, without limitation, calling a special meeting of stockholders to authorize additional shares to meet the Company's obligations under this Section 7, in the case of an insufficient number of authorized shares, and using its best efforts to obtain stockholder approval of an increase in such authorized number of shares such that the number of shares authorized and reserved for the Exercise of this Warrant shall exceed the Minimum Warrant Share Reservation Amount. The Company covenants and agrees that upon the Exercise of this Warrant, all shares of Common Stock issuable upon such Exercise shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid, nonassessable and not subject to liens, claims, preemptive rights, rights of first refusal or similar rights of any person or entity.
8.
Restrictions on Transfer.
(a) Registration or Exemption Required. This Warrant has been issued in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Act by virtue of Regulation D and exempt from state registration under applicable state laws.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) shall not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, and (ii) shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable sha res of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant.
10.
Rights Upon Major Transaction or Change of Entity Transaction.
(a) Definitions. For purposes hereof,
Change of Entity Transaction means (i) a consolidation, merger, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, business combination or other similar event, (A) following which the holders of Common Stock immediately preceding such consolidation, merger, combination or event either (1) no longer hold a majority of the shares of Common Stock of the Company or (2) no longer have the ability to elect the board of directors of the Company or (B) as a result of which shares of Common Stock shall be changed into (or the shares of Common Stock become entitled to receive) the same or a different number of shares of the same or another class or classes of stock or securities of the Company or another entity.

18
For purposes hereof, Required Warrant Holders shall mean the Holders of greater than seventy five percent (75%) of the then outstanding Warrants (determined by the number of unexercised underlying shares).
(c) Notice of Major Transaction; Redemption Right Upon Major Transaction. At least thirty (30) days prior to the consummation of a Major Transaction, but not prior to the public announcement of such transaction, the Company shall deliver written notice thereof to the Holder (a Major Transaction Notice), which notice shall specify the nature and terms of the proposed transaction and nature of the Successor Entity (if any).
(d) Redemption Right Upon Major Transaction. At any time during the period beginning after the Holder's receipt of a Major Transaction Notice and ending on the Trading Day immediately prior to the consummation of such Major Transaction, the Holder may require the Company to redeem all or any portion of the Holders Warrant by delivering written notice thereof (Major Transaction Redemption Notice) to the Company, which Major Transaction Redemption Notice shall indicate the number of Warrant Shares of its Warrant (the Redemption Warrant Amount) that the Holder is electing to be redeemed.
The portion of this Warrant subject to redemption pursuant to this Section 10(d) shall be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price equal to 100% of the greater of (i) the Black Scholes value (as defined below) of the remaining outstanding portion of the Warrant to be redeemed on the date the Major Transaction is consummated calculated using the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model and (ii) the Black-Scholes value of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant to be redeemed on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date that the Major Transaction Redemption Price (as defined below) is paid to the Holder (the greater of which is referred to as the Major Transaction Redemption Price). For purposes hereof, the Black-Scholes value of a Warrant shall be determined by use of the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model reflecting (A) a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the remaining term of this Warran t as of such date of request and (B) an expected volatility equal to the greater of 100% and the 100 day volatility obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg.
(e) Escrow; Payment of Major Transaction Redemption Price. The Company shall not effect a Major Transaction unless it shall first place, or shall cause the Successor Entity to place, into an escrow account with an independent escrow agent, prior to or concurrently with the closing date of the Major Transaction (the Major Transaction Escrow Deadline), an amount equal to the Major Transaction Redemption Price. Concurrently upon closing of any Major Transaction, the Company shall pay or shall instruct the escrow agent to pay the Major Transaction Redemption Price to the Holder, which payment shall constitute a Redemption Upon Major Transaction of the Warrants.
19
(f) Injunction. In the event that the Company attempts to consummate a Major Transaction without placing the Major Transaction Redemption Price in escrow in accordance with subsection (e) above or without payment of the Major Transaction Redemption Price to the Holder upon consummation of such Major Transaction, the Buyer shall have the right to apply for an injunction in any state or federal courts sitting in the City of New York, borough of Manhattan to prevent the closing of such Major Transaction until the Major Transaction Redemption Price is paid to the Holder, in full.
(g) Mechanics of Redemptions Upon Major Transactions.
Redemptions required by this Section 10 shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 12. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 10, until the Major Transaction Redemption Price is paid in full, the portion of the Warrant submitted for redemption under this Section may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into shares of Common Stock, or in the event the Exercise Date is after the consummation of a Major Transaction, into shares of common stock (or their equivalent) of the Successor Entity pursuant to Section 10(b). Unless otherwise indicated by the Holder in the applicable Notice of Exercise, any amount of this Warrant exercised during the period from the date of the Major Transaction Redemption Notice until the date the Major Transaction Redemption Price is paid in full shall be considered to be an exercise (instead of a Redemption) of a portion of the Warrant that would have been subject to such Redemption, and any amounts of this Warrant exer cised from time to time during such period shall exercised in full into Common Stock at the Exercise Price then in effect, and the number of shares of this Warrant so exercised into Common Stock shall be deducted from the number of Warrants that are subject to redemption hereunder. The parties hereto agree that in the event of the Company's redemption of any portion of the Warrant under this Section 10(d), the Holder's damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties' inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for the Holder. Accordingly, any redemption premium due under this Section 10 is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a reasonable estimate of the Holder's actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty.
11.
Default and Redemption.
(a) Events of Default. Each of the following events which occur while any Warrants are outstanding shall be considered to be an Event of Default:
20

(iv) Legend Removal Failure.

(v) Corporate Existence; Major Transaction. The Company has effected a Major Transaction without paying the Major Transaction Redemption Price to the Holder pursuant to Section 10(d) or, if the Holder did not elect a Redemption Upon Major Transaction, the Company has failed to meet the Assumption Requirements of Section 10(b) prior to effecting a Major Transaction.
(vi) Failure to Adjust Exercise Price; Failure to Comply With Dispute Resolution Procedures. The Company shall have failed to comply in good faith with the Dispute Resolution Procedures (as defined herein) or shall have failed to adjust the Exercise Price as required under Section 5(e) following a Dilutive Issuance, or otherwise (after any applicable Dispute Resolution Procedure required herein), and such failure continues for ten (10) Business Days after the Holder provides written notice to the Company that such performance by the Company is past due.
(b) Mandatory Redemption; Certain Adjustments on Default.
(i) Mandatory Redemption Amount. If any Events of Default shall occur and any such Event of Default continues for an additional ten (10) Business Days after the Holder provides written notice to the Company that an Event of Default has occurred and specifying the factual basis therefor, then thereafter, unless waived by the Holder, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, at the option of the Holder, such option exercisable through the delivery of written notice to the Company by such Holder (the Default Notice), the outstanding amount of this Warrant shall be immediately redeemed by the Company and the Company shall pay to the Holder (a Mandatory Redemption) an amount (the Mandatory Redemption Amount or the Default Amount) equal to 100% of the greater of (i) the Black-Scholes value of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of such Default Notic e and (2) the Black-Scholes value of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date that the Mandatory Redemption Amount is paid to the Holder.
21
The Mandatory Redemption Amount shall be payable, in cash or cash equivalent, within five (5) business days of the Date of the applicable Default Notice (the Default Amount Due Date). If the Company fails to pay the Mandatory Redemption Amount within thirty (30) days of the Default Amount Due Date, then (A) the Exercise Price shall be permanently decreased (but not increased) on the first Trading Day of each calendar month thereafter (each a Default Adjustment Date) until the Default Amount is paid in full, to a price equal to the lesser of (i) the Exercise Price then in effect, or (ii) the lowest Market Price that has occurred on any Default Adjustment Date since the date that the Event of Default began. Notwithstanding the occurrence of an Event of Default, Failure Payments and any other Required Cash Payments (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) shall continue to accrue. On the date that is five (5) Business Days after the Companys receipt of the Holders Default Notice, the Default Amount, together with all other amounts payable hereunder, shall immediately become due and payable, all without demand, presentment or notice, all of which hereby are expressly waived, together with all costs, including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses, of collection, and the Holder shall be entitled to exercise all other rights and remedies available at law or in equity, and (B) .
If the Company fails to pay the Default Amount within the (10)Business Days of written notice that such amount is due and payable (the Default Amount Due Date), then interest shall accrue thereon at a rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum, compounded monthly (or the maximum amount allowed by applicable law, whichever is less), and the Holder shall have the right at any time, so long as the Company remains in default (and so long and to the extent that there are sufficient authorized shares), to require the Company, upon written notice (Default Exercise Notice) (which may be given one or more times, from time to time anytime after the Default Amount Due Date), to immediately issue (a Default Exercise), in lieu of all or any specified portion (the Specified Portion) of the unpaid portion (the Unpaid Portion) of the Default Amount, a number (the Default Share Amount) of shares (the Default Shares) of Common Stock, subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, equal to the Specified Portion of the Default Amount divided by the Exercise Price in effect on the date such shares are issued to the Holder, PROVIDED THAT, the Holder may require that such payment of shares be made in one or more installments at such time and in such amounts as Holder chooses. The Default shares are due within five (5) Business Days of the date that the Holder delivers a Default Exercise Notice to the Company (the Default Share Delivery Deadline).
Upon a Default Exercise, the Company shall be required to deliver a number of Common Shares to the Holder equal to the applicable Default Share Amount (as described above).
If the Company is unable to redeem all of the Warrants submitted for redemption, the Company shall redeem a pro rata amount from each Holder based on the number of Warrants submitted for redemption by such Holder relative to the total number of Warrants submitted for redemption by all Holders.
22
The Holder shall not be entitled to receive Default Shares on a given date if and to the extent that such issuance would cause the Beneficial Ownership Limitation then in effect to be exceeded. If and to the extent that the issuance of Default Shares with respect to a given Specified Portion would result in the a violation of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then that particular Specified Portion shall be automatically reduced to a value that would cause the number of Default Shares to be issued to equal the Maximum Percentage, and the amount of such reduction shall be added back to the Unpaid Portion of the Default Amount.
(ii) Liquidated Damages. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the sums payable as liquidated damages or pursuant to a Mandatory Redemption shall give rise to liquidated damages and not penalties.

(c) Redemption by Other Holders. Upon the Company's receipt of notice from any of the holders for redemption or repayment of other Warrants that were issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement (the Other Warrants) as a result of an event or occurrence of an Event of Default or a Major Transaction (each, an Other Redemption Notice), the Company shall immediately, but no later than one (1) Business Day of its receipt thereof, forward to the Holder by facsimile a copy of such notice. If the Company receives a Redemption Notice and one or more Other Redemption Notices, during the seven (7) Business Day period beginning on and including the date which is three (3) Business Days prior to the Company's receipt of the Holder's Redemption Notice and ending on and including the date which is three (3) Business Days after the Company's receipt of the Holder's Redemption Notice and the Company is unable to redeem a ll amounts designated in such Redemption Notice and such Other Redemption Notices received during such seven (7) Business Day period, then the Company shall redeem a pro rata amount from each holder of the Warrants (including the Holder) based on the number of Warrants submitted for redemption pursuant to such Redemption Notice and such Other Redemption Notices received by the Company during such seven (7) Business Day period.
(d) Posting of Bond. In the event that any Event of Default occurs hereunder or any Event of Default occurs under any of the Transaction Documents, the Company may not raise as a legal defense (in any Lawsuit, as defined below, or otherwise) or justification to such Event of Default any claim that such Holder or any one associated or affiliated with such Holder has been engaged in any violation of law, unless the Company has posted a surety bond (a Surety Bond) for the benefit of such Holder in the amount of 130% of the aggregate Surety Bond Value (as defined below) of all of the Holders Debentures and Warrants (the Bond Amount), which Surety Bond shall remain in effect until the completion of litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Holder to the extent Holder obtains judgment.

In the event that the Event of Default referred to in subsection (d) above pertains to the Companys failure to deliver unlegended shares of Common Stock to the Holder pursuant to a Warrant Exercise, legend removal request, or otherwise, the Company may not refuse such unlegended share delivery based on any claim that such Holder or any one associated or affiliated with such Holder has been engaged in any violation of law, unless an injunction from a court, on prior notice to Holder, restraining and or enjoining Exercise of all or part of said Warrant shall have been sought and obtained by the Company and the Company has posted a Surety Bond for the benefit of such Holder in the amount of the Bond Amount (as described above), which Surety Bond shall remain in effect until the completion of litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Holder to the extent Holder obtains judgment.   ;

The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder could cause irreparable harm to the Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the holder of this Warrant could seek, in addition to all other available remedies, an injunction restraining any breach.
12.
Holders Redemptions.

In the event that the Company does not pay the applicable Redemption Price to the Holder within the time period required, at any time thereafter and until the Company pays such unpaid Redemption Price in full, the Holder shall have the option, in lieu of redemption, to require the C ompany to promptly return to the Holder all or any portion of this Warrant that was submitted for redemption and for which the applicable Major Transaction Redemption Price (together with any late charges thereon) has not been paid. Upon the Company's receipt of such notice, (x) the applicable Redemption Notice shall be null and void with respect to such Redemption Share Amount, (y) the Company shall immediately return this Warrant, or issue a new Warrant to the Holder representing the portion of this Warrant that was submitted for redemption. The Holder's delivery of a notice voiding a Redemption Notice and exercise of its rights following such notice shall not affect the Company's obligations to make any payments of Failure Payments which have accrued prior to the date of such notice with respect to the Warrant subject to such notice.
24
(b) Warrants Detachable. The Warrants constitute a separate, detachable security from the Debentures. In the event of any redemption of the Debentures, in whole or in part, by the Company, the Holder shall retain its outstanding Warrants.
13. Remedies, Other Obligations, Breaches and Injunctive Relief. The remedies provided in this Warrant shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the right of the Holder right to pursue actual damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Warrant. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder could cause irreparable harm to the Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the holder of this Warrant could seek, in addition to all other available remedies, an injunction restraining any breach.
14.
Dispute Resolution. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price or the arithmetic calculation of the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon any exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall promptly issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares that are not disputed and resolve such dispute in accordance with this subsection. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the closing price or the Volume Weighted Average Price of the Companys Common Stock or the arithmetic calculation of the Exercise Price, Market Price or any Redemption Price, or the determination of whether or not a Dilutive Issuance or a Milestone Failure has occurred, the Company shall submit the disputed determinations or arithmetic calculations via facsimile within two (2) Business Days of receipt, or deemed receipt, of the Notice of Exercise or Redemption Notice or other event giving rise to such dispute, as the case may be, to the Holder. If the Hold er and the Company are unable to agree upon such determination or calculation within two (2) Business Days of such disputed determination or arithmetic calculation being submitted to the Holder, then the Company shall, within two (2) Business Days submit via facsimile (i) the disputed determination of the closing price or the Volume Weighted Average Price of the Companys Common Stock to an independent, reputable investment bank selected by the Company and approved by the Holder, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, (ii) the disputed arithmetic calculation of the Exercise Price, Market Price or any Redemption Price to the Companys independent, outside accountant or (iii) the disputed facts regarding the occurrence of a Dilutive Issuance or Milestone Failure (or any other matter referred to above that is not expressly designated to the independent investment bank or the independent outside accountant pursuant to (i) or (ii) immediately above) to an expert attorney from a nationally re cognized outside law firm (having at least 50 attorneys and having with no prior relationship with the Company) selected by the Company and approved by the Holder. The Company, at the Companys expense, shall cause the investment bank or the accountant, law firm, or other expert, as the case may be, to perform the determinations or calculations and notify the Company and the Holder of the results no later than five (5) Business Days from the time it receives the disputed determinations or calculations. Such investment banks or accountants determination or calculation, as the case may be, shall be binding upon all parties absent demonstrable error (collectively, the Dispute Resolution Procedures).
