COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
 
Date of Issuance: April 21, 2008
Certificate No. W-NC001
 
For value received, Legend Media, Inc. (formerly known as Noble Quests, Inc.), a Nevada corporation (the "Company"), hereby grants to Newport Capital Asset Management Group, a California corporation, or its permitted transferees and assigns ("Lender"), the right to purchase from the Company a total of 40,000 shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.001 per share ("Common Stock"), at a price per share of equal to $2.50 (the "Initial Exercise Price"). The exercise price and number of Warrant Shares (and the amount and kind of other securities) for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2 hereof. This Warrant is being issued in connection with the Loan Agreement between Lender and the Company dated April 21, 2008 (the "Loan Agreement"). Certain capital-ized terms used herein are defined in Section 4 hereof.
 
This Warrant is subject to the following provisions:
 
SECTION 1.   Exercise of Warrant.
 
(a)  Terms of Warrants; Exercise Period. Subject to the terms of this Warrant, the Registered Holder shall have the right, commencing on the date hereof and expiring on the three year anniversary hereof (the "Expiration Date"), to exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, and receive from the Company the number of Warrant Shares which the Registered Holder may at the time be entitled to receive on either: (1) exercise of this Warrant and payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price then in effect for the Warrant Shares ("Cash Exercise"), or (2) exercise of this Warrant by Cashless Exercise, as defined in Section 1(b). To the extent not exercised prior to the Expiration Date, this Warrant shall become void and all rights thereunder and all rights in respect thereof under this Agreement shall cease as of such time.
 
(b)  Cashless Exercise. In lieu of exercising the Warrant by Cash Exercise, the Registered Holder may satisfy its obligation to pay the Aggregate Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares through a "cashless exercise," in which event the Company shall issue to the Registered Holder the number of Warrant Shares determined as follows:
 
 
X = Y [(A-B)/A]
where:
 
 
X = the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder.
   
 
Y = the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is being exercised.
   
 
A = the arithmetic average of the Last Sale Price of the Common Stock for the five Trading Days immediately prior to (but not including) the Exercise Time.
   
 
B = the Exercise Price.
 

 
(c)  Exercise Procedure.
 
(i)  This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exer-cised on the date specified in a written notice from the Registered Holder to the Company (the "Exercise Time") and within three Business Days following the Exercise Time, the Registered Holder shall deliver the following to the Company:
 
(A) a completed Exercise Notice, as described in Section 1(d) below, in which Registered Holder shall provide all information requested therein including whether the warrant is being exercised by Cash Exercise or Cashless Exercise;
 
(B) this Warrant;
 
(C) if this Warrant is not registered in the name of the Registered Holder, an Assignment or Assignments in the form set forth in Exhibit II hereto evidencing the assignment of this Warrant to the Registered Holder, in which case the Registered Holder shall have complied with the pro-visions set forth in Section 6 hereof; and
 
(D) if the Warrant is being exercised by Cash Exercise, a check payable to the Company in an amount equal to the product of the Exercise Price (as such term is de-fined in Section 2) multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares being purchased upon such exercise (the "Aggregate Exercise Price").
 
(ii)  Certificates for Warrant Shares purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be delivered by the Company to the Registered Holder within five Business Days after the date of the Exercise Time. Unless this Warrant has expired or all of the purchase rights represented hereby have been exercised, the Company shall prepare a new Warrant, substantially identical hereto, representing the rights formerly represented by this Warrant that have not expired or been exercised and shall, within such five day period, deliver such new Warrant to the Person designated for delivery in the Exercise Notice.
 
2

 
(iii)  The Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been issued to the Registered Holder at the Exercise Time, and the Registered Holder shall be deemed for all purposes to have become the record holder of such Warrant Shares at the Exercise Time.
 
(iv)  The Company shall not close its books against the transfer of this Warrant or of any Warrant Shares issued or issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant in any manner which interferes with the timely exercise of this Warrant.
 
(v)  The Company shall assist and cooperate with the Registered Holder or any Registered Holder required to make any governmental filings or obtain any governmental approvals prior to or in connection with any exercise of this Warrant.
 
(vi)  The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued capital stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon the exercise of this Warrant, the maximum number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant. All Warrant Shares which are so issuable shall, when issued and upon the payment of the Exercise Price therefor, be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges. The Company shall take all such ac-tions as may be necessary to assure that all such Warrant Shares may be so issued without violation by the Company of any applica-ble law or governmen-tal regulation or any requirements of any domestic securities exchange upon which securities of the Company may be listed (except for official notice of issuance which shall be immediately deliv-ered by the Company upon each such issuance).
 
(d)  Exercise Notice. Upon any exercise of this Warrant, the Registered Holder shall deliver an Exercise Notice in the form set forth in Exhibit I hereto, except that if the Warrant Shares are not to be issued in the name of the Person in whose name this Warrant is registered, the Exercise Notice shall also state the name of the Person to whom the certificates for the Warrant Shares are to be issued, and if the number of Warrant Shares to be issued does not include all the Warrant Shares purchasable or which can be acquired by Cashless Exercise here-under, it shall also state the name of the Person to whom a new Warrant for the unexer-cised portion of the rights hereunder is to be issued. Such Exercise Notice shall be dated the actual date of execution thereof.
 
SECTION 2.   Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares. In order to prevent dilution of the rights granted under this Warrant, the Initial Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 2 (such price or such price as last adjusted pursuant to the terms hereof, as the case may be, is herein called the "Exercise Price"), and the number of Warrant Shares obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 2.
 
(a)  Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolida-tion, Merger or Sale. In case of any reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, merger, sale of all or substan-tially all of the Company's assets to another Person or any other change in the Common Stock of the Company, other than as a result of a subdivision, combination, or stock dividend provided for in Section 2(b) below (any of which, a "Change Event"), then, as a condition of such Change Event, lawful provision shall be made, and duly executed documents evidencing the same from the Company or its successor shall be delivered to the Registered Holder, so that the Registered Holder shall have the right at any time prior to the expiration of this Warrant to purchase, at a total price equal to that payable upon the exercise of this Warrant (subject to adjustment of the Exercise Price as provided in Section 2), the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property receivable in connection with such Change Event by a holder of the same number of shares of Common Stock as were purchasable by the Registered Holder immediately prior to such Change Event. In any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interest of the Registered Holder so that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable with respect to any shares of stock or other securities and property deliverable upon exercise hereof, and appropriate adjustments shall be made to the purchase price per share payable hereunder, provided the aggregate purchase price shall remain the same.
 
3

 
(b)  Subdivisions, Combinations and Other Issuances. If the Company shall at any time prior to the expiration of this Warrant (i) subdivide its Common Stock, by split-up or otherwise, or combine its Common Stock, or (ii) issue additional shares of its Common Stock or other equity securities as a dividend with respect to any shares of its Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on the exercise of this Warrant shall forthwith be proportionately increased in the case of a subdivision or stock, or proportionately decreased in the case of a combination. Appropriate adjustments shall also be made to the purchase price payable per share, but the aggregate purchase price payable for the total number of Warrant Shares purchasable under this Warrant (as adjusted) shall remain the same. Any adjustment under this Section 2(b) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective, or as of the record date of such dividend, or in the event that no record date is fixed, upon the making of such dividend.
 
(c)  Issuance of New Warrant. Upon the occurrence of any of the events listed in this Section 2 that results in an adjustment of the type, number or exercise price of the securities underlying this Warrant, the Registered Holder shall have the right to receive a new warrant reflecting such adjustment upon the Registered Holder tendering this Warrant in exchange. The new warrant shall otherwise have terms identical to this Warrant.
 
(d)  Notices.
 
(i)  The Company shall give written notice to the Regis-tered Holder of this Warrant at least 10 days prior to the date on which the Company closes its books or takes a record for determining rights to vote with respect to any event described in this Section 2 or any dissolu-tion or liquidation so long as Registered Holder agrees to execute a confidentiality agreement if such information has not been disclosed to Company's shareholders.
 
(ii)  The Company shall also give written notice to the Registered Holder of this Warrant at least 10 days prior to the date on which any event described in this Section 2 or any dissolution or liquidation shall take place so long as Registered Holder agrees to execute a confidentiality agreement if such information has not been disclosed to Company's shareholders.
