(d) The term “Warrant Shares” shall mean the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.

1. Exercise of Warrant.

1.1. Number of Shares Issuable upon Exercise. From and after the Issue Date through and including the Expiration Date, the Holder hereof shall be entitled to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant in whole or in part, shares of Common Stock of the Company, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 3 below.

1.2. Partial Exercise. This Warrant may be exercised in part (but not for a fractional share) in the manner and at the place provided in Section 1.3, except that the amount payable by the Holder on such partial exercise shall be the amount obtained by multiplying (a) the number of whole shares of Common Stock designated by the Holder in the Subscription Form by (b) the Purchase Price then in effect. On any such partial exercise, provided the Holder has surrendered the original Warrant, the Company, at its expense, will issue and deliver to the Holder hereof a new Warrant of like tenor, in the name of the Holder hereof, the whole number of shares of Common Stock for which such Warrant may still be exercised. The original Warrant is not required to be surrendered to the Company until it has been fully exercised.

1.3. Exercise. Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time before the Expiration Date by delivery to the Company (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered Holder at the address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Company) of a duly executed copy of the form of subscription attached as Exhibit A hereto (the “Subscription Form”) annexed hereto and the Purchase Price by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank. The Company agrees that the shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to be issued to the Holder hereof as the record owner of such shares as of the close of business on the date on which delivery of a Subscription Form and Purchase Price shall have occurred. As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in full or in part the Company will cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to the Holder hereof a certificate for the number of duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) to which Holder shall be entitled on such exercise.

2. Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (A) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity, other than a merger or consolidation that does not result in a Change of Control of the Company, (B) the Company effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (C) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another entity) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property, (D) the Company consummates a stock purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, or spin-off) with one or more persons or entities whereby such other persons or entities acquire more than the 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including any shares of Common Stock held by such other persons or entities making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other persons or entities making or party to, such stock purchase agreement or other business combination), (E) any “person” or “group” (as these terms are used for purposes of Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the 1934 Act), is or shall become the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the 1934 Act), directly or indirectly, of 50% of the aggregate Common Stock of the Company, or (F) the Company effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (in any such case, a “Fundamental Transaction”), then this Warrant shall be cancelled and the Holder shall have no further rights hereunder.

3. Extraordinary Events Regarding Common Stock. In the event that the Company shall (a) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock, or (c) combine its outstanding shares of the Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, then, in each such event, the Purchase Price shall, simultaneously with the happening of such event, be adjusted by multiplying the then Purchase Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the product so obtained shall thereafter be the Purchase Price then in effect. The Purchase Price, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any successive event or events described herein in this Section 4. The number of shares of Common Stock that the Holder of this Warrant shall thereafter, on the exercise hereof, be entitled to receive shall be adjusted to a number determined by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4) be issuable on such exercise by a fraction of which (a) the numerator is the Purchase Price that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4) be in effect, and (b) the denominator is the Purchase Price in effect on the date of such exercise.

4. Warrant Agent. The Company may, by written notice to the Holder of the Warrant, appoint an agent (a “Warrant Agent”) for the purpose of issuing Common Stock (or Other Securities) on the exercise of this Warrant, and thereafter any such issuance, exchange or replacement, as the case may be, shall be made at such office by such Warrant Agent.
