Mutilation or Loss of Warrant. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) receipt of reasonably satisfactory indemnification, and (in the case of mutilation) upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor and date and any such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant shall thereupon become void. 5.

Protection Against Dilution. (a) Adjustment Mechanism. If an adjustment of the Exercise Price is required pursuant to this Section 6, the Holder shall be entitled to purchase such number of additional shares of Common Stock as will cause (i) the total number of shares of Common Stock Holder is entitled to purchase pursuant to this Warrant, multiplied by (ii) the adjusted purchase price per share, to equal (iii) the dollar amount of the total number of shares of Common Stock Holder is entitled to purchase before adjustment multiplied by the total purchase price before adjustment. (b) Capital Adjustments.

A rights offering to stockholders of the Company shall be deemed a stock dividend to the extent of the bargain purchase element of the rights. 7. Warrant Call. At any time or from time to time after the Registration Statement (as defined in Section 8(b) hereof) has been declared effective, the Company, at its option, may, upon written notice to the Holder (the "Call Notice"), call up to fifty percent (50%) of this Warrant if the Common Stock trades at a price equal to or greater than $3.00 per share for ten (10) consecutive trading days prior to the date the Company calls the Warrant. To be effective, the Call Notice must be given within ten (10) days after the aforementioned ten (10) day period. The rights and privileges granted pursuant to this Warrant with respect to such Warrant Shares subject to the Call Notice shall terminate if this Warrant is not exercised with respect to such Warrant Shares by the Holder within ten (10) days after the Call Notice is received by the Holder. In the event that this Warrant is not exercised by the Holder with respect to the Warrant Shares subject to the Call Notice, this Warrant shall expire at 5:00 p.m. eastern time on the call date and the Company will remit to the Holder $0.01 per Warrant Share and a new Warrant certificate representing the number of Warrant Shares, if any, with respect to which this Warrant has not been exercised or subject to a Call Notice upon such Holder tendering to the Company the expired Warrant certificate. 2 8.

Neither this Warrant nor any of the Warrant Shares or any other security issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant may be sold, transferred, pledged or hypothecated in the absence of an effective registration statement under the Act relating to such security or an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company that registration is not required under the Act.
