(b) payment, (i) in cash (by check) or by wire transfer, (ii) by cancellation by the Holder of indebtedness of the Company to the Holder; or (lii) by a combination of (i) and (ii), of an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying the Number of Shares of Warrant Stock being purchased upon such exercise by the then effective Exercise Price (the "Exercise Amount").

In lieu of the payment methods set forth in Section 3.1(b) above, if the Fair Market Value of one share of Warrant Stock is greater than the Exercise Price (at the date of calculation set forth below), the Holder may elect to exchange all or some of the Warrant for shares of Warrant Stock equal to the value of the Warrant being exchanged on the date of exchange.

Notwithstanding whether an IPO Notice has been delivered to the Holder or any other provision of this Warrant to the contrary, this Warrant shall be deemed exercised on the consummation of the IPO; the Fair Market Value will be the price at which one share of Common Stock was sold to the public in the IPO. Ff the Holder has elected to exercise this Warrant pursuant to this Section and the IPO is not consummated, then the Holder's exercise of this Warrant shall not be effective unless the Holder confirms in writing the Holder's intention to go forward with the exercise of this Warrant.

In case of any partial exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall cancel this Warrant upon surrender hereof and shall execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor and date for the balance of the shares of Warrant Stock purchasable hereunder. This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately prior to the close of business on the date of its surrender for exercise as provided above. The person entitled to receive the shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be treated for all puiposes as the holder of record of such shares as of the close of business on the date the Holder is deemed to have exercised this Warrant.
 
4. VALID ISSUANCE; TAXES. All shares of Warrant Stock issued upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and the Company shall pay all taxes and other governmental charges that may be imposed in respect of the issue or delivery thereof.
 
5. ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF SHARES. The Number of Shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (or any shares of stock or other securities or property receivable or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) and the Exercise Price are subject to adjustment upon occurrence of the following events:

5.1 Adjustment for Stock Splits. Stock Subdivisions or Combinations of Shares. If the Company at any time while this Warrant, or any portion hereof, remains outstanding shall split, subdivide or combine the shares of Warrant Stock, as to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist, into a different number of securities of the same class, the Number of Shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased and the Exercise Price for such securities shall be proportionately decreased in the case of a split or subdivision, and likewise, the Number of Shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately decreased and the Exercise Price proportionately increased in the case of a combination.
 
5.2 Adjustment for Dividends or Distributions of Stock or Other Securities or Property. In case the Company shall make or issue, or shall fix a record date for the determination of eligible holders entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution with respect to the Warrant Stock (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time issuable upon exercise of the Warrant) payable in (a) securities of the Company or (b) assets (excluding cash dividends paid or payable solely out of retained earnings), then, in each such case, the Holder on exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation, effective date or record date of such dividend or other distribution, shall receive, in addition to the shares of Warrant Stock (or such other stock or securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such date, and without the payment of additional consideration therefor, the securities or such other assets of the Company to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such date if such Holder had exercised this Warrant on the date hereof and had thereafter, during the period from the date hereof to and including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and/or all other additional stock available by it as aforesaid during such period giving effect to all adjustments called for by this Section 5.
 
4

 
5.3 Reclassification. If the Company, by reclassification of securities or otherwise, shall change any of the securities as to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist into the same or a different number of securities of any other class or classes, this Warrant shall thereafter represent the right to acquire such number and kind of securities as would have been issuable as a result of such change with respect to the securities that were subject to the purchase rights under this Warrant immediately prior to such reclassification or other change and the Exercise Price therefore shall be appropriately adjusted, all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Section 5. No adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 5.3 upon any conversion or redemption of the Warrant Stock which is the subject of Section 5.5.
 
5.4 Adjustment for Capita] Reorganization, Merger or Consolidation. If at any time while this Warrant, or any portion hereof, is outstanding and unexpired there shall be a Change of Control, this Warrant shall cease to represent the right to receive Warrant Stock and shall automatically represent the right to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant, during the period specified herein and upon payment of the Exercise Price then in effect, the Number of Shares of stock or other securities or property offered to the Company's holders of Warrant Stock in connection with such Change of Control that a holder of shares of Warrant Stock, deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant would have been entitled to receive in such Change of Control if this Warrant had been exercised immediately before such Change of Control, subject to further adjustment as provided in this Section 5. The foregoing provisions of this Section 5.4 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, consolidations, mergers, sales, and transfers to the extent that this Warrant is assigned to or assumed by any successor corporation or entity, whether by operation of law or otherwise, and to the stock or securities of any other corporation that are at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant. If the per-share consideration payable to the holder hereof for shares of Warrant Stock in connection with any such transaction is in a form other than cash or marketable securities, then the value of such consideration shall be determined in good faith by the Company's Board of Directors. In all events, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Company's Board of Directors) shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Warrant with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder after the transaction, to the end that the provisions of this Warrant shall be applicable after that event, as near as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares or other property deliverable after that event upon exercise of this Warrant.
 
5.5 Redemption or Termination of Warrant Stock. In case all or any portion of the authorized and outstanding shares of Warrant Stock of the Company are redeemed or converted or reclassified into other securities or property pursuant to the Company's Articles or Certificate of Incorporation or otherwise, or the Warrant Stock otherwise ceases to exist, then, in such case, the Holder of this Warrant, upon exercise hereof at any time after the date on which the Warrant Stock is so redeemed or ceases to exist (the "Warrant Stock Termination Date"), shall receive, subject to the terms of this Warrant, in lieu of the Number of Shares of Warrant Stock that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the Warrant Stock Termination Date, the securities or property that would have been received if this Warrant had been exercised in full and the Warrant Stock received thereupon had been simultaneously converted immediately prior to the Warrant Stock Termination Date, all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Warrant. Additionally, the Exercise Price shall be immediately adjusted to equal the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the aggregate Exercise Price of the maximum Number of Shares of Warrant Stock for which this Warrant was exercisable immediately prior to the Warrant Stock Termination Date by (y) the Number of Shares of Warrant Stock of the Company for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after the Warrant Stock Termination Date, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.

6. CERTIFICATE AS TO ADJUSTMENTS. In each case of any adjustment in the Exercise Price, or number or type of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the Chief Financial Officer or Controller of the Company shall compute such adjustment in accordance with the tenns of this Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based, including a statement of the adjusted Exercise Price. After each such adjustment, the Company shall promptly send (by facsimile and by either first class mail, postage prepaid or overnight delivery) a copy of each such certificate to the Holder.
 
7. LOSS OR MUTILATION. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it, and (in the case of mutilation) upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will execute and deliver in lieu thereof a new Warrant of like tenor as the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant.
 
8. RESERVATION OF WARRANT STOCK. The Company hereby covenants that at all times there shall be reserved for issuance and delivery upon exercise of this Warrant such Number of Shares of Warrant Stock or other shares of capital stock of the Company as are from time to time issuable upon exercise of this Warrant and, from time to time, will take all steps necessary to amend its Articles or Certificate of Incorporation to provide sufficient reserves of shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. All such shares shall be duly authorized, and when issued upon such exercise, shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, free and clear of all liens, security interests, charges and other encumbrances or restrictions on sale and free and clear of all preemptive rights, except encumbrances or restrictions arising under federal or state securities laws. Issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to the Company's officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for shares of Warrant Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant.
 
9. TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Warrant and compliance with all applicable securities laws, this Warrant and all rights hereunder may be transferred to any parent or subsidiary of the Registered Holder, in whole or in part, on the books of the Company maintained for such purpose at the principal office of the Company referred to above, by the Registered Holder hereof in person, or by duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant properly endorsed and upon payment of any necessary transfer tax or other governmental charge imposed upon such transfer.

Each taker and holder of this Warrant, by taking or holding the same, consents and agrees that when this Warrant shall have been so endorsed, the person in possession of this Warrant may be treated by the Company, and all other persons dealing with this Warrant, as the absolute owner hereof for any purpose and as the person entitled to exercise the rights represented hereby, any notice to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however that until a transfer of this Warrant is duly registered on the books of the Company, the Company may treat the Registered Holder hereof as the owner for all purposes.
