whole or in part) of this Early Put Warrant either (i) the date this Early Put
Warrant, the Exercise Notice and the Aggregate Exercise Price are received by
the Company or (ii) the date advanced copy of the Exercise Notice is sent by

Exercise Notice, and the Aggregate Exercise Price are received by the Company
within five (5) Trading Days thereafter and provided further that if this Early
Put Warrant the original Exercise Notice and the Aggregate Exercise Price are

applicable to the Put Closing is lower than the Purchase Price on the
Subscription Date with respect to such Put, this Early Put Warrant shall become
immediately exercisable, subject to clause (c) below.
(b) Number of Shares. The number of shares of Common Stock for
which this Early Put Warrant is exercisable (the "Early Put Warrant Shares")
shall be determined by subtracting (x) the Investment Amount divided by the

(c) Cash Payment in Lieu of Issuance of Shares. In the event
that the Warrant Holder exercises this Early Put Warrant (in whole or in part)

shares of Common Stock pursuant to such exercise, pay to the Investor the

of the Cash-Out Option and in any event within two (2) Trading Days thereafter,
the Cash-Out Price for any and all shares of Common Stock for which the Company
elects the Cash-Out Option.
Section 3. Exercise; Cashless Exercise.
(a) Method of Exercise. This Early Put Warrant may be
exercised in whole or in part (but not as to a fractional share of Common
Stock), at any time and from time to time during the Exercise Period, by the
Warrant Holder by (i) the surrender of this Early Put Warrant, the Exercise
Notice and the Aggregate Exercise Price to the Company at the address set forth
in Section 12 hereof or (ii) the delivery by facsimile of an executed and
3
completed Exercise Notice to the Company and delivery to the Company within five
(5) Trading Days thereafter of this Early Put Warrant, the original Exercise
Notice and the Aggregate Exercise Price.
(b) Payment of Aggregate Exercise Price. Subject to paragraph
(c) below, payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price shall be made by check or
bank draft payable to the order of the Company or by wire transfer to an account
designated by the Company. If the amount of the payment received by the Company
is less than the Aggregate Exercise Price, the Warrant Holder will be notified
of the deficiency and shall make payment in that amount within five (5) Trading
Days of such notice. In the event the payment exceeds the Aggregate Exercise
Price, the Company will refund the excess to the Warrant Holder within three (3)
Trading Days of both the receipt of such payment and the knowledge of such
excess.
(c) Cashless Exercise. As an alternative to payment of the
Aggregate Exercise Price in accordance with Section 3(b). above, the Warrant
Holder may elect to effect a cashless exercise by so indicating on the Exercise
Notice and including a calculation of the number of shares of Common Stock to be
issued upon such exercise in accordance with the terms hereof (a "Cashless
Exercise"). In the event of a Cashless Exercise, the Warrant Holder shall
surrender this Early Put Warrant for that number of shares of Common Stock
determined by (i) multiplying the number of Early Put Warrant Shares for which
this Early Put Warrant is being exercised by the Per Share Early Put Warrant
Value and (ii) dividing the product by the Bid Price of one share of the Common
Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Exercise Date.
(d) Replacement Early Put Warrant. In the event that the Early
Put Warrant is not exercised in full, the number of Early Put Warrant Shares
shall be reduced by the number of such Early Put Warrant Shares for which this
Early Put Warrant is exercised, and the Company, at its expense, shall forthwith
issue and deliver to the Warrant Holder a new Early Put Warrant of like tenor in
the name of the Warrant Holder or as the Warrant Holder may request, reflecting
such adjusted number of Early Put Warrant Shares.
Section 4. Ten Percent Limitation. The Warrant Holder may not exercise
this Early Put Warrant such that the number of Early Put Warrant Shares to be
received pursuant to such exercise aggregated with all other shares of Common
Stock then owned by the Warrant Holder beneficially or deemed beneficially owned
by the Warrant Holder would result in the Warrant Holder owning more than 9.9%
of all of such Common Stock as would be outstanding on such Exercise Date, as
determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules
and regulations promulgated thereunder. As of any date prior to the Exercise
Date, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock into which this Early Put
Warrant is exercisable, together with all other shares of Common Stock then
beneficially owned (as such term is defined in Rule 13(d) under the Exchange
Act) by such Warrant Holder and its affiliates, shall not exceed 9.9% of the
total outstanding shares of Common Stock as of such date.
Section 5. Delivery of Stock Certificates.
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Early Put
Warrant, as soon as practicable after the exercise of this Early Put Warrant in
full or in part, and in any event within five (5) Trading Days thereafter, the
4
Company at its expense (including, without limitation, the payment by it of any
applicable issue taxes) will cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to
the Warrant Holder, or as the Warrant Holder may lawfully direct, a certificate
or certificates for the number of validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable
Early Put Warrant Shares to which the Warrant Holder shall be entitled on such
exercise, together with any other stock or other securities or property
(including cash, where applicable) to which the Warrant Holder is entitled upon
such exercise in accordance with the provisions hereof; provided, however, that
any such delivery to a location outside of the United States shall also be made
within five (5) Trading Days after the exercise of this Early Put Warrant in
full or in part.
(b) This Early Put Warrant may not be exercised as to
fractional shares of Common Stock. In the event that the exercise of this Early
Put Warrant, in full or in part, would result in the issuance of any fractional
share of Common Stock, then in such event the Warrant Holder shall receive in
cash an amount equal to the Bid Price of such fractional share within five (5)
Trading Days.
Section 6. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Company.
(a) The Company shall take all necessary action and
proceedings as may be required and permitted by applicable law, rule and
regulation for the legal and valid issuance of this Early Put Warrant and the
Early Put Warrant Shares to the Warrant Holder.
(b) At all times during the Exercise Period, the Company shall
take all steps reasonably necessary and within its control to insure that the
Common Stock remains listed or quoted on the Principal Market.
(c) The Early Put Warrant Shares, when issued in accordance
with the terms hereof, will be duly authorized and, when paid for or issued in
accordance with the terms hereof, shall be validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable.
(d) The Company has authorized and reserved for issuance to
the Warrant Holder the requisite number of shares of Common Stock to be issued
pursuant to this Early Put Warrant. The Company shall at all times reserve and
keep available, solely for issuance and delivery as Early Put Warrant Shares
hereunder, such shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be issuable as
Early Put Warrant Shares, and shall accordingly adjust the number of such shares
of Common Stock promptly upon the occurrence of any of the events specified in
Section 7 hereof.
Section 7. Adjustment of the Exercise Price. The Exercise Price and,
accordingly, the number of Early Put Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of
the Early Put Warrant, shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the
happening of certain events as follows:
(a) Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Mandatory Share
Exchange. If the Company, at any time while this Early Put Warrant is unexpired
and not exercised in full, (i) reclassifies or changes its Outstanding Capital
Shares or (ii) consolidates, merges or effects a mandatory share exchange (x)
with or into another corporation (other than a merger or mandatory share
exchange with another corporation in which the Company is a continuing
corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or change, or (y)
as a result of a subdivision or combination of Outstanding Capital Shares
5
issuable upon exercise of this Early Put Warrant) or (iii) sells, transfers or
leases all or substantially all of its assets, then in any such event the
Company, or such successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, shall,
without payment by the Warrant Holder of any additional consideration therefor
amend this Early Put Warrant or issue a new warrant providing that the Warrant
Holder shall have rights not less favorable to the Holder than those then
applicable to this Early Put Warrant and to receive upon exercise under such
amendment of this Early Put Warrant or new warrant, in lieu of each share of
Common Stock theretofore issuable upon exercise of this Early Put Warrant
hereunder, the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities, money or
property receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger,
mandatory share exchange, lease, sale or transfer by the holder of one share of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Early Put Warrant had this Early Put
Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such reclassification, change,
consolidation, merger, mandatory share exchange or sale or transfer (without
giving effect to the limitation on ownership set forth in Section 4 hereof) and
an appropriate provision for the foregoing shall be made by the Company as part
of any such event. Such amended warrant or new warrant shall provide for
adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the
adjustments provided for in this Section 7. The provisions of this Section 7(a)
a. shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, changes,
consolidations, mergers, mandatory share exchanges, sales, transfers and leases.
(b) Subdivision or Combination of Shares; Stock Dividends. If
the Company, at any time after the Effective Date while this Early Put Warrant
is unexpired and not exercised in full, (x) shall subdivide its Common Stock,
(y) shall combine its Common Stock, (z) shall pay a dividend in its Capital
Shares, or make any other distribution of its Capital Shares, then the Exercise
Price shall be adjusted, as of the date the Company shall take a record of the
holders of its Capital Shares for the purpose effecting such subdivision,
combination or dividend or other distribution (or if no such record is taken, as
of the effective date of such subdivision, combination, dividend or other
distribution), to that price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in
effect immediately prior to such subdivision, combination, dividend or other
distribution by a fraction:
(i) the numerator of which shall be the total number
of Outstanding Capital Shares immediately prior to such subdivision,
combination, dividend or other distribution, and
(ii) the denominator of which shall be the total
number of Outstanding Capital Shares immediately after such subdivision,
combination, dividend or other distribution. The provisions of this Section 7(b)
. shall not apply under any of the circumstances for which an adjustment is made
pursuant to Section 7(a).
(c) Liquidating Dividends, Etc. If the Company, at any time
while this Early Put Warrant is unexpired and not exercised in full, makes a
distribution of its assets or evidences of indebtedness to the holders of its
Capital Shares as a dividend in liquidation or by way of return of capital or
other than as a dividend payable out of earnings or surplus legally available
for dividends under applicable law or any distribution to such holders made in
respect of the sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets (other
than under the circumstances provided for in the foregoing subsections (a)
through (b)) while an exercise is pending, then the Warrant Holder shall be
6
entitled to receive upon such exercise of the Early Put Warrant in addition to
the Early Put Warrant Shares receivable in connection therewith, and without
payment of any consideration other than the Exercise Price, an amount in cash
equal to the value of such distribution per Capital Share multiplied by the
number of Early Put Warrant Shares that, on the record date for such
distribution, are issuable upon such exercise of the Early Put Warrant (with no
further adjustment being made following any event which causes a subsequent
adjustment in the number of Early Put Warrant Shares issuable), and an
appropriate provision therefor shall be made a part of any such distribution.
The value of a distribution that is paid in other than cash shall be determined
in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.
(d) Adjustment of Number of Shares. Upon each adjustment of
the Exercise Price pursuant to any provisions of this Section 7, the number of
Early Put Warrant Shares issuable hereunder at the option of the Warrant Holder
shall be calculated, to the nearest one hundredth of a whole share, multiplying
the number of Early Put Warrant Shares issuable prior to an adjustment by a
fraction:
(i) the numerator of which shall be the Exercise
Price before any adjustment pursuant to this Section 7; and
(ii) the denominator of which shall be the Exercise
Price after such adjustment.
(e) Other Action Affecting Capital Shares. In the event after
the date hereof the Company shall take any action affecting the number of
Outstanding Capital Shares, other than an action specifically described in any
of the foregoing subsections (a) through (e) hereof, inclusive, (including
without limitation a subdivision or combination of Common Stock, or the payment
of a dividend in its Capital Shares or any other distribution in its Warrant
Closing), that in the reasonable opinion of the Warrant Holder would have a
materially adverse effect upon the rights of the Warrant Holder at the time of
exercise of the Early Put Warrant, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted in such
manner and at such time as the Board of Directors on the advice of the Company's
independent public accountants shall in good faith determine to be equitable in
the circumstances.
(f) Notice of Certain Actions; Notice of Adjustments.
(i) In the event the Company shall, at a time while
the Early Put Warrant is unexpired and outstanding, take any action pursuant to
subsections (a) through (e) of this Section 7 that may result in an adjustment
of the Exercise Price, the Company shall notify the Warrant Holder of such
action ten (10) days in advance of its effective date in order to afford to the
Warrant Holder an opportunity to exercise the Early Put Warrant prior to such
action becoming effective.
(ii) Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the Exercise
Price or number of Early Put Warrant Shares shall be adjusted pursuant to
Section 7 hereof, the Company shall promptly deliver by facsimile with the
original delivered by express courier service in accordance with Section 12
hereof; a certificate, which shall be signed by the Company's President or a
Vice President and by its Treasurer or Assistant Treasurer or its Secretary or
Assistant Secretary, setting forth in reasonable detail the event requiring the
adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment
7
was calculated (including a description of the basis on which the Company's
Board of Directors made any determination hereunder), and the Exercise Price and
number of Early Put Warrant Shares purchasable at that Exercise Price after
giving effect to such adjustment.
Section 8. No Impairment. The Company will not, by amendment of its
Articles of Incorporation or By-Laws 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 of this Early Put Warrant, but will at all times in good faith
assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such
action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the
Warrant Holder against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Company (a) will not increase the par value of any Early Put
Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor on such exercise, and (b) will
take all such action as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate in order that
the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Early Put
Warrant Shares on the exercise of this Early Put Warrant.
Section 9. Rights As Stockholder. Prior to exercise of this Early Put
Warrant and except as provided in Section 7 hereof, the Warrant Holder shall not
be entitled to any rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to the
Early Put Warrant Shares, including (without limitation) the right to vote such
shares, receive dividends or other distributions thereon or be notified of
stockholder meetings. However, in the event of any taking by the Company of a
record of the holders of any class of securities for the purpose of determining
the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend (other than a cash
dividend) or other distribution, any right to subscribe for, purchase or
otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or
property, or to receive any other right, the Company shall mail to each Warrant
Holder, at least ten (10) days prior to the date specified therein, a notice
specifying the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of
such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and character of such
dividend, distribution or right.
Section 10. Replacement of Early Put Warrant. Upon receipt of evidence
reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or
mutilation of the Early Put Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or
destruction of the Early Put Warrant, upon delivery of an indemnity agreement or
security reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the
case of any such mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of such Early Put
Warrant, the Company at its expense will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a
new Early Put Warrant of like tenor.
Section 11. Restricted Securities.
(a) Registration or Exemption Required. This Early Put Warrant
has been issued in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of
the Securities Act in reliance upon the provisions of Section 4(2) promulgated
by the SEC under the Securities Act. This Early Put Warrant and the Early Put
Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Early Put Warrant may not be
resold except pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption to
the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state laws.
