(a) Subdivisions, Combinations and Other Issuances. If the Company shall at any time prior to the expiration of this Unit Warrant (i) subdivide its Ordinary Shares, by split-up

9. No Impairment. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Unit Warrant, Company shall: (i) reserve an appropriate number of Ordinary Shares to facilitate the issuance of securities to the Holder pursuant to this Unit Warrant, (ii) not amend its Articles of Association or take any other action that would materially impair Company’s ability to comply with the terms of this Unit Warrant, and (iii) provide the Holder with at least ten (10) days prior written notice of the record date for any proposed dividend or distribution by the Company.

Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, for so long as the Holder or any of its affiliates, taken together, hold any Ordinary Shares or other securities of the Company that are convertible or exchangeable into the Ordinary Shares representing at least 5% in the aggregate of the then outstanding Ordinary Shares of the Company on a converted basis, the Holder shall be entitled to designate a board observer to attend all meetings of the board of directors of the Company in a non-voting observer capacity. All of the notification, background information, resolution, plans and schedules relating to the board meetings shall be delivered to the board observer under the same notification requirements as applicable to the members of the board of directors of the Company; provided, however, that the board observer shall agree to hold in confidence and trust and to act in a fiduciary manner with respect to all information so provided.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Share Warrants held by the officers and directors of the Company will not be redeemable so long as such officers and directors hold such Share Warrants.

(b) Date Fixed for, and Notice of, Redemption. In the event the Company shall elect to redeem all of its outstanding Share Warrants, the Company shall fix a date for the redemption. Notice of redemption shall be mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid, by the Company not less than thirty (30) days prior to the date fixed for redemption to the registered holders of the Share Warrants to be redeemed at their last addresses as they shall appear on the registration books.

On and after the redemption date, the record holder of the Share Warrants shall have no further rights except to receive, upon surrender of the Share Warrants, the Redemption Price.

5. Method of Exercise. While this Share 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:

(a) the surrender of this Share Warrant, together with a duly executed copy of the form of Notice of Exercise attached hereto, to the Secretary of the Company at its principal offices set forth on the signature page hereof; and

(b) the payment in the form of a certified or bank cashier’s check payable to the order of the Company in an amount equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares for which this Share Warrant is being exercised.

Any adjustment under this Section 8(a) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective, or as of the record date of such dividend, or in the event that no record date is fixed, upon the making of such dividend.

(b) Reclassification, Reorganization and Consolidation. In case of any reclassification, capital reorganization, or change in the Shares of the Company (other than as a result of a subdivision, combination, or stock dividend provided for in Section 8(a) above), then, as a condition of such reclassification, reorganization, or change, lawful provision shall be made, and duly executed documents evidencing the same from the Company or its successor shall be delivered to the Holder, so that the Holder shall have the right at any time prior to the expiration of this Share Warrant to purchase, at a total price equal to that payable upon the exercise of this Share Warrant (subject to adjustment of the Exercise Price as provided in Section 8), the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property receivable in connection with such reclassification, reorganization, or change by a holder of the same number of Shares as were purchasable by the Holder immediately prior to such reclassification, reorganization, or change. In any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interest of the Holder so that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable with respect to any shares of stock or other securities and property deliverable upon exercise hereof, and appropriate adjustments shall be made to the purchase price per share payable hereunder, provided the aggregate Exercise Price shall remain the same.

(c) Notice of Adjustment. When any adjustment is required to be made in the number or kind of Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant, or in the Exercise Price, the Company shall promptly notify the holder of such event and of the number of Shares or other securities or property thereafter purchasable upon exercise of this Share Warrant.

(d) Issuance of New Warrant. Upon the occurrence of any of the events listed in this Section 8 that results in an adjustment of the type, number or exercise price of the securities underlying this Share Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive a new warrant reflecting such adjustment upon the Holder tendering this Share Warrant in exchange.

However, nothing in this Section 11 shall limit the right of the Holder to be provided the notices required under this Warrant.

12. Successors and Assigns. The terms and provisions of this Warrant shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Company and the Holder and their respective successors and assigns.

13. Amendments and Waivers. Any term of this Share Warrant may be amended and the observance of any term of this Share Warrant may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), with the written consent of the Company and the Holder. Any waiver or amendment effected in accordance with this Section 13 shall be binding upon each holder of any Shares purchased under this Share Warrant at the time outstanding (including securities into which such Shares have been converted), each future holder of all such Shares, and the Company.
