SECURITY AND ISSUER. This report relates to the common stock ("Common Stock"), par value $0.001 per share, of BestNet Communications Corp., formerly known as Wavetech International, Inc. (the "Issuer"). The Issuer's principal executive offices are located at 5075 E. Cascade Road SE, Suite K, Grand Rapids, MI 49546. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND. This statement is being filed by Softalk Inc. ("Softalk") and Mr. Alexander Christopher Lang ("Lang"), the President and a director of Softalk. Softalk and Lang are sometimes hereinafter referred to as the "Reporting Persons." Ms. Rosnani Atan ("Atan") is the Chief Executive Officer and a director of Softalk. The address of the principal business office of Softalk, Lang and Atan is: 370 Queen Quay West, Suite 301, Toronto, Ontario M5V 3J3, Canada. The principal business of Softalk is the development and distribution of communications controls technologies. The principal business of both Lang and Atan is their activities on behalf of Softalk. Lang owns 91% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Softalk. Lang is a natural person and a citizen of Canada. Atan is a natural person and a citizen of Singapore. Softalk is a corporation organized under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada. During the last five years, neither Softalk, Lang nor Atan (i) has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors), or (ii) has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding, been or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION. On July 19, 1999, the Issuer granted to Lang an option to purchase up to 250,000 shares of the Common Stock at a price of $.625 per share (the "Director Option"). The Director Option is exercisable for so long as Lang provides services to the Issuer; however, the Director Option expires in any event on July 19, 2009. The Director Option was granted to Lang in consideration for services to be provided as a director of the Issuer. The issuance of the Director Option, which was exercisable immediately in full, resulted in Mr. Lang becoming the beneficial owner, pursuant to Rule 13d-3, of approximately 6.8% of the Common Stock outstanding at the time. On October 25, 1999, the Issuer entered into a Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with Softalk and Interpretel (Canada), Inc., a subsidiary of the Issuer ("Interpretel"), pursuant to which (i) the Issuer and/or Interpretel acquired certain assets of Softalk and (ii) Interpretel agreed to issue 4,329,004 shares of Interpretel's Class A Non-Voting Preferred Stock (the "Class A Preferred Stock") to Softalk. The shares of the Class A Preferred Stock held by Softalk were exchangeable at the election of Softalk into shares of the Common Stock on a one-for-one basis pursuant to an Exchange Agreement among the Issuer, Softalk and Interpretel. Softalk elected to exchange its shares of Class A Preferred Stock for shares of the Common Stock on November 11, 2000. On October 25, 1999, the Company and Softalk amended and restated their existing license agreement (the "Amended and Restated License Agreement"). Pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated CUSIP No.08659K107 SCHEDULE 13D Page 5 of 10 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- License Agreement, Softalk agreed to grant to the Issuer and its subsidiaries certain rights with respect to Softalk's developed or acquired services and products to individual customer accounts. In exchange for agreeing to the amendments to the License Agreement, the Issuer agreed to issue to Softalk five-year warrants to purchase up to 5,246,753 shares of Common Stock (the "Warrants"), 3,246,753 of which have an exercise price of $3.25 per share, 1,000,000 of which have an exercise price of $5.00 per share, and the remaining 1,000,000 of which have an exercise price of $10.00 per share. The Warrants were issued on November 1, 1999 and are exercisable at any time. On January 1, 2001, the Issuer granted to Softalk an option to purchase 500,000 shares of the Common Stock at a purchase price of $.6875 per share (the "Softalk Option"). The Softalk Option was issued to Softalk in consideration of services valued at $185,000 provided to the Issuer by Softalk. The Softalk Option vests in three installments of 200,000 shares, 200,000 shares and 100,000 shares annually on January 11, 2002, 2003 and 2004, respectively. Pursuant to Rule 13d-3, on November 12, 2001 (60 days prior to January 11, 2002), Softalk and Lang became the beneficial owners of the first installment of 200,000 shares. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION. The Director Option was granted to Lang in consideration for services to be provided as a director of the Issuer. Softalk acquired the Class A Preferred Stock as consideration for the sale of certain of its assets pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. Softalk acquired the Warrants as consideration for granting certain rights pursuant to the Amended and Restated License Agreement. Softalk acquired the Softalk Option as consideration for services provided to the Issuer by Softalk. Except for (i) periodic dispositions of the Common Stock by Softalk in the open market in compliance with and as permitted by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and (ii) the effect, if any, of the pending arbitration proceedings between Softalk and the Issuer with respect to certain intellectual property rights and other issues, at this time neither Lang, Softalk nor Atan has any plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the events listed in any of the following: (a) The acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Issuer, or the disposition of securities of the Issuer; (b) An extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (c) A sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or of any of its subsidiaries; (d) Any change in the present board of directors or management of the Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board; (e) Any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer; CUSIP No.08659K107 SCHEDULE 13D Page 6 of 10 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (f) Any other material change in the Issuer's business or corporate structure, including but not limited to, if the Issuer is a registered closed-end investment company, any plans or proposals to make any changes in its investment policy for which a vote is required by Section 13 of the Investment Company Act of 1940; (g) Changes in the Issuer's charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person; (h) Causing a class of securities of the Issuer to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association; (i) A class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act; or (j) Any action similar to any of those enumerated above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Reporting Persons and the executive officers and directors of Softalk intend to continually review the Issuer's business affairs and financial condition and reserve the right to attempt to effect any such transactions in the future. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ITEM 5.

EX-5 3 w64998exv5.txt OPTION TO PURCHASE 250,000 SHARES - JULY 19, 1999 EXHIBIT 5 NON-STATUTORY STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT BY THIS STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT ("Agreement") made and entered into this 19th day of July, 1999 ("Grant Date"), WAVETECH INTERNATIONAL, INC., a Nevada corporation (the "Company"), and A. Christopher Lang, an independent member of the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Optionee") hereby state, confirm, represent, warrant and agree as follows: I RECITALS I.1 The Company, through its Board of Directors (the "Board"), has determined that in order to attract and retain the best available personnel for positions of substantial responsibility to provide successful management of the Company's business, it must offer a compensation package that provides employees and key consultants of the Company a chance to participate financially in the success of the Company by developing an equity interest in it. I.2 As part of the compensation package, the Company had adopted the Wavetech International, Inc. 1997 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan") pursuant to resolution of the Board, effective January 31, 1997. I.3 By this Agreement, the Company and the Optionee desire to establish the terms upon which the Company is willing to grant to the Optionee, and upon which the Optionee is willing to accept from the Company an option to purchase shares of the Company's $.001 par value common stock. II AGREEMENTS II.1 Grant of Non-Statutory Stock Option. Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth and those provisions set forth and those contained in the Plan, the Company grants to the Optionee the right and option (the "Option") to purchase from the Company all or any part of an aggregate number of two hundred fifty thousand (250,000) shares of the Company's $.001 par value Common Stock (the "Common Stock"), authorized but unissued or, at the option of the Company, treasury stock if available (the "Optioned Shares"). II.2 Exercise of Option. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and those of the Plan, the Option may be exercised only by completing and signing a written notice in substantially the following form: I hereby exercise the Option granted to me by Wavetech International, Inc. and elect to purchase __________ shares of $.001 par value Common Stock of -1- Wavetech International, Inc. for the purchase price to be determined under Paragraph 2.3 of this Stock Option Agreement. II.3 Purchase Price. The price to be paid for the Optioned Shares (the "Purchase Price") shall be $0.625 per share. II.4 Payment of Purchase Price. Payment of the Purchase Price may be made as follows: (a) In United States dollars in cash or by check, bank draft or money order payable to the Company, or (b) At the discretion of the Board, through the delivery of shares of Common Stock with an aggregate fair market value at the date of such delivery, equal to the Purchase Price, or (c) By a combination of both (a) and (b) above, or (d) Pursuant to financial assistance which may be provided by the Company upon Board approval as set forth in Section 8(b) of the Plan. The Board shall determine acceptable methods for rendering Common Stock as payment upon exercise of an option and may impose such limitations and conditions on the use of Company Stock to exercise an Option as it deems appropriate. At the irrevocable election of the Optionee pursuant to Section 21 of the Plan, and subject to the acceptance of such election by the Board, to satisfy the Company's withholding obligations, it may retain such number of shares of Common Stock subject to the exercised Option which have an aggregate Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan) on the date of exercise equal to the Company's aggregate federal, state, local and foreign tax withholding and FICA and FUTA obligations with respect to income generated by the exercise of the Option by Optionee. II.5 Exercisability of Option. Subject to the provisions of Paragraph 2.6, and except as otherwise provided in Paragraphs 2.8 and 2.9, the Option may be exercised by the Optionee while providing services to the Company which shall include any parent ("Parent") or subsidiary ("Subsidiary") corporation of the Company as defined in Sections 425(e) and (f), respectively, of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("Code"), in whole or in part from time to time, after July 19, 2000. An option may not be exercised for a fraction of a share. II.6 Termination of Option. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Option, to the extent not heretofore exercised, shall terminate upon July 19, 2009. II.7 Adjustments. In the event of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock divided, combination or reclassification of shares of Common Stock or any other increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock, the number and kind of Optioned Shares (including any Option outstanding after termination of employment or death) and the Purchase Price per share shall be proportionately and appropriately adjusted without any change in the aggregate Purchase Price to be paid therefor upon exercise of the Option. The determination by the Board as to the terms of any of the foregoing adjustments shall be conclusive and binding. -2- II.8 Liquidation, Sale of Assets or Merger. In the event of a proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Option will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action, unless otherwise provided by the Board. In the event of a proposed sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or the merger of the Company with or into another corporation, the option shall be assumed or an equivalent option shall be substituted by such successor corporation, unless the Board determines that the Optionee shall have the right to exercise the Option as to all of the Common Stock subject to the Option. If the Board makes an Option fully exercisable, the Board shall notify the Optionee that the Option shall be fully exercisable for a period of thirty (30) days from the date of such notice (but not later than the expiration of the Option term under Paragraph 2.6), and the Option will terminate upon the expiration of such period. In the event the thirtieth (30th) day referred to in this Paragraph shall fall on a day that is not a business day, then the thirtieth (30th) day shall be the next following business day. II.9 Corporate Transaction or Change of Control. The Board shall have the right in its sole discretion to accelerate the schedule for vesting with respect to the Option granted hereby in the event of a Corporate Transaction or Change of Control. II.10 Notices.

Notice to be given to the Optionee shall be addressed to him or her at his or her then current residential address as appearing on the payroll records. Notice shall be deemed duly given when enclosed in a properly sealed envelope and deposited by certified mail, return receipt requested, in a post office or branch post office regularly maintained by the United States Government. II.11 Transferability of Option. The Option shall not be transferable by the Optionee otherwise than by the will or the laws of descent and distribution, and may be exercised during the life of the Optionee only by the Optionee. II.12 Optionee Not A Shareholder.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, this Warrant may be exercised by the holder hereof then registered on the books of the Company, in whole or in part, at any time on any Business Day on or after the opening of business on the date hereof and prior to 11:59 P.M. Eastern Time on the Expiration Date by (i) delivery of a written notice, in the form of the subscription notice attached as Exhibit A hereto (the "Exercise Notice"), of such holder's election to exercise this Warrant, which notice shall specify the number of Warrant Shares to be purchased; (ii) (A) payment to the Company of an amount equal to the Warrant Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised (the "Aggregate Exercise Price") in cash, certified or bank funds or wire transfer of immediately available funds or (B) notifying the Company that this Warrant is being exercised pursuant to a Cashless Exercise (as defined in Section 2(e)); and (iii) the surrender of this Warrant (or a Lost Warrant Affidavit in substantially the form annexed hereto as Exhibit C with respect to this Warrant in the case of its loss, theft or destruction) to a common carrier for overnight delivery to the Company; provided, that if such Warrant Shares are to be issued in any name other than that of the registered holder of this Warrant, such issuance shall be deemed a transfer and the provisions of Section 8 shall be applicable. In the event of any exercise of the rights represented - 3 - by this Warrant in compliance with this Section 2(a), the Company shall on the second Business Day following the date of receipt of the Exercise Notice, the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise) and this Warrant (or a Lost Warrant Affidavit in substantially the form annexed hereto as Exhibit C with respect to this Warrant in the case of its loss, theft or destruction) (the "Exercise Delivery Documents"), credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the holder (or its designee) shall be entitled to the holder's (or its designee's) balance account with The Depository Trust Company; provided, however, if the holder who submitted the Exercise Notice requested physical delivery of any or all of the Warrant Shares, then the Company shall, on or before the second Business Day following receipt of the Exercise Delivery Documents issue and surrender to a common carrier for overnight delivery to the address specified in the Exercise Notice, a certificate, registered in the name of the holder (or its designee), for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the holder (or its designee) shall be entitled. Upon delivery of the Exercise Notice and Aggregate Exercise Price referred to above or notification to the Company of a Cashless Exercise referred to in Section 2(e), the holder of this Warrant (or its designee) shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of this Warrant as required by clause (iii) above or the certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Warrant Exercise Price or the Market Price of a security or the arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall promptly issue to the holder (or its designee) the number of shares of Common Stock that is not disputed and shall submit the disputed determinations or arithmetic calculations to the holder via facsimile within one Business Day of receipt of the holder's Exercise Notice. If the holder and the Company are unable to agree upon the determination of the Warrant Exercise Price or the Market Price or arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares within one day of such disputed determination or arithmetic calculation being submitted to the holder, then the Company shall immediately submit via facsimile (i) the disputed determination of the Warrant Exercise Price or the Market Price to an independent, reputable investment banking firm of nationally recognized standing, mutually acceptable to both the Company and the holder or (ii) the disputed arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares to an independent, outside accountant, mutually acceptable to both the Company and the holder. The Company shall cause the investment banking firm or the accountant, as the case may be, to perform the determinations or calculations and notify the Company and the holder of the results no later than forty-eight (48) hours from the time it receives the disputed determinations or calculations. Such investment banking firm's or accountant's determination or calculation, as the case may be, shall be deemed conclusive absent manifest error. (b) Unless the rights represented by this Warrant shall have expired or shall have been fully exercised, the Company shall, as soon as practicable and in no event later than two (2) Business Days after delivery of the Exercise Delivery Documents and at its own expense, issue a new Warrant identical in all respects to this Warrant exercised except it shall represent rights to purchase the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant exercised, less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which such Warrant is exercised. (c) No fractional shares of Common Stock are to be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but rather the number of shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number. - 4 - (d) If, despite the Company's obligations under the Agreement, the Warrant Shares to be issued are not registered and available for resale pursuant to a registration statement in accordance with the Agreement, then notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the holder of this Warrant may, at its election exercised in its sole discretion, exercise this Warrant in whole or in part and, in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company upon such exercise in payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price, elect instead to receive upon such exercise the "Net Number" of shares of Common Stock determined according to the following formula (a "Cashless Exercise"): Net Number = (A x B)- (A x C) ----------------------------- B For purposes of the foregoing formula: A = the total number of shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised. B = the Market Price as of the date of the Exercise Notice. C = the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Shares at the time of such exercise. 3. (a) Adjustment for Dividends in Other Stock and Property; Reclassifications. In case at any time or from time to time the holders of the Common Stock (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall have received, or, on or after the record date fixed for the determination of eligible shareholders, shall have become entitled to receive, without payment therefor, (1) other or additional stock or other securities or property (other than cash) by way of dividend, (2) any cash or other property paid or payable out of any source other than retained earnings (determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles), or (3) other or additional stock or other securities or property (including cash) by way of stock-split, spin-off, reclassification, combination of shares or similar corporate rearrangement, (other than (x) shares of Common Stock or any other stock or securities into which such Common Stock shall have been exchanged, or (y) any other stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for such Common Stock or such other stock or securities), then and in each such case a holder, upon the exercise hereof as provided in Section 2, shall be entitled to receive the amount of stock and other securities and property (including cash in the cases referred to in clauses (2) and (3) above) which such holder would hold on the date of such exercise if on the Issuance Date such holder had been the holder of record of the number of shares of Common Stock called for on the face of this Warrant, and had thereafter, during the period from the Issuance Date to and including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and/or all other or - 5 - additional stock and other securities and property (including cash in the cases referred to in clause (2) and (3) above) receivable by it as aforesaid during such period, giving effect to all adjustments called for during such period by Sections 3(a) and 3(b). (b) Adjustment for Reorganization Consolidation and Merger. In case of any reorganization of the Company (or any other corporation the stock or other securities of which are at the time receivable on the exercise of this Warrant) or reclassification of its securities after the Issuance Date, or the Company (or any such other corporation) shall consolidate with or merge into another corporation or entity or convey or exchange all or substantially all its assets to another corporation or entity, then and in each such case the holder of this Warrant, upon the exercise hereof as provided in Section 2 at any time after the consummation of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, conveyance or exchange, 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 such holder would have been entitled upon such consummation if such holder had exercised this Warrant immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment as provided in Sections 3(a), (b), (c) and (d); 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 such consummation. (c) Adjustment for Certain Dividends and Distributions. If the Company at any time or from time to time makes, or fixes a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of (x) Common Stock or any other stock or securities into which such Common Stock shall have been exchanged, or (y) any other stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for such Common Stock or such other stock or securities, then and in each such event (1) the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect shall be decreased as of the time of the issuance of such additional shares or, in the event such record date is fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect by a fraction (A) the numerator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date, and (B) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date as the case may be, plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution; provided, however, that if such record date is fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, the Warrant Exercise Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date, and thereafter the Warrant Exercise Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this Section 3(c) as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions; and (2) the number of shares of Common Stock theretofore receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be increased, as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such record date is fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, in inverse proportion to the decrease in the Warrant Exercise Price. - 6 - (d) Stock Split and Reverse Stock Split. If the Company at any time or from time to time effects a stock split or subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock, the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect immediately before that stock split or subdivision shall be proportionately decreased and the number of shares of Common Stock theretofore receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased. If the Company at any time or from time to time effects a reverse stock split or combines the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares; the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect immediately before that reverse stock split or combination shall be proportionately increased and the number of shares of Common Stock theretofore receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately decreased. Each adjustment under this Section 3(d) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the stock split, subdivision, reverse stock split or combination becomes effective. 4. Redemption at the Company's Election. The Company, upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice to the holder, may elect to redeem all or part of this Warrant at a price equal to $0.01 per Warrant Share issuable upon the exercise hereof, if, but only if the Closing Bid Price shall have exceeded $20.00 per share (as equitably adjusted to reflect any merger, consolidation or reorganization of the Company or any stock split, subdivision, reverse stock split or combination effected by the Company) on each of the twenty (20) consecutive trading days ending not more than one Business Day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption shall be delivered to the holder. Any such redemption shall be effective on the thirtieth day following the delivery of such notice, provided, however, that the holder may elect at any time prior to the effective date of redemption to exercise all or any portion of this Warrant in accordance with the terms hereof. The redemption price shall be payable in full, in cash, on the effective date of any redemption pursuant to this paragraph (4). A redemption notice delivered by the Company pursuant to this paragraph (4) shall be irrevocable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company's right to redeem all or part of this Warrant may not be exercised if on the date on which the Company delivers notice of such exercise the Market Price shall be less than $12.00 per share (as equitably adjusted to reflect any merger, consolidation or reorganization of the Company or any stock split, subdivision, reverse stock split or combination effected by the Company). 5. Covenants as to Common Stock. The Company hereby covenants and agrees as follows: (a) This Warrant is, and any Warrants issued in substitution for or replacement of this Warrant will upon issuance be, duly authorized and validly issued. (b) All Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof. (c) During the period within which the rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will at all times have authorized and reserved at least 100% of the number of shares of Common Stock needed to provide for the exercise of the rights then represented by this Warrant and the par value of said shares will at all times be less than or equal to the applicable Warrant Exercise Price. - 7 - (d) The Company shall secure the listing of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant upon each national securities exchange or automated quotation system, if any, upon which shares of Common Stock are then listed within the time required by such exchange or quotation system's rules and regulations and shall maintain so long as any other shares of Common Stock shall be so listed, such listing of all shares of Common Stock from time to time issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant; and the Company shall so list on each national securities exchange or automated quotation system within the time required by such exchange or quotation system's rules and regulations, as the case may be, and shall maintain such listing of, any other shares of capital stock of the Company issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant if and so long as any shares of the same class shall be listed on such national securities exchange or automated quotation system. (e) The Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation 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 to be observed or performed by it hereunder, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant and in the taking of all such action as may reasonably be requested by the holder of this Warrant in order to protect the exercise privilege of the holder of this Warrant against dilution or other impairment, consistent with the tenor and purpose of this Warrant. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) will not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect, and (ii) will take all such actions 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 this Warrant. (f) This Warrant will be binding upon any entity succeeding to the Company by merger, consolidation or acquisition of all or substantially all of the Company's assets and any such successive mergers, consolidations or acquisitions. 6. Taxes. The Company shall pay any and all taxes which may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue or delivery of Common Stock or other securities or property in a name other than that of the registered holders of this Warrant to be converted and such holder shall pay such amount, if any, to cover any applicable transfer or similar tax. 7. Warrant Holder Not Deemed a Stockholder. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, no holder of this Warrant, solely by virtue of such holding, shall be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of shares of the Company for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be construed to confer upon the holder hereof, as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether a reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification of stock, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice of meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, prior to the issuance to the holder of this Warrant of the Warrant Shares which he or she is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant. In addition, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on - 8 - such holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise of this Warrant or otherwise) or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company. Notwithstanding this Section 6, the Company will provide the holder of this Warrant with copies of the same notices and other information given to the stockholders of the Company generally, contemporaneously with the giving thereof to the stockholders. 8. Representations of Holder.

The Company may treat the person in whose name any Warrant is registered on the register as the owner and holder thereof for all purposes, but in all events recognizing any transfers made in accordance with the terms of this Warrant.

Whenever the context so requires, the neuter gender includes the masculine or feminine, and the singular number includes the plural, and vice versa. 2. Exercise of Warrant. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, this Warrant may be exercised by the holder hereof then registered on the books of the Company, in whole or in part, at any time on any Business Day on or after the opening of business on the date hereof and prior to 11:59 P.M. Eastern Time on the Expiration Date by (i) delivery of a written notice, in the form of the subscription notice attached as Exhibit A hereto (the "Exercise Notice"), of such holder's election to exercise this Warrant, which notice shall specify the number of Warrant Shares to be purchased; (ii) (A) payment to the Company of an amount equal to the Warrant Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised (the "Aggregate Exercise Price") in cash, certified or bank funds or wire transfer of immediately available funds or (B) notifying the Company that this Warrant is being exercised pursuant to a Cashless Exercise (as defined in Section 2(e)); and (iii) the surrender of this Warrant (or a Lost Warrant Affidavit in substantially the form annexed hereto as Exhibit C with respect to this Warrant in the case of its loss, theft or destruction) to a common carrier for overnight delivery to the Company; provided, that if such Warrant Shares are to be issued in any name other than that of the registered holder of this Warrant, such issuance shall be deemed a transfer and the provisions of Section 8 shall be applicable. In the event of any exercise of the rights represented -3- by this Warrant in compliance with this Section 2(a), the Company shall on the second Business Day following the date of receipt of the Exercise Notice, the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise) and this Warrant (or a Lost Warrant Affidavit in substantially the form annexed hereto as Exhibit C with respect to this Warrant in the case of its loss, theft or destruction) (the "Exercise Delivery Documents"), credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the holder (or its designee) shall be entitled to the holder's (or its designee's) balance account with The Depository Trust Company; provided, however, if the holder who submitted the Exercise Notice requested physical delivery of any or all of the Warrant Shares, then the Company shall, on or before the second Business Day following receipt of the Exercise Delivery Documents issue and surrender to a common carrier for overnight delivery to the address specified in the Exercise Notice, a certificate, registered in the name of the holder (or its designee), for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the holder (or its designee) shall be entitled. Upon delivery of the Exercise Notice and Aggregate Exercise Price referred to above or notification to the Company of a Cashless Exercise referred to in Section 2(e), the holder of this Warrant (or its designee) shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of this Warrant as required by clause (iii) above or the certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Warrant Exercise Price or the Market Price of a security or the arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall promptly issue to the holder (or its designee) the number of shares of Common Stock that is not disputed and shall submit the disputed determinations or arithmetic calculations to the holder via facsimile within one Business Day of receipt of the holder's Exercise Notice. If the holder and the Company are unable to agree upon the determination of the Warrant Exercise Price or the Market Price or arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares within one day of such disputed determination or arithmetic calculation being submitted to the holder, then the Company shall immediately submit via facsimile (i) the disputed determination of the Warrant Exercise Price or the Market Price to an independent, reputable investment banking firm of nationally recognized standing, mutually acceptable to both the Company and the holder or (ii) the disputed arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares to an independent, outside accountant, mutually acceptable to both the Company and the holder. The Company shall cause the investment banking firm or the accountant, as the case may be, to perform the determinations or calculations and notify the Company and the holder of the results no later than forty-eight (48) hours from the time it receives the disputed determinations or calculations. Such investment banking firm's or accountant's determination or calculation, as the case may be, shall be deemed conclusive absent manifest error. (b) Unless the rights represented by this Warrant shall have expired or shall have been fully exercised, the Company shall, as soon as practicable and in no event later than two (2) Business Days after delivery of the Exercise Delivery Documents and at its own expense, issue a new Warrant identical in all respects to this Warrant exercised except it shall represent rights to purchase the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant exercised, less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which such Warrant is exercised. -4- (c) No fractional shares of Common Stock are to be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but rather the number of shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number. (d) If, despite the Company's obligations under the Agreement, the Warrant Shares to be issued are not registered and available for resale pursuant to a registration statement in accordance with the Agreement, then notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the holder of this Warrant may, at its election exercised in its sole discretion, exercise this Warrant in whole or in part and, in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company upon such exercise in payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price, elect instead to receive upon such exercise the "Net Number" of shares of Common Stock determined according to the following formula (a "Cashless Exercise"): Net Number = (A x B) - (A x C) ------------------------------ B For purposes of the foregoing formula: A = the total number of shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised. B = the Market Price as of the date of the Exercise Notice. C = the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Shares at the time of such exercise. 3. (a) Adjustment for Dividends in Other Stock and Property Reclassifications. In case at any time or from time to time the holders of the Common Stock (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall have received, or, on or after the record date fixed for the determination of eligible shareholders, shall have become entitled to receive, without payment therefor, (1) other or additional stock or other securities or property (other than cash) by way of dividend, (2) any cash or other property paid or payable out of any source other than retained earnings (determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles), or (3) other or additional stock or other securities or property (including cash) by way of stock-split, spin-off, reclassification, combination of shares or similar corporate rearrangement, (other than (x) shares of Common Stock or any other stock or securities into which such Common Stock shall have been exchanged, or (y) any other stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for such Common Stock or such other stock or securities), then and in each such case a holder, upon the exercise hereof as provided in Section 2, shall be entitled to receive the -5- amount of stock and other securities and property (including cash in the cases referred to in clauses (2) and (3) above) which such holder would hold on the date of such exercise if on the Issuance Date such holder had been the holder of record of the number of shares of Common Stock called for on the face of this Warrant, and had thereafter, during the period from the Issuance Date to and including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and/or all other or additional stock and other securities and property (including cash in the cases referred to in clause (2) and (3) above) receivable by it as aforesaid during such period, giving effect to all adjustments called for during such period by Sections 3(a) and 3(b). (h) Adjustment for Reorganization, Consolidation and Merger. In case of any reorganization of the Company (or any other corporation the stock or other securities of which are at the time receivable on the exercise of this Warrant) or reclassification of its securities after the Issuance Date, or the Company (or any such other corporation) shall consolidate with or merge into another corporation or entity or convey or exchange all or substantially all its assets to another corporation or entity, then and in each such case the holder of this Warrant, upon the exercise hereof as provided in Section 2 at any time after the consummation of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, conveyance or exchange, 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 properly to which such holder would have been entitled upon such consummation if such holder had exercised this Warrant immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment as provided in Sections 3(a), (b), (c) and (d); 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 such consummation. (i) Adjustment for Certain Dividends and Distributions. If the Company at any time or from time to time makes, or fixes a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of (x) Common Stock or any other stock or securities into which such Common Stock shall have been exchanged, or (y) any other stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for such Common Stock or such other stock or securities, then and in each such event (1) the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect shall be decreased as of the time of the issuance of such additional shares or, in the event such record date is fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect by a fraction (A) the numerator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date, and (B) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date as the case may be, plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution; provided, however, that if such record date is fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, the Warrant Exercise Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date, and thereafter the Warrant Exercise Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this Section 3(c) as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions; and -6- (2) the number of shares of Common Stock theretofore receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be increased, as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such record date is fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, in inverse proportion to the decrease in the Warrant Exercise Price. (j) Stock Split and Reverse Stock Split. If the Company at any time or from time to time effects a stock split or subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock, the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect immediately before that stock split or subdivision shall be proportionately decreased and the number of shares of Common Stock theretofore receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased. If the Company at any time or from time to time effects a reverse stock split or combines the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect immediately before that reverse stock split or combination shall be proportionately increased and the number of shares of Common Stock theretofore receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately decreased. Each adjustment under this Section 3(d) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the stock split, subdivision, reverse stock split or combination becomes effective. 4. Redemption at the Company's Election. The Company, upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice to the holder, may elect to redeem all or part of this Warrant at a price equal to $0.01 per Warrant Share issuable upon the exercise hereof, if, but only if the Closing Bid Price shall have exceeded $20.00 per share (as equitably adjusted to reflect any merger, consolidation or reorganization of the Company or any stock split, subdivision, reverse stock split or combination effected by the Company) on each of the twenty (20) consecutive trading days ending not more than one Business Day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption shall be delivered to the holder. Any such redemption shall be effective on the thirtieth day following the delivery of such notice, provided, however, that the holder may elect at any time prior to the effective date of redemption to exercise all or any portion of this Warrant in accordance with the terms hereof. The redemption price shall be payable in full, in cash, on the effective date of any redemption pursuant to this paragraph (4). A redemption notice delivered by the Company pursuant to this paragraph (4) shall be irrevocable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company's right to redeem all or part of this Warrant may not be exercised if on the date on which the Company delivers notice of such exercise the Market Price shall be less than $12.00 per share (as equitably adjusted to reflect any merger, consolidation or reorganization of the Company or any stock split, subdivision, reverse stock split or combination effected by the Company). 5. Covenants as to Common Stock. The Company hereby covenants and agrees as follows: (a) This Warrant is, and any Warrants issued in substitution for or replacement of this Warrant will upon issuance be, duly authorized and validly issued. (b) All Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof. -7- (c) During the period within which the rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will at all times have authorized and reserved at least 100% of the number of shares of Common Stock needed to provide for the exercise of the rights then represented by this Warrant and the par value of said shares will at all times be less than or equal to the applicable Warrant Exercise Price. (d) The Company shall secure the listing of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant upon each national securities exchange or automated quotation system, if any, upon which shares of Common Stock are then listed within the time required by such exchange or quotation system's rules and regulations and shall maintain, so long as any other shares of Common Stock shall be so listed, such listing of all shares of Common Stock from time to time issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant; and the Company shall so list on each national securities exchange or automated quotation system within the time required by such exchange or quotation system's rules and regulations, as the case may be, and shall maintain such listing of, any other shares of capital stock of the Company issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant if and so long as any shares of the same class shall be listed on such national securities exchange or automated quotation system. (e) The Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation 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 to be observed or performed by it hereunder, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant and in the taking of all such action as may reasonably be requested by the holder of this Warrant in order to protect the exercise privilege of the holder of this Warrant against dilution or other impairment, consistent with the tenor and purpose of this Warrant. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) will not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect, and (ii) will take all such actions 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 this Warrant. (f) This Warrant will be binding upon any entity succeeding to the Company by merger, consolidation or acquisition of all or substantially all of the Company's assets and any such successive mergers, consolidations or acquisitions. 6. Taxes. The Company shall pay any and all taxes which may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue or delivery of Common Stock or other securities or property in a name other than that of the registered holders of this Warrant to be converted and such holder shall pay such amount, if any, to cover any applicable transfer or similar tax. 7. Warrant Holder Not Deemed a Stockholder. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, no holder of this Warrant, solely by virtue of such holding, shall be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of shares of the Company for any purpose, nor shall -8- anything contained in this Warrant be construed to confer upon the holder hereof, as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether a reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification of stock, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice of meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, prior to the issuance to the holder of this Warrant of the Warrant Shares which he or she is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant. In addition, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on such holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise of this Warrant or otherwise) or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company. Notwithstanding this Section 6, the Company will provide the holder of this Warrant with copies of the same notices and other information given to the stockholders of the Company generally, contemporaneously with the giving thereof to the stockholders. 8. Representations of Holder. The holder of this Warrant, by the acceptance hereof, represents that it is acquiring this Warrant and the Warrant Shares for its own account for investment only and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution of this Warrant or the Warrant Shares, except pursuant to sales registered or exempted under the Securities Act; provided, however, that by making the representations herein, the holder does not agree to hold this Warrant or any of the Warrant Shares for any minimum or other specific term and reserves the right to dispose of this Warrant and the Warrant Shares at any time in accordance with or pursuant to a registration statement or an exemption under the Securities Act.

The Company may treat the person in whose name any Warrant is registered on the register as the owner and holder thereof for all purposes, but in all events recognizing any transfers made in accordance with the terms of this Warrant. (b) This Warrant and the rights granted hereunder shall be assignable by the holder hereof without the consent of the Company.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, this Warrant may be exercised by the holder hereof then registered on the books of the Company, in whole or in part, at any time on any Business Day on or after the opening of business on the date hereof and prior to 11:59 P.M. Eastern Time on the Expiration Date by (i) delivery of a written notice, in the forth of the subscription notice attached as Exhibit A hereto (the "Exercise Notice"), of such holder's election to exercise this Warrant, which notice shall specify the number of Warrant Shares to be purchased; (ii) (A) payment to the Company of an amount equal to the Warrant Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised (the "Aggregate Exercise Price") in cash, certified or bank funds or wire transfer of immediately available funds or (B) notifying the Company that this Warrant is being exercised pursuant to a Cashless Exercise (as defined in Section 2(e)); and (iii) the surrender of this Warrant (or a Lost Warrant Affidavit in substantially the form annexed hereto as Exhibit C with respect to this Warrant in the case of its loss, theft or destruction) to a common carrier for overnight delivery to the Company; provided, that if such Warrant Shares are to be issued in any name other than that of the registered holder of this Warrant, such issuance shall be deemed a transfer and the provisions of Section 8 shall be applicable. In the event of any exercise of the rights represented -3- by this Warrant in compliance with this Section 2(a), the Company shall on the second Business Day following the date of receipt of the Exercise Notice, the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise) and this Warrant (or a Lost Warrant Affidavit in substantially the form annexed hereto as Exhibit C with respect to this Warrant in the case of its loss, theft or destruction) (the "Exercise Delivery Documents"), credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the holder (or its designee) shall be entitled to the holder's (or its designee's) balance account with The Depository Trust Company; provided, however, if the holder who submitted the Exercise Notice requested physical delivery of any or all of the Warrant Shares, then the Company shall, on or before the second Business Day following receipt of the Exercise Delivery Documents issue and surrender to a common carrier for overnight delivery to the address specified in the Exercise Notice, a certificate, registered in the name of the holder (or its designee), for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the holder (or its designee) shall be entitled. Upon delivery of the Exercise Notice and Aggregate Exercise Price referred to above or notification to the Company of a Cashless Exercise referred to in Section 2(e), the holder of this Warrant (or its designee) shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of this Warrant as required by clause (iii) above or the certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Warrant Exercise Price or the Market Price of a security or the arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall promptly issue to the holder (or its designee) the number of shares of Common Stock that is not disputed and shall submit the disputed determinations or arithmetic calculations to the holder via facsimile within one Business Day of receipt of the holder's Exercise Notice. If the holder and the Company are unable to agree upon the determination of the Warrant Exercise Price or the Market Price or arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares within one day of such disputed determination or arithmetic calculation being submitted to the holder, then the Company shall immediately submit via facsimile (i) the disputed determination of the Warrant Exercise Price or the Market Price to an independent, reputable investment banking firm of nationally recognized standing, mutually acceptable to both the Company and the holder or (ii) the disputed arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares to an independent, outside accountant, mutually acceptable to both the Company and the holder. The Company shall cause the investment banking firm or the accountant, as the case may be, to perform the determinations or calculations and notify the Company and the holder of the results no later than forty-eight (48) hours from the time it receives the disputed determinations or calculations. Such investment banking firm's or accountant's determination or calculation, as the case may be, shall be deemed conclusive absent manifest error. (b) Unless the rights represented by this Warrant shall have expired or shall have been fully exercised, the Company shall, as soon as practicable and in no event later than two (2) Business Days after delivery of the Exercise Delivery Documents and at its own expense, issue a new Warrant identical in all respects to this Warrant exercised except it shall represent rights to purchase the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant exercised, less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which such Warrant is exercised. (c) No fractional shares of Common Stock are to be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but rather the number of shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number. -4- (d) If, despite the Company's obligations under the Agreement, the Warrant Shares to be issued are not registered and available for resale pursuant to a registration statement in accordance with the Agreement, then notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the holder of this Warrant may, at its election exercised in its sole discretion, exercise this Warrant in whole or in part and, in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company upon such exercise in payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price, elect instead to receive upon such exercise the "Net Number" of shares of Common Stock determined according to the following formula (a "Cashless Exercise"): Net Number = (A x B) - (A x C) ----------------- B For purposes of the foregoing formula: A = the total number of shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised. B = the Market Price as of the date of the Exercise Notice. C = the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Shares at the time of such exercise. 6. (a) Adjustment for Dividends in Other Stock and Property: Reclassifications. In case at any time or from time to time the holders of the Common Stock (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall have received, or, on or after the record date fixed for the determination of eligible shareholders, shall have become entitled to receive, without payment therefor, other or additional stock or other securities or property (other than cash) by way of dividend, (1) other or additional stock or other securities or property (other than cash) by way of dividend, (2) any cash or other property paid or payable out of any source other than retained earnings (determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles), or (3) other or additional stock or other securities or property (including cash) by way of stock-split, spin-off, reclassification, combination of shares or similar corporate rearrangement, (other than (x) shares of Common Stock or any other stock or securities into which such Common Stock shall have been exchanged, or (y) any other stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for such Common Stock or such other stock or securities), then and in each such case a holder, upon the exercise hereof as provided in Section 2, shall be entitled to receive the amount of stock and other securities and property (including cash in the cases referred to in clauses (2) and (3) above) which such holder would hold on the date of such exercise if on the Issuance Date such holder had been the holder of record of the number of shares of Common Stock -5- called for on the face of this Warrant, and had thereafter, during the period from the Issuance Date to and including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and/or all other or additional stock and other securities and property (including cash in the cases referred to in clause (2) and (3) above) receivable by it as aforesaid during such period, giving effect to all adjustments called for during such period by Sections 3(a) and 3(b). (b) Adjustment for Reorganization Consolidation and Merger. In case of any reorganization of the Company (or any other corporation the stock or other securities of which are at the time receivable on the exercise of this Warrant) or reclassification of its securities after the Issuance Date, or the Company (or any such other corporation) shall consolidate with or merge into another corporation or entity or convey or exchange all or substantially all its assets to another corporation or entity, then and in each such case the holder of this Warrant, upon the exercise hereof as provided in Section 2 at any time after the consummation of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, conveyance or exchange, 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 such holder would have been entitled upon such consummation if such holder had exercised this Warrant immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment as provided in Sections 3(a), (b), (c) and (d); 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 such consummation. (c) Adjustment for Certain Dividends and Distributions. If the Company at any time or from time to time makes, or fixes a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of (x) Common Stock or any other stock or securities into which such Common Stock shall have been exchanged, or (y) any other stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for such Common Stock or such other stock or securities, then and in each such event (1) the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect shall be decreased as of the time of the issuance of such additional shares or, in the event such record date is fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect by a fraction (A) the numerator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date, and (B) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date, and (B) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date as the case may be, plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution; provided, however, that if such record date is fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, the Warrant Exercise Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date, and thereafter the Warrant Exercise Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this Section 3(c) as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions; and -6- (2) the number of shares of Common Stock theretofore receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be increased, as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such record date is fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, in inverse proportion to the decrease in the Warrant Exercise Price. (d) Stock Split and Reverse Stock Split. If the Company at any time or from time to time effects a stock split or subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock, the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect immediately before that stock split or subdivision shall be proportionately decreased and the number of shares of Common Stock theretofore receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased. If the Company at any time or from time to time effects a reverse stock split or combines the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect immediately before that reverse stock split or combination shall be proportionately increased and the number of shares of Common Stock theretofore receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately decreased. Each adjustment tinder this Section 3(d) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the stock split, subdivision, reverse stock split or combination becomes effective. 7. Redemption at the Company's Election. The Company, upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice to the holder, may elect to redeem all or part of this Warrant at a price equal to $0.01 per Warrant Share issuable upon the exercise hereof, if, but only if the Closing Bid Price shall have exceeded $20.00 per share (as equitably adjusted to reflect any merger, consolidation or reorganization of the Company or any stock split, subdivision, reverse stock split or combination effected by the Company) on each of the twenty (20) consecutive trading days ending not more than one Business Day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption shall be delivered to the holder. Any such redemption shall be effective on the thirtieth day following the delivery of such notice, provided, however, that the holder may elect at any time prior to the effective date of redemption to exercise all or any portion of this Warrant in accordance with the terms hereof. The redemption price shall be payable in full, in cash, on the effective date of any redemption pursuant to this paragraph (4). A redemption notice delivered by the Company pursuant to this paragraph (4) shall be irrevocable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company's right to redeem all or part of this Warrant may not be exercised if on the date on which the Company delivers notice of such exercise the Market Price shall be less than $12.00 per share (as equitably adjusted to reflect any merger, consolidation or reorganization of the Company or any stock split, subdivision, reverse stock split or combination effected by the Company). 8. Covenants as to Common Stock. The Company hereby covenants and agrees as follows: (a) This Warrant is, and any Warrants issued in substitution for or replacement of this Warrant will upon issuance be, duly authorized and validly issued. (b) All Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof. -7- (c) During the period within which the rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will at all times have authorized and reserved at least 100% of the number of shares of Common Stock needed to provide for the exercise of the rights then represented by this Warrant and the par value of said shares will at all times be less than or equal to the applicable Warrant Exercise Price. (d) The Company shall secure the listing of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant upon each national securities exchange or automated quotation system, if any, upon which shares of Common Stock are then listed within the time required by such exchange or quotation system's rules and regulations and shall maintain, so long as any other shares of Common Stock shall be so listed, such listing of all shares of Common Stock from time to time issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant; and the Company shall so list on each national securities exchange or automated quotation system within the time required by such exchange or quotation system's rules and regulations, as the case may be, and shall maintain such listing of, any other shares of capital stock of the Company issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant if and so long as any shares of the same class shall be listed on such national securities exchange or automated quotation system. (e) The Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation 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 to be observed or performed by it hereunder, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant and in the taking of all such action as may reasonably be requested by the holder of this Warrant in order to protect the exercise privilege of the holder of this Warrant against dilution or other impairment, consistent with the tenor and purpose of this Warrant. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) will not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect, and (ii) will take all such actions 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 this Warrant. (f) This Warrant will be binding upon any entity succeeding to the Company by merger, consolidation or acquisition of all or substantially all of the Company's assets and any such successive mergers, consolidations or acquisitions. 9. Taxes. The Company shall pay any and all taxes which may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue or delivery of Common Stock or other securities or property in a name other than that of the registered holders of this Warrant to be converted and such holder shall pay such amount, if any, to cover any applicable transfer or similar tax. 10. Warrant Holder Not Deemed a Stockholder. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, no holder of this Warrant, solely by virtue of such holding, shall be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of shares of the Company for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be construed to confer upon the holder hereof, as such, any of -8- the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether a reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification of stock, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice of meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, prior to the issuance to the holder of this Warrant of the Warrant Shares which he or she is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant. In addition, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on such holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise of thus Warrant or otherwise) or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company. Notwithstanding this Section 6, the Company will provide the holder of this Warrant with copies of the same notices and other information given to the stockholders of the Company generally, contemporaneously with the giving thereof to the stockholders. 8. Representations of Holder.

Ownership and Transfer. (a) The Company shall maintain at its principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to the holder hereof), a register for this Warrant, in which the Company shall record the name and address of the person in whose name this Warrant has been issued, as well as the name and address of each transferee. The Company may treat the person in whose name any Warrant is registered on the register as the owner and holder thereof for all purposes, but in all events recognizing any transfers made in accordance with the terms of this Warrant. (b) This Warrant and the rights granted hereunder shall be assignable by the holder hereof without the consent of the Company.
