     5. ADJUSTMENT PROVISIONS. The number and character of shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (or any shares of stock or other securities or property at the time receivable or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) and the Warrant Price therefor, are subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of the following events between the date this Warrant is issued and the date it is exercised:
          5.1 Adjustment for Stock Splits, Stock Dividends, Recapitalizations, etc. The Warrant Price of this Warrant and the number of shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall each be proportionally adjusted to reflect any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, reclassification, recapitalization or other similar event affecting the number of outstanding shares of Warrant Stock (or such other stock or securities).
          5.2 Adjustment for Other Dividends and Distributions. In case the Company shall make or issue, or shall fix a record date for the determination of eligible holders entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable respect to the Warrant Stock that is payable in (a) securities of the Company (other than issuances with respect to which adjustment is made under Section 5.1), or (b) assets (other than cash dividends paid or payable solely out of retained earnings), then, and in each such case, the Holder, upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation, effective date or record date of such event, shall receive, in addition to the shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon such exercise prior to such date, the securities or such other assets of the Company to which the Holder would have been entitled upon such date if the Holder had exercised this Warrant immediately prior thereto (all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Warrant).
          5.3 Adjustment for Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger. Other than any reorganization, consolidation or merger that constitutes a Liquidation Event, in case of any reorganization of the Company (or of any other corporation, the stock or other securities of which are at the time receivable on the exercise of this Warrant), after the date of this Warrant, or in case, after such date, the Company (or any such corporation) shall consolidate with or merge into another corporation or convey all or substantially all of its assets to another corporation and then distribute the proceeds to its stockholders, then, and in each such case, the Holder, upon the exercise of this Warrant (as provided in Section 2), at any time after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation, merger or conveyance, shall be entitled to receive, in lieu of the stock or other securities and property receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant prior to such consummation, the stock or other securities or property to which the Holder would have been entitled upon the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation, merger or conveyance if the Holder had exercised this Warrant immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Warrant, and the successor or purchasing corporation in such reorganization, consolidation, merger or conveyance (if other than the Company) shall duly execute and deliver to the Holder a supplement hereto acknowledging such corporation’s obligations under this Warrant; and in each such case, the terms of this Warrant shall be applicable to the shares of stock or other securities or property receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation, merger or conveyance.
          5.4 Conversion of Stock. In case all the authorized Warrant Stock of the Company is converted, pursuant to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, into Common

4


 

Stock or other securities or property, or the Warrant Stock otherwise ceases to exist, then, in such case, the Holder, upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the date on which the Warrant Stock is so converted or ceases to exist (the “Termination Date”), shall receive, in lieu of the number of shares of Warrant Stock that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the Termination Date (the “Former Number of Shares of Warrant Stock”), the stock and other securities and property which the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the Termination Date if the Holder had exercised this Warrant with respect to the Former Number of Shares of Warrant Stock immediately prior to the Termination Date (all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Warrant).
          5.5 Notice of Adjustments. The Company shall promptly give written notice of each adjustment or readjustment of the Warrant Price or the number of shares of Warrant Stock or other securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The notice shall describe the adjustment or readjustment and show in reasonable detail the facts on which the adjustment or readjustment is based.
          5.6 No Change Necessary. The form of this Warrant need not be changed because of any adjustment in the Warrant Price or in the number of shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon its exercise.
          5.7 Reservation of Stock. If at any time the number of shares of Warrant Stock or other securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall not be sufficient to effect the exercise of this Warrant, the Company will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Warrant Stock or other securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant as shall be sufficient for such purpose.
     6. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF HOLDER. Holder hereby represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Company, that:
          6.1 Purchase for Own Account. The Warrant, the Warrant Stock and the Company’s Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such Warrant Stock (collectively, the “Securities”) will be acquired for investment for Holder’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the public resale or distribution thereof within the meaning of the 1933 Act, and Holder has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same.
          6.2 Disclosure of Information. Holder has received or has had full access to all the information it considers necessary or appropriate to make an informed investment decision with respect to the Securities. Holder further has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the offering of the Securities and to obtain additional information (to the extent the Company possessed such information or could acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense) necessary to verify any information furnished to Holder or to which Holder had access.
          6.3 Investment Experience. Holder understands that the purchase of the Securities involves substantial risk. Holder (i) has experience as an investor in securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that Holder is able to fend for itself, can

5


 

bear the economic risk of Holder’s investment in the Securities and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that Holder is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of this investment in the Securities and protecting its own interests in connection with this investment and/or (ii) has a preexisting personal or business relationship with the Company and certain of its officers, directors or controlling persons of a nature and duration that enables Holder to be aware of the character, business acumen and financial circumstances of such persons.
          6.4 Restricted Securities. Holder understands that the Securities are characterized as “restricted securities” under the 1933 Act and Rule 144 promulgated thereunder inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering, and that under the 1933 Act and applicable regulations thereunder such securities may be resold without registration under the 1933 Act only in certain limited circumstances. In this connection, Holder is familiar with Rule 144, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the 1933 Act. Holder understands that the Company is under no obligation to register any of the securities sold hereunder. Holder understands that no public market now exists for any of the Securities and that it is uncertain whether a public market will ever exist for the Securities.
          6.5 No Solicitation. At no time was Holder presented with or solicited by any publicly issued or circulated newspaper, mail, radio, television or other form of general advertising or solicitation in connection with the offer, sale and purchase of the Securities.
          6.6 Further Limitations on Disposition. Without in any way limiting the representations set forth above, Holder further agrees not to make any disposition of all or any portion of the Securities unless and until:
               (a) there is then in effect a registration statement under the 1933 Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with such registration statement; or
               (b) Holder shall have notified the Company of the proposed disposition, and shall have furnished the Company with a statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and, upon request of the Company, with an opinion of counsel, at the expense of Holder or its transferee, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such disposition will not require registration of such securities under the 1933 Act.
Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) above, no such registration statement or opinion of counsel shall be required: (i) for any transfer of the Securities in compliance with Rule 144 or Rule 144A; or (ii) for any transfer of the Securities by Holder that is a partnership, limited liability company or a corporation to (A) a partner of such partnership, a member of such limited liability company or stockholder of such corporation, (B) a controlled affiliate of such partnership or corporation, (C) a retired partner of such partnership who retires after the date hereof, (D) the estate of any such partner, member or stockholder or (iii) for the transfer by gift, will or intestate succession by Holder to his or her spouse or lineal descendants or ancestors or any trust for any of the foregoing; provided that in each of the foregoing cases under clause (ii), no additional consideration is paid and the transferee agrees in writing to be subject to the

6


 

restrictions on transfer set forth in this Warrant to the same extent as if the transferee were the original Holder hereunder.
          6.7 Legends. Holder understands and agrees that the certificates evidencing the Securities will bear legends substantially similar to those set forth below in addition to any other legend that may be required by applicable law, by the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, or by any agreement between the Company and Holder:
               (a) THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF APPLICABLE STATES. THESE SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY AND RESALE AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED OR RESOLD EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER THE ACT AND THE APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, PURSUANT TO REGISTRATION OR EXEMPTION THEREFROM. INVESTORS SHOULD BE AWARE THAT THEY MAY BE REQUIRED TO BEAR THE FINANCIAL RISKS OF THIS INVESTMENT FOR AN INDEFINITE PERIOD OF TIME. THE ISSUER OF THESE SECURITIES MAY REQUIRE AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER TO THE EFFECT THAT ANY PROPOSED TRANSFER OR RESALE IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.
               (b) Any legend required by the laws of the State of California, including any legend required by the California Department of Corporations and Sections 417 and 418 of the California Corporations Code or any other state securities laws.
     The legend set forth in (a) above shall be removed by the Company from any certificate evidencing the Securities upon delivery to the Company of an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that a registration statement under the 1933 Act is at that time in effect with respect to the legended security or that such security can be freely transferred in a public sale (other than pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 145 under the 1933 Act) without such a registration statement being in effect and that such transfer will not jeopardize the exemption or exemptions from registration pursuant to which the Company issued the Securities. No opinion shall be required for routine transactions under Rule 144 or, if applicable, Rule 701.
     6.8 Market Stand-Off Agreement. Holder hereby agrees that it shall not, to the extent requested by the Company or an underwriter of securities of the Company, sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of any Securities or other shares of stock of the Company then owned by such Holder (other than to donees or partners of Holder who agree to be similarly bound) for up to one hundred eighty (180) days following the effective date of a registration statement of the Company filed under the 1933 Act. For purposes of this Section 6.8, the term “Companyshall include any wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company into which the Company merges or consolidates. In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company shall have the right to place the following restrictive legend on the certificates representing the shares subject to this Section and to impose stop transfer instructions with respect to the Securities and such other Company securities of Holder (and the shares or securities of every other person subject to the foregoing restriction) until the end of such period. Holder further agrees to enter

7


 

into any agreement reasonably required by the underwriters to implement the foregoing within any reasonable timeframe so requested.
THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO A 180 DAY MARKET STAND-OFF RESTRICTION AS SET FORTH IN A CERTAIN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE ISSUER AND THE ORIGINAL HOLDER OF THESE SHARES, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE ISSUER. AS A RESULT OF SUCH AGREEMENT, THESE SHARES MAY NOT BE TRADED PRIOR TO 180 DAYS AFTER THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE PUBLIC OFFERING OF THE COMMON STOCK OF THE ISSUER HEREOF. SUCH RESTRICTION IS BINDING ON TRANSFEREES OF THESE SHARES.
          6.9 Tax Consequences. HOLDER UNDERSTANDS THAT HOLDER MAY SUFFER ADVERSE TAX CONSEQUENCES AS A RESULT OF THE ISSUANCE OF THE WARRANT TO HOLDER AND HOLDER’S PURCHASE OR DISPOSITION OF THE SHARES OF WARRANT STOCK. HOLDER REPRESENTS (i) THAT HOLDER HAS CONSULTED WITH A TAX ADVISER THAT HOLDER DEEMS ADVISABLE IN CONNECTION WITH THE ISSUANCE OF THE WARRANT AND PURCHASE OR DISPOSITION OF THE SHARES OF WARRANT STOCK AND (ii) THAT HOLDER IS NOT RELYING ON THE COMPANY FOR ANY TAX ADVICE. HOLDER HEREBY ASSUMES ALL RESPONSIBILITY FOR HOLDERS’S TAX CONSEQUENCES RESULTING FROM THE ISSUANCE OF THE WARRANT AND THE PURCHASE OR DISPOSITION OF THE SHARES OF WARRANT STOCK.
     7. NO RIGHTS OR LIABILITIES AS STOCKHOLDER. This Warrant does not by itself entitle Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company. In the absence of affirmative action by Holder to purchase Warrant Stock by exercise of this Warrant, no provisions of this Warrant, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of Holder, shall cause Holder to be a stockholder of the Company for any purpose.
     8. ATTORNEYS’ FEES. In the event any party is required to engage the services of any attorneys for the purpose of enforcing this Warrant, or any provision thereof, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its reasonable expenses and costs in enforcing this Warrant, including attorneys’ fees.
     9. TRANSFER. Except as expressly provided hereunder, neither this Warrant nor any rights hereunder may be assigned, conveyed or transferred by Holder, in whole or in part, without the Company’s prior written consent, which the Company may withhold in its sole discretion. The rights and obligations of the Company and the Holder under this Warrant shall be binding upon and benefit their respective permitted successors, assigns, heirs, administrators and transferees.
     10. GOVERNING LAW. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed under the internal laws of the State of California as applied to agreements among California residents entered into and to be performed entirely within California, without reference to principles of conflict of laws or choice of laws.
