Each Right entitles you to subscribe for three shares of Common Stock of the Company (the "Basic Subscription Privilege"). You may subscribe for such shares at the subscription price of $1.00 per share or a total subscription price of $3.00 for all three shares (the "Subscription Price"). If you subscribe for all of the shares available pursuant to the Basic Subscription Privilege, you are also entitled to purchase at the Subscription Price up to that number of additional shares offered in the Rights Offering that are not purchased by other rightsholders pursuant to their Basic Subscription Privilege as shown above, subject to proration as set forth in the prospectus (the "Oversubscription Privilege").

        Set forth above is the number of Rights evidenced by this Subscription Rights Certificate that you are entitled to exercise pursuant to your Basic Subscription Privilege. You have been issued one Right per every full share of Common Stock that you held at the close of business on the Record Date.

        If the aggregate Subscription Price paid by a holder is insufficient to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock that the holder indicates are being subscribed for, or if a holder does not specify the number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased, then the holder will be deemed to have exercised first, the Basic Subscription Privilege (if not already fully exercised) and second, the Oversubscription Privilege to purchase shares of Common Stock to the full extent of the payment rendered. If the aggregate Subscription Price paid by a holder exceeds the amount necessary to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock for which the holder has indicated an intention to subscribe, then the holder will be deemed to have exercised first, the Basic Subscription Privilege (if not already fully exercised) and second, the Oversubscription Privilege to the full extent of the excess payment tendered.
