3. EXERCISE OF WARRANT

     3.1 Exercise.

          Each Warrant shall initially entitle the Holder thereof to purchase shares of Common Stock at a per share exercise price equal to the Exercise Price (subject to adjustment as provided in Section 5), in each case as provided herein and all on the terms and conditions and pursuant to the provisions hereinafter set forth.

     3.2 Manner of Exercise.

          (a) From and after the Original Issue Date and until 5:00 P.M., New York, New York time, on the Expiration Date, a Holder of a Warrant may from time to time exercise such Warrant, on any Business Day, for all or any part of the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable thereunder. In order to exercise a Warrant, in whole or in part, the Holder shall (i) deliver to the Company at the Designated Office a written notice of the Holder’s election to exercise such Warrant (an “Exercise Notice”), which Exercise Notice shall be irrevocable (except as otherwise provided in Section 3.2(e)) and specify the number of shares of Common Stock being purchased, together with the Warrant, (ii) pay to the Company the Warrant Price (the date on which both such delivery and payment shall have first taken place being hereinafter sometimes referred to as the “Exercise Date”) and (iii) if such Holder has not already done so, become a party to each of the Shareholders Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement by completing and executing a signature page thereof. Such Exercise Notice shall be in the form of the subscription form appearing as Annex A to Exhibit A, duly executed by the Holder or its duly authorized agent or attorney.

          (b) Upon receipt of such Exercise Notice, Warrant and payment and any other materials required to be provided under Section 3.2(a), the Company shall, as promptly as practicable, and in any event within five (5) Business Days thereafter, execute (or cause to be executed) and deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing the aggregate number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise, together with either any fraction of a share or cash in lieu of any fraction of a share, as hereafter provided in Section 3.4. The stock certificate or certificates so delivered shall be, to the extent possible, in such denomination or denominations as the exercising Holder shall reasonably request in the Exercise Notice and shall be registered in the name of the Holder or the name of its nominee. A Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised and such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have been issued, and the Holder or any other Person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a Holder of record of such shares for all purposes, as of the Exercise Date.

          (c) Payment of the Warrant Price may be made by check payable to the order of the Company or, at the option of the Holder, by wire transfer of funds to an account designated by the Company for such purpose.

          (d) If a Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates representing the shares of Common Stock being issued, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the number of unexercised shares called for by such Warrant. Such new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with the original Warrant and subject to the terms of this Agreement.

          (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.2, a Holder (i) may expressly condition the effectiveness of any exercise of a Warrant upon the simultaneous closing of the sale, in an offering registered under the Securities Act or pursuant to the exercise of any drag-along or co-sale rights under the Shareholders Agreement, of the shares of Common Stock as to which the conditional exercise is being made and (ii) may revoke any such conditional exercise in the event that the closing of such sale shall not occur. In the event that such simultaneous exercise and sale shall occur, the Company shall cooperate with such Holder and any third parties involved in such sale to facilitate the issuance and sale of the shares of Common Stock involved.

     3.3 Payment of Charges.

          All shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of a Warrant pursuant to the terms hereof shall be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, issued without violation of any preemptive rights and free and clear of all Liens (other than, to the extent permitted by Section 9, any created by actions of the Holder). The Company shall pay all expenses in connection with the issue or delivery thereof, unless such charge is imposed by law upon the Holder, in which case such charge shall be paid by the Holder and the Company shall reimburse the Holder therefor.

     3.4 Fractional Shares.

          The Company shall not be required to issue a fractional share of Common Stock upon exercise of any Warrant. As to any fraction of a share that the Holder of one or more Warrants, the rights under which are exercised in the same transaction, would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall, at its option, issue upon exercise either (i) the fractional share of Common Stock to which the Holder of one or more Warrants would otherwise be entitled or (ii) a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to the same fraction of (A) the Current Market Price of one share of Common Stock on the Exercise Date, if the Common Stock is then publicly traded or (B) the Book Value per share of Common Stock based on the most recent available consolidated balance sheet of the Company, if the Common Stock is not then publicly traded.

4. TRANSFER, DIVISION AND COMBINATION

     4.1 Transfer.

          Subject to compliance with Section 9 and the Shareholders Agreement, each transfer of a Warrant and all 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 a Warrant at the Designated Office, together with a written assignment of such Warrant in the form of Annex B to Exhibit A hereto, duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. Upon such surrender and delivery, (i) the Company shall, subject to Section 9, execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees and in the denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of the original Warrant not so assigned and the original Warrant shall promptly be cancelled and (ii) if not already a party to the Shareholders Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, each assignee shall become a party to each of the Shareholders Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement by completing and executing a joinder agreement thereto. A Warrant, if properly assigned in compliance with Section 9 and the Shareholders Agreement, may be exercised by the new Holder for the purchase of shares of Common Stock without having a new Warrant issued.

     4.2 Division and Combination.

          Subject to compliance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement, a Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation thereof at the Designated Office, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement and the Shareholders Agreement 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.

     4.3 Expenses.

          (viii) shares of Common Stock issued or issuable (including Options to acquire such shares of Common Stock) to suppliers or third-party service providers in connection with the provision of goods or services pursuant to transactions in the ordinary course of business and approved by a majority of the Board, including at least one of the Investor Directors;

          (a) Issuance of Options. If the Company in any manner grants, issues or sells any Options (other than any Options permitted by Section 5.2(b)) and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such Options, or upon conversion or exchange of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of such Options, is less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the time of the granting, issuance or sale of such Options, then the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of the total maximum amount of such Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the granting, issuance or sale of such Options for such price per share. For purposes of this paragraph, the “price per share for which Common Stock is issuable” shall be determined by dividing (i) the sum of (1) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the granting, issuance or sale of such Options, plus (2) the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration payable to the Company upon exercise of all such Options, plus (3) in the case of such Options which relate to Convertible Securities, the minimum aggregate amount

of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange thereof, by (ii) the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options. No further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made when Convertible Securities are actually issued upon the exercise of such Options or when Common Stock actually issued upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.

          (b) Issuance of Convertible Securities. If the Company in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon conversion or exchange thereof is less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the time of such issuance or sale, then the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities 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 paragraph, the “price per share for which Common Stock is issuable” shall be determined by dividing (i) the sum of (1) the total amount received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities, plus (2) the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the conversion or exchange thereof, by (B) the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities. No further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made when Common Stock is actually issued upon the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, and if any such issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities is made upon exercise of any Options for which adjustments of the Exercise Price had been or are to be made pursuant to other provisions of this Section 5, no further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made by reason of such issue or sale.

          (c) Change in Option Price or Conversion Rate. If the purchase price provided for in any Options, the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the conversion or exchange of any Convertible Securities or the rate at which any Convertible Securities are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock changes at any time, the Exercise Price in effect at the time of such change shall be immediately adjusted to the Exercise Price that would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities still outstanding provided for such changed purchase price, additional consideration or conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold; provided that if such adjustment of the Exercise Price would result in an increase in the Exercise Price then in effect, the Company will promptly give all Holders written notice of such increase. For purposes of this subsection (c), if the terms of any Option or Convertible Security that was outstanding as of the Original Issue Date are changed in the manner described in the immediately preceding sentence, then such Option or Convertible Security and the Common Stock deemed issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of such change; provided that no such change shall at any time cause the Exercise Price hereunder to be increased.

          (d) Treatment of Expired Options and Unexercised Convertible Securities. Upon the expiration of any Option or the termination of any right to convert or exchange any Convertible Security without the exercise of any such Option or right, the Exercise Price then in

effect hereunder shall be adjusted immediately to the Exercise Price that would have been in effect at the time of such expiration or termination had such Option or Convertible Security, to the extent outstanding immediately prior to such expiration or termination, never been issued; provided that if such expiration or termination would result in an increase in the Exercise Price then in effect, the Company will promptly give all Holders of Warrants written notice of such increase. For purposes of this subsection (d), the expiration or termination of any Option or Convertible Security that was outstanding as of the Original Issue Date shall not cause the Exercise Price hereunder to be adjusted unless, and only to the extent that, a change in the terms of such Option or Convertible Security caused it to be deemed to have been issued after the Original Issue Date.

          (e) Calculation of Consideration Received. If any Common Stock, Option or Convertible Security is issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold for cash, the consideration received therefor shall be deemed to be the amount received by the Company therefor (net of discounts, commissions and related expenses). If any Common Stock, Option or Convertible Security is issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of the consideration other than cash received by the Company shall be the fair market value of such consideration as determined in good faith by the Board. If any Common Stock, Option or Convertible Security is issued to the owners of the non-surviving entity in connection with any merger in which the Company is the surviving corporation, the amount of consideration therefor shall 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 Common Stock, Option or Convertible Security, as the case may be. The fair value of any consideration other than cash and securities shall be the fair market value as determined in good faith by the Board.

          (f) Integrated Transactions. In case any Option is issued in connection with the issuance or sale of other securities of the Company, together comprising one integrated transaction in which no specific exercise price is allocated to such Option by the parties thereto, the Option shall be deemed to have been issued at an exercise price of $0.01.

          (g) Treasury Shares. The number of shares of Common Stock Outstanding at any given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company, and the disposition of any shares so owned or held shall be considered an issuance or sale of such shares.

          (h) Record Date. If the Company takes a record of the holders of Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (i) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Common Stock, Options or in Convertible Securities or (ii) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, then such record date shall 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 upon the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may be.

          (i) Subdivisions or Combinations of Common Stock. If the Company at any time subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be reduced proportionately, and if the

Company at any time combines (by reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be increased proportionately.

          (j) Recapitalization, Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale. Any recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or other transaction, in each case which is effected in such a manner that the holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive (either directly or upon subsequent liquidation) stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock, is referred to herein as an “Organic Change.” Prior to the consummation of any Organic Change, the Company shall make appropriate provisions (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Majority Warrant Holders) to insure that each of the Holders shall thereafter have the right to acquire and receive, in lieu of or in addition to (as the case may be) the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon the exercise of such Holder’s Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or assets as such Holder would have received in connection with such Organic Change if such Holder had exercised its Warrant immediately prior to such Organic Change. In each such case, the Company shall also make appropriate provisions (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Majority Warrant Holders) to insure that the provisions of this Section 5 shall thereafter be applicable to the securities issued upon exercise of the Warrants (including, in the case of any such consolidation, merger or sale in which the successor entity or purchasing entity is other than the Company and the value for the Common Stock reflected by the terms of such consolidation, merger or sale is less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such consolidation, merger or sale, an immediate adjustment of the Exercise Price to the value for the Common Stock so reflected and a corresponding immediate adjustment in the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon the exercise of the Warrants). The Company shall not effect any such Organic Change, unless prior to the consummation thereof, the successor entity (if other than the Company) resulting from consolidation or merger or the entity purchasing such assets assumes by written instrument (in form and substance satisfactory to the Majority Warrant Holders) the obligation to deliver to each such Holder such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such holder may be entitled to acquire.

          (k) Certain Other Events. If any event occurs of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 5 but not expressly provided for by such provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features), then the Board shall make an appropriate adjustment in the Exercise Price so as to protect the rights of the Holders of Warrants; provided that no such adjustment shall increase the Exercise Price as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 5 or decrease the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of each Warrant.

     5.4 Notices.

          Immediately upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price, the Company shall give written notice thereof to all Holders, setting forth in reasonable detail and certifying the calculation of such adjustment.

6. NO IMPAIRMENT

          The Company shall not by any action, including amending its charter documents or through any reorganization, reclassification, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other similar voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Agreement, but will at all times 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 the Holder of any Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company shall take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of the Warrants, free and clear of all Liens (other than, to the extent permitted by Section 9, any created by actions of the Holder), and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

7. RESERVATION AND AUTHORIZATION OF COMMON STOCK; REGISTRATION WITH OR APPROVAL OF ANY GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITY

          From and after the Original Issue Date, the Company shall at all times reserve and keep available for issuance upon the exercise of the Warrants such number of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock as will be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Warrants. All shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms hereof, when issued upon exercise of Warrants with payment therefor in accordance with the terms hereof, shall be duly and validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable, not subject to preemptive rights and shall be free and clear of all Liens (other than, to the extent permitted by Section 9, any created by actions of the Holder). Before taking any action that would result in an adjustment in the number of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrants are exercisable, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction over such action. If any shares of Common Stock required to be reserved for issuance upon exercise of Warrants require registration or qualification with any governmental authority under any federal or state law (other than under the Securities Act or any state securities law) before such shares may be so issued, the Company will in good faith and as expeditiously as possible and at its expense endeavor to cause such shares to be duly registered.

8. NOTICE OF CORPORATE ACTIONS; TAKING OF RECORD; TRANSFER BOOKS

     8.1 Notices of Corporate Actions.

          In the event of: (a) any taking by the Company of a record of the holders of any class of securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend or distribution, (other than cash dividends payable upon shares of Preferred Stock of the Company), or any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of capital stock of any class or any other securities, (b) any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company or any consolidation or merger involving the Company and any other Person or any transfer or other disposition of all

or substantially all the assets of the Company to another Person, (c) any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company, (d) any amendment of the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company or (e) any registration or public offering of Common Stock, the Company shall mail to each Holder of a Warrant in accordance with the provisions of Section 14.2 a notice specifying (i) in the case of a dividend or distribution, the date or expected date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right, (ii) in the case of a reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, consolidation, merger, transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, the date or expected date on which any such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, consolidation, merger, transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is to take place, the time, if any such time is to be fixed, as of which the holders of record of Common Stock shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock for the shares of stock, securities or assets deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, consolidation, merger, transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up and a description in reasonable detail of the transaction and (iii) in case of an amendment of the Certificate of Incorporation or any registration or public offering of Common Stock, the expected date of such event and a description in reasonable detail of the event. Such notice shall be mailed to the extent practicable at least thirty (30), but not more than ninety (90) days prior to the date therein specified. In the event that the Company at any time sends any other notice to the holders of its Common Stock, it shall concurrently send a copy of such notice to each Holder of a Warrant.

     8.2 Taking of Record.

          In the case of all dividends or other distributions by the Company to the holders of its Common Stock with respect to which any provision of any Section hereof refers to the taking of a record of such holders, the Company will in each such case take such a record and will take such record as of the close of business on a Business Day.

     8.3 Closing of Transfer Books.

          The Company shall not at any time, except upon dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company, close its stock transfer books or Warrant transfer books so as to result in preventing or delaying the exercise or transfer of any Warrant.

9. TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS; LEGENDS

     9.1 Restrictions on Transfer and Entry into Shareholders Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement.

          Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, each Holder of an Original Warrant is entering into and becoming a party to each of the Shareholders Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, if not already a party thereto, by completing and executing a signature page thereof. The Company shall not be obligated to register any transfer of Warrants and no such purported transfer shall be effective unless and until the transferee has executed and delivered a joinder agreement pursuant to which such assignee becomes a party to the Shareholders Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement.

     9.2 Legends.

          (a) Each Warrant Certificate shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:

          (i) “NEITHER THE WARRANTS REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR ANY OF THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE THEREOF HAVE BEEN REGISTERED PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND NEITHER THE WARRANTS REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR ANY OF THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE THEREOF MAY BE TRANSFERRED, SOLD, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNLESS SUCH DISPOSITION IS PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR IS MADE IN A TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM SUCH REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS.”

          (ii) “THE WARRANTS REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF AN AMENDED AND RESTATED WARRANT AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF AUGUST 27, 2009, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY.”

          (iii) “THE TRANSFER, SALE, ASSIGNMENT, PLEDGE OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE IS RESTRICTED BY AND SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS SPECIFIED IN THAT CERTAIN SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED SECURITYHOLDERS’ AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF AUGUST 27, 2009, AS AMENDED AND MODIFIED FROM TIME TO TIME, AMONG XSTREAM SYSTEMS, INC. (THE “COMPANY”) AND CERTAIN SECURITYHOLDERS, AND THE COMPANY RESERVES THE RIGHT TO REFUSE THE TRANSFER OF SUCH SECURITIES UNTIL SUCH CONDITIONS HAVE BEEN FULFILLED WITH RESPECT TO SUCH TRANSFER. A COPY OF SUCH SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED SECURITYHOLDERS’ AGREEMENT SHALL BE FURNISHED BY THE COMPANY TO THE HOLDER HEREOF UPON WRITTEN REQUEST AND WITHOUT CHARGE.”

          (b) Each certificate for shares of Warrant Stock shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:

          (i) “THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED, SOLD, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNLESS SUCH DISPOSITION IS PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE

A COPY OF SUCH SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED SECURITYHOLDERS’ AGREEMENT SHALL BE FURNISHED BY THE COMPANY TO THE HOLDER HEREOF UPON WRITTEN REQUEST AND WITHOUT CHARGE.”

          (c) In addition, Warrant Certificates and any certificates for shares of Warrant Stock shall bear any legends required by applicable state law. When any Warrants or shares of Warrant Stock have been registered under the Securities Act, and such Warrants or shares of Warrant Stock have been sold pursuant to such registration or pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or are eligible to be sold pursuant to paragraph (k) of such Rule, the Holder of such Warrants or shares of Warrant Stock shall be entitled to exchange, as the case may be, the Warrant Certificate representing such Warrants for a Warrant Certificate, or a certificate representing such shares of Warrant Stock for a new certificate, in each case not bearing the legend required by clause (a)(i) or (b)(i), as the case may be, of this Section 9. If any Warrants or shares of Warrant Stock cease to be subject to this Agreement or the Shareholders Agreement, as the case may be, the Holder of such Warrants or Warrant Stock shall be entitled to exchange, as the case may be, the Warrant Certificate representing such Warrants for a Warrant Certificate, or a certificate representing such shares of Warrant Stock for a new certificate, in each case not bearing the legend required by clauses (a)(ii), (a)(iii) or (b)(ii), as the case may be, of this Section 9. Each Holder agrees that, in addition to complying with the restrictions on transfer set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, such Holder will not directly or indirectly Transfer any Warrants (or solicit any offers to buy, purchase or otherwise acquire or take a pledge of any Warrants) in violation of the Securities Act, applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws or any rules or regulations thereunder, and such Holder will not Transfer any Warrants unless the conditions set forth in the legend required by clause (a)(i) of this Section 9 are satisfied.

10. LOSS OR MUTILATION

     Upon receipt by the Company from any Holder of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of a Warrant Certificate and an indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it (it being understood that the written indemnification agreement of or affidavit of loss of a Holder of an Original Warrant shall be a sufficient indemnity) and, in case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation hereof, the Company will execute and deliver in lieu hereof a new Warrant of like tenor to such Holder; provided, however,

in the case of mutilation, no indemnity shall be required if a Warrant Certificate in identifiable form is surrendered to the Company for cancellation.

11. OFFICE OF THE COMPANY

     As long as any of the Warrants remain outstanding, the Company shall maintain an office or agency, which may be the principal executive offices of the Company (the “Designated Office”), where the Warrants may be presented for exercise, registration of transfer, division or combination as provided in this Agreement. Such Designated Office shall initially be the office of the Company at 10305 102^nd Terrace, Suite 101, Sebastian, Florida 32958. The Company may from time to time change the Designated Office to another office of the Company or its agent within the United States by notice given to all registered Holders of Warrants at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the effective date of such change.

provided that any Holder shall be entitled to provide notice to the Company that it elects not to receive copies of the financial statements and other documentation referred to in this Section 12.1(a); and provided, further, that the Company shall be entitled to satisfy its obligations under this Section 12.1(a) through electronic delivery of the financial statements and other documentation referred to in this Section 12.1(a) or by making such information available through a password-protected website.

     12.2 Financial Statements.

13. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

     13.2 Company.

          The Company has full legal right, power and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement and to issue the Warrants and to perform all its obligations relating thereto. The execution and delivery of this Agreement, the issuance of the Warrants by the Company and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have all been duly authorized by the Board of the Company and, where required, the stockholders of the Company. No consent, waiver or authorization of, or filing with any other Person is required in connection with any of the foregoing or with the validity or enforceability against the Company of this Agreement or the Warrants. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Warrants and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby do not and will not, with or without the passage of time or the giving of notice or both, (i) violate any provision of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws or (ii) violate any requirement of law or any material agreement to which the Company is a party. The Warrants have been duly executed and delivered by the Company, have been duly authorized and validly issued free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, equities and claims, are fully paid and non-assessable, and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity.

14. MISCELLANEOUS

     14.1 Nonwaiver.

          No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of the Company or the Holders shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the rights, powers or remedies of such Person.

     14.2 Notice Generally.

          Any notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration, delivery or communication hereunder to be made pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement shall be sufficiently given or made if in writing and either delivered in person with receipt acknowledged or sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed as follows:

          (i) if to any Holder of Warrants, at its last known address appearing on the books of the Company maintained for such purpose;

          (ii) if to the Company, at its Designated Office;

or at such other address as may be substituted by notice given as herein provided. The giving of any notice required hereunder may be waived in writing by the party entitled to receive such notice. Every notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration, delivery or other

The Company shall indemnify, save and hold harmless the Holders from and against any and all liability, loss, cost, damage, reasonable attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and expenses, court costs and all other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with or arising from a Company Default. This indemnification provision shall be in addition to the rights of such Holder or Holders to bring an action against the Company for breach of contract based on such Company Default.

     14.4 Limitation of Liability; No Stockholder Rights.

          No provision hereof, in the absence of affirmative action by the Holder to purchase shares of Common Stock, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holders, shall give rise to any liability or right of any such Holder to pay the Exercise Price for any Warrant Stock or any liability or rights as a stockholder of the Company, in each case other than pursuant to an exercise of a Warrant and in each case whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

     14.5 Remedies.

          Each Holder of Warrants, in addition to being entitled to exercise its rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, shall be entitled to specific performance of its rights provided under this Agreement. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Agreement, and hereby agrees, in an action for specific performance, to waive the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

     14.6 Successors and Assigns.

          Subject to the provisions of Sections 4.1 and 9, this Agreement and the rights evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors of the Company and the permitted successors and assigns of the Holders. The provisions of this Agreement are intended to be for the benefit of all Holders from time to time of Warrants, and shall be enforceable by any such Holder and, as provided in Section 4.1, such Holder’s permitted assigns.

     14.7 Amendment.

          This Agreement and the Warrants may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company and the Majority Warrant Holders, provided, however, that no such modification or amendment that would treat any Holder in a discriminatory manner may be made without the prior written consent of such Holder.

     14.8 Severability.

          Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.
