Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share

Date: May 22, 2002

MERLIN SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGIES INTERNATIONAL, INC.
EXCHANGE WARRANT

THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for value received, SDS MERCHANT FUND, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, or its registered assigns, is entitled to purchase from Merlin Software Technologies International, Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Nevada (the "Company"), at any time or from time to time during the period specified in Section 2 hereof 215,550 fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), at an exercise price per share (the "Exercise Price") equal to $0.75. The shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder (the "Warrant Shares") and the Exercise Price are subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4 hereof. The term "Warrant" and all references thereto, as used throughout this instrument, shall mean this instrument as originally executed, or if later amended or supplemented, then as so amended or supplemented. This Warrant is being issued by the Company along with similar warrants designated as Exchange Warrants and other warrants designated as Series B Warrants (the "Other Warrants" and, together with this Warrant, the "Warrants") pursuant to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of May 22, 2002, by and among the Company and the other signatories thereto (the "Securities Purchase Agreement").

This Warrant is subject to the following terms, provisions and conditions:

1. Manner of Exercise; Issuance of Certificates; Payment for Shares. Subject to the provisions hereof, including, without limitation, the limitations contained in Section 8 hereof, this Warrant may be exercised by the holder hereof, in whole or in part, by the surrender of this Warrant, together with a completed exercise agreement in the form attached hereto (the "Exercise Agreement"), to the Company during normal business hours on any business day at the Company's principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by written notice to the holder hereof), and upon (i) payment to the Company in cash, by certified or official bank check or by wire transfer for the account of the Company, of the Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares specified in the Exercise Agreement or (ii) if the holder is effectuating a Cashless Exercise (as defined in Section 12(c) hereof) pursuant to Section 12(c) hereof, delivery to the Company of a written notice of an election to effect a Cashless Exercise for the Warrant Shares specified in the Exercise Agreement. The Warrant Shares so purchased shall be deemed to be issued to the holder hereof or such holder's designee, as the record owner of such shares, as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered, the completed Exercise Agreement shall have been delivered, and payment shall have been made for such shares as set forth above or, if such date is not a business date, on the next succeeding business date. The Warrant Shares so purchased, representing the aggregate number of shares specified in the Exercise Agreement, shall be delivered to the holder hereof within a reasonable time, not exceeding two business days, after this Warrant shall have been so exercised (the "Delivery Period"). If the Company's transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") Fast Automated Securities Transfer program, and so long as the certificates therefor do not bear a legend and the holder is not obligated to return such certificate for the placement of a legend thereon, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Warrant Shares so purchased to the holder by crediting the account of the holder or its nominee with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system ("DTC Transfer"). If the aforementioned conditions to a DTC Transfer are not satisfied, the Company shall deliver to the holder physical certificates representing the Warrant Shares so purchased. Further, the holder may instruct the Company to deliver to the holder physical certificates representing the Warrant Shares so purchased in lieu of delivering such shares by way of DTC Transfer. Any certificates so delivered shall be in such denominations as may be reasonably requested by the holder hereof, shall be registered in the name of such holder or such other name as shall be designated by such holder and, following the date on which the Warrant Shares have been registered under the Securities Act pursuant to that certain Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of May 22, 2002, by and between the Company and the other signatories thereto (the "Registration Rights Agreement") or otherwise may be sold by the holder pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (or a successor rule), shall not bear any restrictive legend. If this Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, then the Company shall, at its expense, at the time of delivery of such certificates, deliver to the holder a new Warrant representing the number of shares with respect to which this Warrant shall not then have been exercised.

If, at any time, a holder of this Warrant submits this Warrant, an Exercise Agreement and payment to the Company of the Exercise Price for each of the Warrant Shares specified in the Exercise Agreement (including pursuant to a Cashless Exercise), and the Company fails for any reason (other than the reasons contemplated by Sections 8(f) and (g) hereof) to deliver, on or prior to the fourth business day following the expiration of the Delivery Period for such exercise, the number of shares of Common Stock to which the holder is entitled upon such exercise (an "Exercise Default"), then the Company shall pay to the holder payments ("Exercise Default Payments") for an Exercise Default in the amount of (a) (N/365), multiplied by (b) the amount by which the Market Price (as defined herein) on the date the Exercise Agreement giving rise to the Exercise Default is transmitted in accordance with this Section 1 (the "Exercise Default Date") exceeds the Exercise Price in respect of such Warrant Shares, multiplied by (c) the number of shares of Common Stock the Company failed to so deliver in such Exercise Default, multiplied by (d) .24, where N = the number of days from the Exercise Default Date to the date that the Company effects the full exercise of this Warrant which gave rise to the Exercise Default. The accrued Exercise Default Payment for each calendar month shall be paid in cash or shall be convertible into Common Stock, at the holder's option, as follows:

(a) In the event holder elects to take such payment in cash, cash payment shall be made to holder by the fifth day of the month following the month in which it has accrued; and

(b) In the event holder elects to take such payment in Common Stock, the holder may convert such payment amount into Common Stock (in accordance with the terms contained in Article III of the Series B-1 Notes and Series B-2 Notes (each as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) (the "Notes") issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement) at the lower of the Exercise Price or the Market Price (as in effect at the time of conversion) at any time after the fifth day of the month following the month in which it has accrued.

Nothing herein shall limit the holder's right to pursue actual damages for the Company's failure to maintain a sufficient number of authorized shares of Common Stock as required pursuant to the terms of Section 3(b) hereof or to otherwise issue shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms hereof, and the holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief).

"Market Price," as of any date, (i) means the volume weighted average price for the Common Stock as reported on the OTC Bulletin Board (the "Bulletin Board") by Bloomberg Financial Markets ("Bloomberg") or other nationally recognized reporting service, at the option of the holder hereof, for the ten consecutive trading days immediately preceding such date, or (ii) if the Bulletin Board is not the principal trading market for the shares of Common Stock, the average of the reported bid prices reported by Bloomberg or such other nationally recognized reporting service on the principal trading market for the Common Stock during the same period, or, if there is no bid price for such period, the last sales price reported by Bloomberg or such service for such period, or (iii) if the foregoing do not apply, the last bid price of such security in the over-the-counter market on the pink sheets for such security as reported by Bloomberg or such service, or if no bid price is so reported for such security, the last sale price of such security as reported by Bloomberg or such service, or (iv) if market value cannot be calculated as of such date on any of the foregoing bases, the Market Price shall be the average fair market value as reasonably determined by an investment banking firm selected by the Company and reasonably acceptable to the holder, with the costs of the appraisal to be borne by the Company. The manner of determining the Market Price of the Common Stock set forth in the foregoing definition shall apply with respect to any other security in respect of which a determination as to market value must be made hereunder. For purposes of this Section 1, "trading day" means any day on which principal United States securities exchange or trading market where the Common Stock is then listed or traded, is open for trading.

2. Period of Exercise. This Warrant is immediately exercisable, at any time or from time to time on or after the date of initial issuance of this Warrant (the "Issue Date") and before 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on August 18, 2007 (the "Exercise Period"). The Exercise Period shall automatically be extended by one (1) day for each day on which the Company does not have a number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance upon exercise hereof at least equal to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise hereof, or otherwise fails to deliver shares of Common Stock in the names set forth in Section 1 hereof upon exercise hereof, or the Warrant Shares are not then otherwise registered for resale pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement.

3. Certain Agreements of the Company. The Company hereby covenants and agrees as follows:

(a) Shares to be Fully Paid. All Warrant Shares will, upon issuance in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, be validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens, claims and encumbrances.

(b) Reservation of Shares. During the Exercise Period, the Company shall at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of issuance upon exercise of this Warrant, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the exercise in full of this Warrant (without giving effect to the limitations on exercise set forth in Section 8(g) hereof).

(c) Listing. The Company shall promptly secure the listing of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant upon each national securities exchange or automated or electronic quotation system, if any, upon which shares of Common Stock are then listed or become listed (subject to official notice of issuance upon exercise of this Warrant) 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 or electronic quotation system, 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 or electronic quotation system.

(d) Certain Actions Prohibited. The Company will not, by amendment of its charter 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 economic benefit inuring to the holder hereof and 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 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.

(e) Successors and Assigns. 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.

(f) Blue Sky Laws. The Company shall, on or before the date of issuance of any Warrant Shares, take such actions as the Company shall reasonably determine are necessary to qualify the Warrant Shares for, or obtain exemption for the Warrant Shares for, sale to the holder of this Warrant upon the exercise hereof under applicable securities or "blue sky" laws of the states of the United States, and shall provide evidence of any such action so taken to the holder of this Warrant prior to such date; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to (i) qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3(f), (ii) subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction or (iii) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction.

4. Antidilution Provisions. During the Exercise Period, the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 4.

In the event that any adjustment of the Exercise Price as required herein results in a fraction of a cent, such Exercise Price shall be rounded up or down to the nearest cent.

(a) Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company, at any time during the Exercise Period, subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification or otherwise) its shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, then, after the date of record for effecting such subdivision, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. If the Company, at any time during the Exercise Period, combines (by reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification or otherwise) its shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then, after the date of record for effecting such combination, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased.

(b) Adjustment in Number of Shares. Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to the provisions of Section 4(a), the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant at each such Exercise Price shall be adjusted by multiplying a number equal to the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant at such Exercise Price immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the product so obtained by the adjusted Exercise Price.

(c) Distribution of Assets. In case the Company shall declare or make any distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Common Stock as a partial liquidating dividend, stock repurchase by way of return of capital or otherwise (including any dividend or distribution to the Company's shareholders of cash or shares (or rights to acquire shares) of capital stock of a subsidiary) (a "Distribution"), at any time during the Exercise Period, then the holder hereof shall be entitled upon exercise of this Warrant for the purchase of any or all of the shares of Common Stock subject hereto, to receive the amount of such assets (or rights) which would have been payable to the holder had such holder been the holder of such shares of Common Stock on the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to such Distribution. If the Company distributes rights, warrants, options or any other form of convertible securities and the right to exercise or convert such securities would expire in accordance with their terms prior to the expiration of the Exercise Period, then the terms of such securities shall provide that such exercise or convertibility right shall remain in effect until 30 days after the date the holder hereof receives such securities pursuant to the exercise hereof.

(d) Dilutive Issuance. The provisions set forth within this Section 4(d) shall apply only so long as any of the Notes remain outstanding.

(i) Except as otherwise provided in Section 4(a) hereof, if and whenever during any period after 120 days from the Issue Date the Company issues or sells, or in accordance with Section 4(d)(ii) hereof is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock for no consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price in effect at the time of such issuance (a "Dilutive Issuance"), then effective immediately upon the Dilutive Issuance, the Exercise Price will be adjusted to equal an exercise price equal to one and one-half (1.5) multiplied by the per share price at which such shares were issued, sold or deemed to have been issued or sold in such Dilutive Issuance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 4 if such adjustment would result in an increase in the Exercise Price.

(ii) Effect on Exercise Price of Certain Events. For purposes of determining the adjusted Exercise Price under Section 4(d)(i) hereof, the following will be applicable:

(A) Issuance of Rights or Options. If the Company in any manner issues or grants any warrants, rights or options, whether or not immediately exercisable, to subscribe for or to purchase Common Stock or other securities exercisable, convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock ("Convertible Securities") (such warrants, rights and options to purchase Common Stock or Convertible Securities are hereinafter referred to as "Options") and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such Options (and the price of any conversion of Convertible Securities, if applicable) is less than the Exercise Price in effect on the Measurement Date (as defined herein) of such securities ("Below Exercise Price Options"), then the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of all such Below Exercise Price Options (assuming full exercise, conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities, if applicable) will, as of the date of the issuance or grant of such Below Exercise Price Options, be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company for such price per share. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the "price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such Below Exercise Price Options" is determined by dividing (i) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issuance or granting of all such Below Exercise Price Options, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the exercise of all such Below Exercise Price Options, plus, in the case of Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Below Exercise Price Options, the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration payable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof (determined in accordance with the calculation method set forth in Section 4(d)(ii)(B)(2) below) at the time such Convertible Securities first become exercisable, convertible or exchangeable, by (ii) the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of all such Below Exercise Price Options (assuming full conversion of Convertible Securities, if applicable). No further adjustment to the Exercise Price will be made upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon the exercise of such Below Exercise Price Options or upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of such Below Exercise Price Options. "Measurement Date" means for purposes of any issuances of securities, the date of such issuance.

(B)Issuance of Convertible Securities.

(1) If the Company in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities, which Convertible Securities do not have a fluctuating conversion or exercise price or exchange ratio, whether or not immediately convertible (other than where the same are issuable upon the exercise of Options) and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon such exercise, conversion or exchange (as determined pursuant to Section 4(d)(ii)(B)(2) hereof if applicable) is less than the Exercise Price in effect on the Measurement Date, then the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities will, as of the date of the issuance of such Convertible Securities, be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company for such price per share. For the purposes of the preceding sentence, the "price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon such exercise, conversion or exchange" is determined by dividing (i) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issuance or sale of all such Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof at the time such Convertible Securities first become exercisable, convertible or exchangeable, by (ii) the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities. No further adjustment to the Exercise Price will be made upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon exercise, conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.

(2) If the Company in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities with a fluctuating conversion or exercise price or exchange ratio (a "Variable Rate Convertible Security"), then the "price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon such exercise, conversion or exchange" for purposes of the calculation contemplated by Section 4(d)(ii)(B)(1) hereof shall be deemed to be the lowest price per share which would be applicable (assuming all holding period and other conditions to any discounts contained in such Variable Rate Convertible Security have been satisfied) if the Exercise Price on the Measurement Date of such Variable Rate Convertible Security was 75% of the Exercise Price on such date (the "Assumed Variable Market Price"). Further, if the Exercise Price at any time or times thereafter is less than or equal to the Assumed Variable Market Price last used for making any adjustment under this Section 4(d) with respect to any Variable Rate Convertible Security, the Exercise Price in effect at such time shall be readjusted to equal the Exercise Price which would have resulted if the Assumed Variable Market Price at the time of issuance of the Variable Rate Convertible Security had been 75% of the Daily Market Price (as defined herein) existing at the time of the adjustment required by this sentence.

(3) Change in Option Price or Conversion Rate. If there is a change at any time in (a) the amount of additional consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise of any Options; (b) the amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of any Convertible Securities; or (c) the rate at which any Convertible Securities are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock (in each such case, other than under or by reason of provisions designed to protect against dilution and except when an adjustment is made pursuant to Section 4(d)(ii)(B)(2) above), the Exercise Price in effect at the time of such change will be readjusted to the Exercise Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities still outstanding provided for such changed additional consideration or changed conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold.

(4) Calculation of Consideration Received. If any Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued, granted or sold for cash, the consideration received therefor will be the amount received by the Company therefor, after deduction of all underwriting discounts or allowances in connection with such issuance, grant or sale. In case any Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for a consideration part or all of which shall be other than cash, including in the case of a strategic or similar arrangement in which the other entity will provide services to the Company, purchase services from the Company or otherwise provide intangible consideration to the Company, the amount of the consideration other than cash received by the Company (including the net present value of the consideration expected by the Company for the provided or purchased services) will be the fair market value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the Company will be the Daily Market Price with respect to such securities thereof as of the date of receipt. In case any Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued in connection with any merger or consolidation in which the Company is the surviving corporation, the amount of consideration therefor will be deemed to be the fair market value of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving corporation as is attributable to such Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, as the case may be. Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, if Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued, granted or sold in conjunction with each other as part of a single transaction or in a series of related transactions, any Holder of the Notes may elect to determine the amount of consideration deemed to be received by the Company therefor by deducting the fair value of any type of securities (the "Disregarded Securities") issued, granted or sold in such transaction or series of transactions. If the Holder makes an election pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, no adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made pursuant to this Section 4(d) for the issuance of the Disregarded Securities or upon any conversion or exercise thereof. For example, if the Company were to issue convertible notes having a face value of $1,000,000 and warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock at an exercise price equal to the market price of the Common Stock on the date of issuance of such warrants in exchange for $1,000,000 of consideration, the fair value of the warrants would be subtracted from the $1,000,000 of consideration received by the Company for the purposes of determining whether the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the convertible notes shall be deemed to be issued at a price per share below market price and, if so, for purposes of determining any adjustment to the Exercise Price hereunder as a result of the issuance of the Convertible Securities. The Company shall calculate, using standard commercial valuation methods appropriate for valuing such assets, the fair market value of any consideration other than cash or securities; provided, however, that if the Holder hereof does not agree to such fair market value calculation within three business days after receipt thereof from the Company, then such fair market value will be determined in good faith by an investment banker or other appropriate expert of national reputation selected by the Company and reasonably acceptable to the Majority Holders, with the costs of such appraisal to be borne by the Company.

(e) Exceptions to Adjustment of Exercise Price. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4, no adjustment to the Exercise Price will be made (i) upon the grant or exercise of any Convertible Securities or issuance of stock to employees, directors or consultants of the Company which may hereafter be granted to, issued to, or exercised by any employee, director or consultant under any stock option or similar benefit plan or arrangement of the Company now existing or to be implemented in the future, so long as (A) the issuance of such stock or Convertible Securities is approved by a majority of the Board of Directors of the Company or a majority of the members of a committee of non-employee directors established for such purpose and (B) the exercise price or conversion price for such Convertible Securities, or issue price for such stock, is no less than the greater of (1) 85% of the Daily Market Price in effect on the date of such issuance or grant or (2) 85% of the Exercise Price in effect on the date of such issuance or grant, and (C) the aggregate of all issuances or grants of any stock or Convertible Securities to employees, directors or consultants of the Company (excluding such number of shares of Common Stock issued to Robert Heller and Gary Heller prior to August 1, 2000, which total, for the purposes of this Section 4(e)(ii)(C), shall not exceed in any event 6,000,000 shares of Common Stock) does not exceed 17% of the Issuance Cap, or (ii) upon conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Warrants.

The term "Issuance Cap," when used in this Section 4, shall mean the aggregate of the outstanding Common Stock plus all shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any debt securities or preferred shares of the Company, whether existing now or hereafter issued or granted, plus all shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of any warrants or options of the Company, whether existing now or hereafter issued or granted, which shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon conversion or exercise are issued or granted at a price that is no greater than 125% of the Daily Market Price, all as of the Measurement Date.

"Daily Market Price" means, as of any date of determination, the daily volume weighted average sale price for the Common Stock, for the trading day immediately preceding such date of determination (subject to equitable adjustment for any stock splits, stock dividends, reclassifications or similar events during such trading day and further shall be subject to adjustment as provided herein) on the principal United States securities exchange or trading market where the Common Stock is listed or traded as reported by Bloomberg, or if the foregoing does not apply, the last reported sale price of such security in the Bulletin Board for such security as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no sale price is reported for such security by Bloomberg, the average of the bid prices of any market makers for such security as reported in the "pink sheets" by the Pink Sheets LLC, in each case for such date or, if such date was not a trading date for such security, on the next preceding date which was a trading date. For the avoidance of doubt, the trading day immediately preceding any Conversion Date is the last calendar day that is a trading day and which is immediately preceding the Conversion Date. If the Daily Market Price cannot be calculated for such security as of either of such dates on any of the foregoing bases, the Daily Market Price of such security on such date shall be the fair market value as reasonably determined by an investment banking firm selected by the Corporation and reasonably acceptable to the Majority Holders, with the costs of such appraisal to be borne by the Corporation.

(f) Notice of Adjustment. Upon the occurrence of any event which requires any adjustment of the Exercise Price, then, and in each such case, the Company shall give notice thereof to the holder hereof, which notice shall state the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment and the increase or decrease in the number of Warrant Shares purchasable at such price upon exercise, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. Such calculation shall be certified by the chief financial officer of the Company.

(g) No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock are to be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of any fractional share which would otherwise be issuable in an amount equal to the same fraction of the Market Price of a share of Common Stock on the date of such exercise.

(h) Other Notices. In case at any time:

(i) the Company shall declare any dividend upon the Common Stock payable in shares of stock of any class or make any other distribution (other than dividends or distributions payable in cash out of retained earnings consistent with the Company's past practices with respect to declaring dividends and making distributions) to the holders of the Common Stock; 

(ii) the Company shall offer for subscription pro rata to the holders of the Common Stock any additional shares of stock of any class or other rights;

(iii) there shall be any capital reorganization of the Company, or reclassification of the Common Stock, or consolidation or merger of the Company with or into, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets to, another corporation or entity; or

(iv) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company;

then, in each such case, the Company shall give to the holder of this Warrant (a) notice of the date or estimated date on which the books of the Company shall close or a record shall be taken for determining the holders of Common Stock entitled to receive any such dividend, distribution, or subscription rights or for determining the holders of Common Stock entitled to vote in respect of any such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up and (b) in the case of any such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, notice of the date (or, if not then known, a reasonable estimate thereof by the Company) when the same shall take place. Such notice shall also specify the date on which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive such dividend, distribution, or subscription rights or to exchange their Common Stock for stock or other securities or property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation, or winding-up, as the case may be. Such notice shall be given at least thirty (30) days prior to the record date or the date on which the Company's books are closed in respect thereto. Failure to give any such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the validity of the proceedings referred to in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall publicly disclose the substance of any notice delivered hereunder prior to delivery of such notice to the holder hereof.

(i) Certain Events. If, at any time during the Exercise Period, any event occurs of the type contemplated by the adjustment provisions of this Section 4 but not expressly provided for by such provisions, the Company will give notice of such event as provided in Section 4(f) hereof, and the Company's Board of Directors will make an appropriate adjustment in the Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant at each such Exercise Price so that the rights of the holder shall be neither enhanced nor diminished by such event.

7. Issue Tax. The issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the holder of this Warrant or such shares for any issuance tax or other costs in respect thereof, provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any certificate in a name other than the holder of this Warrant.

8. No Rights or Liabilities as a Shareholder. This Warrant shall not entitle the holder hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the Company. No provision of this Warrant, in the absence of affirmative action by the holder hereof to purchase Warrant Shares, and no mere enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the holder hereof, shall give rise to any liability of such holder for the Exercise Price or as a shareholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

9. Transfer, Exchange, Redemption and Replacement of Warrant.

(a) Restriction on Transfer. This Warrant and the rights granted to the holder hereof are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant, together with a properly executed assignment in the form attached hereto, at the office or agency of the Company referred to in Section 7(e) below, provided, however, that any transfer or assignment shall be subject to the conditions set forth in Sections 7(f) and (g) hereof and to the provisions of Sections 2(f) and 2(g) of the Securities Purchase Agreement. Each transferee of this Warrant or any portion thereof shall be bound by the selling restrictions set forth in Section 4(n) of the Securities Purchase Agreement, which Section is incorporated herein by reference. Until due presentment for registration of transfer on the books of the Company, the Company may treat the registered holder hereof as the owner and holder hereof for all purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.

(g) Additional Restrictions on Exercise or Transfer. In no event shall the holder hereof have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant for shares of Common Stock or to dispose of any portion of this Warrant to the extent that such right to effect such exercise or disposition would result in the holder or any of its affiliates beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.
