(f) ADJUSTMENT PROVISIONS. The Common Exercise Rate and the Additional --------------------- Common Exercise Rate shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows: 1. If, at any time after the Original Issue Date (in the case of the Common Exercise Rate) or the date of the Conversion (in the case of the Additional Common Exercise Rate), the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of Common Stock or by a subdivision or split-up of shares of Common Stock, then, following the record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such stock dividend, subdivision or split-up, the Common Exercise Rate (and the Additional Common Exercise Rate, if applicable) shall be appropriately increased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of the Warrants shall be increased in proportion to such increase in outstanding shares. 2. If, at any time after the Original Issue Date (in the case of the Common Exercise Rate) or the Conversion Date (in the case of the Additional Common Exercise Rate), the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding is decreased by a combination of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, then, following the record date for such combination, the Common Exercise Rate (and the Additional Common Exercise Rate, if applicable) shall be appropriately decreased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of the Warrants shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares. 3. In the event of any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification of the stock of the Company (other than a change in par value or from no par value to par value or from par value to no par value or as a result of a stock dividend or subdivision, split-up or combination of shares), any consolidation or merger of the Company, or any sale, lease, conveyance to another person of the property of the Company pursuant to which the Company's Common Stock and/or Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is converted into other -3- securities, cash or assets, each Warrant shall after such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or conveyance be exercisable into the kind and number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Company or of the Company resulting from such consolidation or surviving such merger to which the holder of the number of shares of Common Stock (and/or Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, if applicable) deliverable (immediately prior to the time of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation or merger) upon exercise of such Warrant would have been entitled upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or conveyance. The provisions of this clause shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers or conveyances. 4. The provisions of this Section (f) shall be interpreted so as not to duplicate the effect of adjustments made to the conversion rate of the Preferred Shares into Common Stock under the Certificate of Designations. In the event an event comparable to those described in Sections f(1) or (2) occurs with respect to the Preferred Shares themselves, appropriate adjustment will be made in the Preferred Exercise Rate, preceding sentence of this Section (f)(4). (g) STATEMENT OF ADJUSTMENT. Whenever a Conversion Rate shall be ----------------------- adjusted as provided in paragraph (f), the Company shall make available for inspection by the Holder during regular business hours, at its principal executive offices or at such other place as may be designated by the Company, a statement, signed by its chief executive officer or president, showing in detail the facts requiring such adjustment and the Conversion Rate that shall be in effect after such adjustment. The Company shall also cause a copy of such statement to be sent by first class certified mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid, to Holder at such Holder's address appearing on the Company's records.

The Holder agrees to provide the Company with such information and representations as may be requested by the Company in order to establish a claim to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Act, and any applicable state securities laws, including, a representation that the Holder(s) are taking the Shares for investment, and not with a view to distribution.
