1. Exercise, Issuance of Certificates, Reduction in Number of Warrant Shares.
1.1 General. This Warrant shall vest on October 27, 2004. The Vested shares are exercisable at the option of the Holder of record on or prior to the Expiration Date, at any time or from time to time for all or any part of the vested Warrant Shares (but not for a fraction of a share) which may be purchased hereunder, as that number may be adjusted pursuant to Section 3 of this Warrant. The Company agrees that the Warrant Shares purchased under this Warrant shall be and are deemed to be issued to the Holder as the record owner of such Warrant

Shares as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered, properly endorsed, the completed and executed Form of Subscription delivered, and payment made for such Warrant Shares. Certificates for the Warrant Shares so purchased, together with any other securities or property to which the Holder is entitled upon such exercise, shall be delivered to the Holder by the Company at the Company’s expense as soon as practicable after the rights represented by this Warrant have been so exercised. In case of a purchase of less than all the Warrant Shares which may be purchased under this Warrant, the Company shall cancel this Warrant and execute and deliver to the Holder within a reasonable time a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor for the balance of the Warrant Shares purchasable under the Warrant surrendered upon such purchase. Each stock certificate so delivered shall be registered in the name of the Holder.
1.2 Net Issue Exercise of Warrant. Deleted.
1.3 Record Ownership. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the person in whose name any certificate for shares of Common Stock or other evidence of ownership of any other security is issued upon exercise or exchange of the Warrant shall for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of record of such shares or other security on the Delivery Date, irrespective of the date of delivery of such certificate or other evidence of ownership (subject, in the case of any exercise to which Section 1.6 of this Warrant applies, to the consummation of a transaction upon which such exercise is conditioned), notwithstanding that the transfer books of the Company shall then be closed or that such certificates or other evidence of ownership shall not then actually have been delivered to such person.
1.4 Approvals. If any securities constituting Warrant Shares or any portion thereof to be issued upon exercise or exchange of the Warrant require registration or approval under any applicable law, or require listing on any national securities exchange or national market system before such securities may be so issued, the Company will as expeditiously as possible cause such securities to be registered, approved or listed, as applicable. The Company may suspend the exercise of the Warrant for the period during which such registration, approval or listing is required but not in effect.
1.5 Conditional Exercise or Exchange. Any form of subscription or exchange form delivered under Sections 1.1 or 11.2 may condition the exercise or exchange of this Warrant on the consummation of a transaction being undertaken by the Company or the Holder, and such exercise or exchange shall not be deemed to have occurred except concurrently with the consummation of such transaction, except that, for purposes of determining whether such exercise or exchange is timely it shall be deemed to have occurred on the date of delivery (the “Delivery Date”) of the subscription or exchange form. If any exercise of the Warrant is so conditioned, then, subject to delivery of the items required by Sections 1.1 and 2 of this Warrant, the Company shall deliver the certificates and other evidence of ownership of other securities or other property in such manner as the Holder shall direct as required in connection with the consummation of such transaction upon which the exercise is conditioned. At any time that the Holder shall give notice to the Company that such transaction has been abandoned or that the Holder has withdrawn from participation in such transaction, the Company shall return the items
2
delivered pursuant to Sections 1.1 and 2 of this Warrant, and the Holder’s election to exercise the Warrant shall be deemed rescinded.
1.6 Regulatory Problem. The Holder shall not exercise or exchange the Warrant for shares of Common Stock if after giving effect to such exercise or exchange the Holder reasonably determines that such exercise would violate any law or regulation or any requirement of any governmental authority applicable to Holder or his affiliates.
2. Shares to be Fully Paid. The Company covenants and agrees that all Warrant Shares, will, upon issuance and payment of the applicable Exercise Price, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and free of all liens and encumbrances, except for restrictions on transfer provided for herein or under applicable federal and state securities laws.
3. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares. The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares shall be proportionately adjusted from time to time upon the occurrence of any capital reorganization or any reclassification of Common Stock, or the consolidation, merger, combination or exchange of shares with another entity, or the divisive reorganization of the Company. Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price, the Holder of this Warrant shall thereafter be entitled to purchase, at the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment, the number of shares obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of shares purchasable pursuant hereto immediately prior to such adjustment, and dividing the product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment.
4. Registration.Upon exercise of this Warrant, the Company will provide for piggy back registration rights as provided in this Section 4. If at any time there is not an effective Registration Statement covering all of the Warrant Shares and the Company shall determine to prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its equity securities, then the Company shall send to Holder a written notice of such determination and, if within fifteen days after the date of such notice, Holder shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such registration statement all or any part of such Warrant Shares as Holder requests to be registered, subject to customary underwriter cutbacks applicable to all holders of registration rights; provided, that, the Company shall not be required to register any Warrant Shares pursuant to this Section 4 that are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144(k) promulgated under the Securities Act or that are the subject of a then effective Registration Statement. The piggy back registration rights provided herein are subject to underwriter discretion and customary indemnification agreements.

being transferred. Holder shall pay Company’s reasonable costs incurred in effectuating such transfer.
6.4 Disposition of Warrant Shares.With respect to any offer, sale, or other disposition of the Warrant or any Warrant Shares, the Holder hereof and each subsequent Holder of this Warrant agrees to give written notice to the Company prior thereto, describing briefly the manner thereof, together with a written opinion of such holder’s counsel, if reasonably requested by the Company, to the effect that such offer, sale or other disposition may be effected without registration or qualification (under the Act as then in effect or any federal or state law then in effect) of the Warrant or Warrant Shares, as the case may be, and indicating whether or not under the Act certificates for the Warrant or Warrant Shares to be sold or otherwise disposed of require any restrictive legend as to applicable restrictions on transferability in order to insure compliance with the Act.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Warrant or Warrant Shares may be offered, sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with Rule 144 under the Act, provided that the Company shall have been furnished with such information as the Company may request to provide reasonable assurance that the provisions of Rule 144 have been satisfied. Each certificate representing the Warrant or Warrant Shares thus transferred (except a transfer pursuant to Rule 144) shall bear a legend as to the applicable restrictions on transferability in order to insure compliance with the Act, unless in the aforesaid opinion of counsel for the Holder, such legend is not required in order to insure compliance with the Act.

6
with the domestic laws of the State of California without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether in the State of California or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of California.
