2.1. Manner of Exercise. At any time or from time to time from and after the Issue Date and until 5:00 P.M., Pacific Standard Time, on the Expiration Date, Holder may exercise this Warrant, on any Business Day (the “Exercise Date”), for all or any part of the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder.

(a) In order to exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, Holder shall deliver to the Company at its principal office at 4900 N. Scottsdale Road, Suite 2000, Scottsdale, Arizona 85251 (or any address subsequently indicated in writing by the Company): (i) a written notice of Holder’s election to exercise this Warrant, which notice shall specify the number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased; (ii) payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price in accordance with Section 2.1(b); and (iii) this Warrant. Such notice (an “Exercise Notice”) shall be substantially in the form appearing at the end of this Warrant as Exhibit A, duly executed by Holder. Upon receipt of the items specified in the preceding sentence, the Company shall execute or cause to be executed, and deliver or cause to be delivered to Holder as soon as practicable, a certificate or certificates representing the aggregate number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise, together with cash in lieu of any fraction of a share, as hereinafter provided. The stock certificate or certificates so delivered shall be in such denomination or denominations as Holder shall request in the notice and shall be registered in the name of Holder. This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised and such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have been issued, and Holder shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such shares for all purposes, as of the date the notice, together with the Aggregate Exercise and this Warrant, are received by the Company as described in this Section 2.1. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, appropriate notation may be made on this Warrant and the same returned to Holder.

(b) Payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price shall be made, at the option of the Holder as expressed in the Exercise Notice, by the following methods:

(i) by delivery to the Company of a certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company or by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Company, in the amount of such Aggregate Exercise Price (a “Cash Settlement”);

(ii) by instructing the Company to withhold (and the Company so withholding) a number of Warrant Shares otherwise issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with such Exercise Notice with an aggregate Fair Market Value as of the Exercise Date equal to such Aggregate Exercise Price (a “Cashless Settlement”); or

(iii) by surrendering to the Company shares of Common Stock previously acquired by the Holder with an aggregate Fair Market Value as of the Exercise Date equal to such Aggregate Exercise Price (a “Share Surrender Settlement”).

In the event of any withholding of Warrant Shares or surrender of other equity securities pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) above where the number of shares whose value is equal to the Aggregate Exercise Price is not a whole number, the number of shares withheld by or surrendered to the Company shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share and the Company shall make a cash payment to the Holder (by delivery of a certified or official bank check or by wire transfer of immediately available funds) based on the incremental fraction of a share being so withheld by or surrendered to the Company in an amount equal to the product of (x) such incremental fraction of a share being so withheld or surrendered multiplied by (y) the Fair Market Value per Warrant Share as of the Exercise Date.

2.2. Conditions to Exercise. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if the sale of the Warrant Stock to be received upon exercise of this Warrant has not been registered under the Securities Act, the issuance of such Warrant Stock shall be conditioned upon delivery to the Company of a written certification substantially in the form of the certification attached hereto as Exhibit B, or, at Holder’s election, the delivery to the Company of an opinion of counsel, which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such Warrant Stock may be issued without registration under the Securities Act.

2.3. Payment of Taxes. All shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and without any preemptive rights. The Company shall pay all expenses in

connection with, and all taxes and other governmental charges that may be imposed with respect to, the issue or delivery thereof, other than income or other taxes payable by Holder (whether such taxes are imposed on the Holder by withholding or otherwise).

2.4. Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue a fractional share of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share that Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of such fraction in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of such fraction.

3.1. Transfer. Neither this Warrant nor any rights hereunder shall be transferred, in whole or in part, unless such transfer is registered pursuant to the Securities Act, or pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act. Any transfer of this Warrant and of rights hereunder, in whole or in part, shall be registered on the books of the Company to be maintained for such purpose, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company referred to in Section 2.1, together with a written assignment of this Warrant, duly executed by Holder, and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall, subject to Section 7, execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees and in the denomination specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be canceled. A Warrant, if properly assigned in compliance with Section 7, may be exercised by a new Holder for the purchase of shares of Common Stock without having a new Warrant issued.

3.2. Division and Combination. Subject to Section 7, this Warrant may be divided into multiple Warrants or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office or agency of the Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by Holder. Subject to compliance with Section 3.1 and with Section 7, as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice.

The number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable and the price at which such shares may be purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 4. The Company shall give Holder notice of any event described below that requires an adjustment pursuant to this Section 4 at the time of such event.

4.1. Stock Dividends, Subdivisions and Combinations. If at any time the Company shall:

(a) take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend payable in, or to receive any other distribution of, additional shares of Common Stock,

(b) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares of Common Stock, or

(c) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, then (i) the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after the occurrence of any such event shall be adjusted to equal the number of shares of Common Stock that a record holder of the same number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the occurrence of such event would own or be entitled to receive after the happening of such event; and (ii) the Current Warrant Price per share shall be adjusted to equal (A) the Current Warrant Price, multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the adjustment, divided by (B) the number of shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after such adjustment.

4.2. Reorganization, Reclassification, Merger, Consolidation or Disposition of Assets. In case the Company shall reorganize its capital, reclassify its capital stock, consolidate or merge with or into another Person (where the Company is not the surviving corporation or where there is a change in, or distribution with respect to, the Common Stock of the Company), or sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all its property, assets or business to another corporation and, pursuant to the terms of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation, or any cash, shares of stock or other securities or property of any nature whatsoever (including warrants or other subscription or purchase rights)

in addition to, or in lieu of, common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation (“Other Property”), are to be received by, or distributed to, the holders of Common Stock of the Company, then Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant and payment of the Current Warrant Price, the number of shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring Person or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and Other Property receivable upon or as a result of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such event. In case of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, the successor or acquiring corporation (if other than the Company) shall expressly assume the due and punctual observance and performance of each covenant and condition of this Warrant to be performed and observed by the Company and all the obligations and liabilities hereunder, subject to such modifications as may be deemed in good faith to be reasonably appropriate (as determined by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company) in order to provide for adjustments of shares of the Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable which shall be as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 4. For purposes of this Section 4.2, “common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation” shall include stock of such corporation of any class that is not preferred as to dividends or assets over any other class of stock of such corporation and that is not subject to redemption, and shall also include any evidences of indebtedness, shares of stock or other securities that are convertible into, or exchangeable for, any such stock, either immediately or upon the arrival of a specified date or the happening of a specified event, and any warrants or other rights to purchase or subscribe for any such stock. The foregoing provisions of this Section 4.2 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, mergers, consolidations or disposition of assets.

4.4. Distributions. Without duplication of any adjustment pursuant to Section 4.1 or 4.2 hereof, if, while this Warrant or any portion hereof remains outstanding and unexpired, the holders of shares of Common Stock shall have received, or, on or after the record date fixed for the determination of eligible stockholders, shall have become entitled to receive, without payment therefor, other or additional stock or other securities or property (including cash) of the Company by way of dividend or distribution, then, in each case, this Warrant shall represent the right to acquire upon exercise hereof, but solely with respect to any portion of this Warrant that remains unexercised and unexpired as of the record date of any such dividend or distribution, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock then receivable upon exercise of this Warrant, and without payment of any additional consideration therefor, the amount of such other or additional stock or other securities or property (including cash) that Holder would have received had it been the holder of record of the shares of Common Stock receivable as of such record date upon exercise of this Warrant and all other dividends and distributions receivable with respect to such additional stock or other securities or property after such record date and prior to the date of such exercise of this Warrant, giving effect to all adjustments called for during such period by the provisions of this Section 4.

5.1. No Impairment. The Company shall not by any action, including the amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or comparable governing instruments or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times, and in good faith, assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder against impairment.

Upon the request of Holder, the Company will, at any time during the period in which this Warrant is outstanding, acknowledge in writing, in form reasonably satisfactory to Holder, the continuing validity of this Warrant and the obligations of the Company hereunder.

From and after the Closing Date, the Company shall at all times reserve and keep available for issue upon the exercise of Warrants such number of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock as will be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of this Warrant. All shares of Common Stock that shall be so issuable, when issued upon exercise of any Warrant and payment is made therefor in accordance with the terms of such Warrant, shall be duly and validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable, and not subject to preemptive rights.

7.1. Legend Requirement. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 7, each Warrant and each certificate for Warrant Stock initially issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, and each certificate for Warrant Stock issued to any subsequent transferee of any such certificate, shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form.

With respect to any Warrant.

“This Warrant has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be transferred in violation of such Act or the rules and regulations thereunder.”

With respect to each certificate for Warrant Stock that has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933:

“The securities represented by this Certificate have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be transferred in violation of such Act and the rules or regulations thereunder.”

7.2. Termination of Legend Requirement. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7, the legend requirements of Section 7.1 shall terminate as to any share of Warrant Stock (i) when and so long as such security shall have been effectively registered under the Securities Act and disposed of pursuant thereto, or (ii) when the Company shall have received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such shares may be transferred without registration thereof under the Securities Act.

With a view to making available to Holder the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or any other similar or successor rule or regulation of the Commission that may at any time permit Holder to sell shares of Warrant Stock to the public without registration, the Company agrees, at all times when Holder may need to rely on Rule 144 to sell such securities to the public without registration, to furnish to Holder such information as Holder may reasonably request to permit Holder to sell shares of Warrant Stock without registration.
