This Warrant is issued pursuant to that certain Bridge Loan Agreement dated as of the Warrant Issue Date, a copy of which is attached hereto as Attachment A (the "Bridge Loan Agreement").

Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the Holder is entitled, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company (or at such other place as the Company shall notify the holder hereof in writing), to purchase from the Company up to three hundred fifty thousand (350,000) fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock of the Company, as constituted on the Warrant Issue Date (the "Common Stock").

 

 

2.

Exercise Price. The aggregate purchase price for the Shares shall be thirty eight thousand five hundred dollars ($38,500), calculated at the rate of $0.11 per share (the "Exercise Price").

 

 

3.

Exercise Period. This Warrant shall be exercisable, in whole or in part, during the term commencing on the Warrant Issue Date and ending at 5:00 p.m. (MST) on August 23, 2011 provided, however, that in the event of (a) the closing of the Company's sale or transfer of all or substantially all of its assets, or (b) the closing of the acquisition of the Company by another entity by means of merger, consolidation or other transaction or series of related transactions, resulting in the exchange of the outstanding shares of the Company's capital stock unless (i) the shareholders of the Company immediately prior to such transaction or series of related transactions are holders of a majority of the voting equity securities of the surviving or acquiring corporation immediately thereafter and (ii) each of such shareholders immediately prior to such transaction or series of related transactions holds the same pro rata share of such majority of the voting equity securities of the surviving or acquiring corporation as each hold of the Company immediately prior to such transaction or series of related transactions, this Warrant shall, on the date of such event, no longer be exercisable and become null and void.

4.

Method of Exercise. While this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable in accordance with Section 3 above, the Holder may exercise, in whole or in part, the purchase rights evidenced hereby. Such exercise shall be effected by:

 

 

 

- 1 -

 



 

 

 

a.

the surrender of the Warrant, together with a duly executed copy of the form of Notice of Election attached hereto, to the Secretary of the Company at its principal offices; and

 

 

b.

the payment to the Company of an amount equal to the aggregate Exercise Price for the number of Shares being purchased.

 

 

5.

Representations and Warranties of Holder. The Holder hereby represents and warrants that:

 

 

a.

Authorization. The Holder has full power and authority to enter into this Warrant, and this Warrant constitutes its valid and legally binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms except (i) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors' rights generally and (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies.

 

 

b.

Purchase Entirely for Own Account. This Warrant is being issued to such Holder in reliance upon such Holder's representation to the Company, which by such Holder's execution of this Warrant such Holder hereby confirms, that this Warrant, the Preferred Stock to be received by such Holder upon exercise of this Warrant and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof (collectively, the "Securities") will be acquired for investment for such Holder's own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that such Holder has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. By executing this Warrant, such Holder further represents that such Holder does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such person or to any third person, with respect to any of the Securities.

 

 

c.

Disclosure of Information. Such Holder further represents that it has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the offering of the Securities and the business, properties, prospects and financial condition of the Company.

 

 

d.

Investment Experience. Such Holder is an investor in securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that it is able to fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of its investment, and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Securities. If other than an individual, Holder also represents it has not been organized for the purpose of acquiring the Securities.

 

 

e.

Restricted Securities. Such Holder understands that the Securities it is purchasing are characterized as "restricted securities" under the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), only in certain limited circumstances. In this connection, such Holder represents that it is familiar with SEC Rule 144, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Act.

 

 

f.

Further Limitations on Disposition. Without in any way limiting the representations set forth above, such Holder further agrees not to make any disposition of all or any portion of the Securities unless and until the transferee has agreed in writing for the benefit of the

Company to be bound by this Section 5, provided and to the extent this Section is then applicable, and:

 

 

i.

There is then in effect a Registration Statement under the Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with such Registration Statement; or

 

 

ii.

(A) Such Holder shall have notified the Company of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and (B) if reasonably requested by the Company, such Holder shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such disposition will not require registration of such securities under the Act. It is agreed that the Company will not require opinions of counsel for transactions made pursuant to Rule 144 except in unusual circumstances.

 

 

iii.

Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraphs (i) and (ii) above, no such registration statement or opinion of counsel shall be necessary for a transfer by a Holder (A) that is a partnership to a partner of such partnership or a retired partner of such partnership who retires after the date hereof, or to the estate of any such partner or retired partner or the transfer by gift, will or intestate succession of any partner to his or her spouse or to the siblings, lineal descendants or ancestors of such partner or his or her spouse, or (B) to any entity that is controlled by, controls or is under common control with the Holder, if the transferee agrees in writing to be subject to the terms hereof to the same extent as if he or she were an original Holder hereunder.

 

 

g.

Legends. It is understood that the certificates evidencing the Securities may bear the following legend:

 

"These securities have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. They may not be sold, offered for sale, pledged or hypothecated in the absence of a registration statement in effect with respect to the securities under such Act or an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company that such registration is not required or unless sold pursuant to Rule 144 of such Act."

 

 

6.

Certificates for Shares. Upon the exercise of the purchase rights evidenced by this Warrant, one or more certificates for the number of Shares so purchased shall be issued as soon as practicable thereafter (with appropriate restrictive legends, if applicable), and in any event within thirty (30) days of the delivery of the subscription notice. In case the holder shall exercise this Warrant with respect to less than all of the Shares that may be purchased under this Warrant, the Company shall execute a new warrant in the form of this Warrant for the balance of such Shares and deliver such new warrant to the holder of this Warrant.

 

 

7.

Issuance of Shares. The Company covenants that it will at all times keep available such number of authorized shares of its Common Stock, free from all preemptive rights with respect thereto, which will be sufficient to permit the exercise of this Warrant for the full number of Shares specified herein. The Company covenants that the Shares, when issued pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens, and charges with respect to the issuance thereof.

8.

No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but in lieu of such fractional shares the Company shall make a cash payment therefor on the basis of the Exercise Price then in effect.

 

 

9.

No Shareholder Rights. Prior to exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall not be entitled to any rights of a shareholder with respect to the Shares, including (without limitation) the right to vote such Shares, receive dividends or other distributions thereon, exercise preemptive rights or be notified of shareholder meetings, and such holder shall not be entitled to any notice or other communication concerning the business or affairs of the Company. However, nothing in this Section 9 shall limit the right of the Holder to be provided the Notices required under this Warrant; provided further, however, the Company will afford to the Holder the right, upon advance notice, to meet periodically with the Company's chief financial officer during mutually agreeable business hours to discuss the Company's business and affairs.
