Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2004
 


1.
Nature of Business and Going Concern

Nature of Business

The Company, and its former subsidiaries, were engaged in the manufacture and distribution of standard and custom precision mechanical assemblies and components throughout the United States.

On February 19, 2003, the Company filed a petition for bankruptcy in the United States Bankruptcy Court under Chapter 11 in the Eastern District of New York titled "Allied Devices Corporation, Case No. 03-80962-511." The Company emerged from bankruptcy pursuant to a Bankruptcy Court Order entered on September 10, 2003, with no remaining assets or liabilities.

The terms of the bankruptcy settlement included: (1) a reverse common stock split of 30 shares of outstanding stock for 1 share; (2) increasing the authorized common capital stock from 25,000,000 to 50,000,000 shares with a par value of $0.001; (3) a change in the name of the Company from "Allied Devices Corporation" to "Deep Well Oil & Gas, Inc.", and (4) the authorization for the issuance of 2,000,000 post split restricted common shares and 4,000,000 post split common shares in exchange for $50,000, which was paid into the bankruptcy court by the recipients of the shares.

Restated and amended articles of incorporation completed the terms of the bankruptcy have been filed in the state of Nevada.

Upon emergence from Chapter 11 proceedings, the Company adopted fresh-start reporting in accordance with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position 90-7, Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code (SOP 90-7). In connection with the adoption of fresh-start reporting, a new entity was deemed created for financial reporting purposes. For financial reporting purposes, the Company adopted the provisions of fresh-start reporting effective September 10, 2003. All periods presented prior to September 10, 2003, including the financial information contained in these financial statements, reflect the Predecessor Company. In adopting the requirements of fresh-start reporting as of September 10, 2003, the company was required to value its assets and liabilities at fair value and eliminate any accumulated deficit as of September 10, 2003. The Company emerged from Chapter 11 proceedings with no assets and liabilities pursuant to the Bankruptcy Order. Because the current business, heavy oil and gas exploration, has no relevance to the Predecessor Company, there is no basis for financial comparisons between the Company's current operations and the Predecessor Company.

This report has been prepared showing the name "Deep Well Oil & Gas, Inc." and the post split common stock, with $0.001 par value, from inception. The accumulated deficit has been restated to zero and dated September 10, 2003, with the statement of operations to begin on that date.

Going Concern

These financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which presumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.

The Company intends to seek business opportunities that will provide a profit; however, the Company does not have the working capital necessary to be successful in this effort, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining additional working capital and the management of the Company has developed a strategy, which it believes will accomplish this objective through short-term related party loans and additional equity funding, which will enable the Company to operate for the coming year.
 
7

 
These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

2.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The interim financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP") have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

These interim financial statements follow the same significant accounting policies and methods of application as the Company's annual financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2004.

These statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the information contained therein. However, the results of operations for the interim periods may not be indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-KSB for the year ended September 30, 2004.

Accounting Methods

The Company recognizes income and expenses based on the accrual method of accounting.

Dividend Policy

The Company has not yet adopted a policy regarding payment of dividends.

Financial and Concentrations Risk

The Company does not have any concentration or related financial credit risk except that cash is maintained in banks over the insured amounts of $100,000, however, the amounts are maintained in banks of high quality.

Income Taxes

The Company utilizes the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the liability method deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between financial reporting and the tax bases of the assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect, when the differences are expected to reverse. An allowance against deferred tax assets is recorded, when it is more likely than not, that such tax benefits will not be realized.

At December 31, 2004, the income tax benefits are unknown because of a substantial change in shareholders.

Revenue Recognition

The Company is in the business of exploring for, developing, producing and selling crude oil and natural gas. Crude oil revenue is recognized when the product is taken from the storage tanks on the lease and delivered to the purchaser. Natural gas revenues are recognized when the product is delivered into a third party pipeline downstream of the lease. Occasionally the Company may sell specific leases and the gain or loss associated with these transactions will be shown separately from the profit or loss from the operations or sales of oil and gas products.

Advertising and Market Development

The Company expenses advertising and market development costs as incurred.
 
8

 
Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic net income (loss) per share amounts are computed based on the weighted average number of shares actually outstanding. Diluted net income (loss) per share amounts are computed using the weighted average number of common shares and common equivalent shares outstanding as if shares had been issued on the exercise of the common share rights unless, the exercise becomes antidilutive and then only the basic per share amounts are shown in the report.

Financial Instruments

Fair Values

The fair values of the Corporation's accounts receivables, loan receivable - related parties, accounts payable, accounts payable - related parties, note and accrued interest payable and convertible debenture approximate their carrying values due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.

Interest Rate Price Risk

The interest rate price risk is due to fixed interest rates on the convertible debenture and loan payable.

Environmental Requirements

At the report date environmental requirements related to the mineral claims acquired are unknown and therefore an estimate of any future cost cannot be made.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company does not expect that the adoption of other recent accounting pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial statements.

Estimates and Assumptions

Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of the assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could vary from the estimates that were assumed in preparing these financial statements.

3.
Oil and Gas Properties

The Company has acquired a 80% interest in three oil and gas properties, after a farmout agreement on February 25, 2005, the Company's interest could be reduced to 40%. The three properties are located in North Central Alberta, Canada with a life of 15 years for $111,392. The terms include certain commitments related to oil sand leases which require the payments of rents as long as the leases are non-producing. As of December 31, 2004, the payments due under this commitment are as follows:

2006

2007

The Government of Alberta owns this land and Deep Well has acquired the rights to perform oil and gas activities on these lands. These leases are for 15 years and if Deep Well meets the conditions of the 15-year leases Deep Well will then be permitted to drill on and produce oil from the land into perpetuity.

The Company follows the successful efforts method of accounting for costs of oil and gas properties. Under this method, acquisition costs of oil and gas properties and costs of drilling and equipping development wells are capitalized. Costs of drilling exploratory wells are initially capitalized and, if subsequently determined to be unsuccessful, are charged to expenses. All other exploration costs, including geological and geophysical costs and carrying and maintenance cost, are charged to exploration expenses when incurred. Producing properties, non-producing and unproven properties are assessed annually, or more frequently as economic events indicate, for potential impairment.

9


This consists of comparing the carrying value of the asset with the asset's expected future undiscounted cash flows without interest costs. Estimates of expected future cash flows represent management's best estimate based on reasonable and supportable assumptions. Proven oil and gas properties are reviewed for impairment on a field-by-field basis. In addition, management evaluates the carrying value of non-producing properties and may deem them impaired for lack of drilling activities. No impairment losses were recognized for the three months ended December 31, 2004 (2004 - $nil).

Capitalized costs of proved oil and gas properties are depleted using the unit-of-production method when the property is placed in production.

Substantially all of the Company's oil and gas activities are conducted jointly with others. The accounts reflect only the Company's proportionate interest in such activities.

4.
Notes and Accrued Interest Payable

The Company has loans outstanding of $116,977 due on demand bearing interest at 12%, which includes accrued interest payable to December 31, 2004.

5.
Convertible Debenture

Convertible debenture

Convertible debenture
 
$
1,000,000
 

A $1,000,000 unsecured convertible debenture was issued during the fiscal 2004 year. The convertible debenture bears interest at 8.5% per annum and is due on September 6, 2007. The debenture is convertible at the option of the debenture holder into fully paid, conversion shares which consist of one common share and one common stock purchase warrant.

Each warrant is convertible to one common share. The common shares have a par value of $0.001 and the warrants are convertible as follows:

- October 6, 2004 to September 6, 2005 at $1.00 per warrant
- September 7, 2005 to September 6, 2006 at $1.50 per warrant
- September 7, 2006 to September 6, 2007 at $2.00 per warrant

If at any time during the term of the debenture the average bid and ask price of the Company's common shares is three dollars ($3.00) per share or more for thirty (30) consecutive calendar days, the Company will have the option to convert the outstanding debenture into common stock at the price set forth above.

No value has been recognized on the conversion rights because the market rate of Deep Well shares was less then the conversion rate. The convertible debenture was fully paid in October 2005.

6.
Significant Transactions With Related Parties

Officers, directors, their families, and their controlled entities, have acquired 25% of the Company's outstanding common capital stock. Included in the accounts payable and accrued liabilities are amounts payable to related parties of $165,235 resulting from directors fees and expenses paid for the Company. The amounts due are unsecured, non-interest bearing and have no fixed terms of repayment.

The Company has demand loans due from related parties of $473,694, which bear no interest.

7.
Share Capital

On February 27, 2004, the Board of Directors unanimously approved a forward stock split of common stock at a ratio of two (2) shares for every one (1) share held. The forward split will become effective on March 10, 2004. After the split, the Company will have 12,337,156 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. Prior to the effective date of the split, the Company will have 6,168,578 shares of common stock outstanding.

10

Subsequent Event – Acquisition of Northern Alberta Oil Ltd.

On June 7, 2005, Deep Well completed its acquisition of Northern Alberta Oil Ltd. by way of a share exchange agreement where by Deep Well would acquire all the outstanding common shares of Northern by giving up newly issued restricted shares of Deep Well common stock. In addition Deep Well also has the exclusive option to acquire all of the preferred shares of Northern through a similar share exchange. As consideration Northern shareholders will receive three (3) shares of Deep Well common stock for every one (1) share of Northern common stock and each preferred Northern stock holder will receive thirty (30) shares of Deep Well common stock for every one (1) preferred Northern share held. The Northern preferred shares convert into 12,975,000 Deep Well common shares.

The acquisition of Northern allows Deep Well to consolidate its oil sands holdings in the Sawn Lake Oil Sands Project in North - Central Alberta, Canada.

The acquisition of Northern Alberta Oil Ltd. will be accounted for using the purchase method in accordance with SFAS No. 141 "Business Combinations" ("SFAS No. 141). Under the purchase method of accounting, the assets and liabilities of Northern are recorded at their fair values at the acquisition date. The financial statements and reported results of operations of Deep Well issued after the completion of the acquisition reflect these fair values, with the results of Northern being included within the reported results from June 7, 2005.

As the transaction was not completed until June 7, 2005 Northern's operations have not been included with Deep Well at December 31, 2004.

Accounting for the Acquisition

As per SFAS No. 141 the measurement of the consideration is based on the fair value of the consideration given or the fair value of the net assets acquired, whichever is more clearly evident and, thus, more reliably measurable. In this case the quoted market price of the equity security issued (Deep Well shares) issued to effect the business combination has been used to estimate the fair value of the net assets of the entity after recognizing the possible effects of price fluctuations, quantities traded, issue costs, and the like. In this case the Company examined two private placements on March 10, 2005 and August 12, 2005 to determine of any discount to the share price would be needed. Both of the private placements consisted of shares and attached warrants therefore the Black Scholes pricing model was used to determined how to allocate the private placement proceeds to the shares and warrants. The results showed that a discount rate between 37% and 65% would need to be used. The Deep Well share price on June 7, 2005 was $0.39 and with a discount rate of 65% the price per share would be $0.14.

Included in the consideration is the right to convert the Northern preferred share into 30 Deep Well shares. This consideration was determinable at the date of acquisition and has been included as part of the consideration given up as it was determined, beyond a reasonable doubt, that these shares would be converted in the future. The exchange agreement stipulated that Deep Well had the option to 'call' the shares after 35 months and the preferred shareholders had the option to 'put' those shares to Deep Well anytime within 36 months. It was Deep Well's intention to 'call' the shares if the preferred shareholders did not exercise their 'put' within the 36 months. At June 30, 2005 the preferred shares had not been converted but the amount has been recorded as a "Provision for conversion of preferred share rights of subsidiary" and included in Shareholders' Equity. However, as of April 2007, all the Northern preferred shares have been converted into Deep Well common stock.

Total consideration, including the option to acquire Northern preferred shares in a share exchange was approximately $4.3 million at the price of $0.14 per share of Deep Well's common stock, as analyzed below:

On June 7, 2005 Deep Well (parent), through its acquisition of Northern (subsidiary), acquired a net 80% working interest in three Peace River Oil Sands Development Leases, one Oil Sands permit and one Petroleum and Natural Gas License for a total of 38.5 sections covering 24,354 gross acres (9,856 gross hectares). Through this acquisition the Company increased its position in the Peace River Oil Sands to 43,964 gross acres (17,792 gross hectares). Of the total acreage, 6.5 sections are classified as the Oil Sands Permit and Petroleum and Natural Gas License, and was held by an injunction related to a court proceeding involving Northern and Classic Energy Inc. The permit and license have now been released and as of November 15, 2005 were transferred to Northern.

On November 15, 2005, the Company, and its subsidiary, entered into an agreement to amend a farmout agreement with Signet Energy Inc., a private company, owned by Surge Global Energy, Inc. Under this new amended farmout agreement Signet Energy Inc., as operator, assumed the farmout obligations, including completing, at its expense, the drilling of 10 wells to earn up to a 40% working interest in the Sawn Lake Oil Sands Project.

On November 15, 2005, as part of the settlement of a legal action the Company, and its subsidiary, and Surge, agreed to amend a farmout agreement signed on February 25, 2005, between the Company, and Surge, that had previously been terminated by the Company (disclosed on Form 8-K on September 29, 2005). The amendments to the agreement provided that; (1) all conditions of the farmout agreement will be deemed to have been satisfied on September 25, 2005; (2) the earning period (i.e. the period during which Signet has to drill 10 wells) under the agreement will be extended until February 25, 2008; (3) Signet will have until September 25, 2006 to drill an option well; (4) an additional 6.5 sections of land will be added to the land subject to the agreement; (5) Signet will pay the Company $1,000,000 on November 15, 2005 in satisfaction of the prospect fee outstanding, instead of after drilling the second well as stated in the farmout agreement, and (6) no shares of Surge Global Energy Inc. will be issued to the Company. Instead, the Company or its subsidiaries will receive 7,550,000 common shares of Signet Energy Inc., bringing the Company's ownership in its farmout partner to approximately 17.84% as of September 30, 2006.

Sales of Unregistered Securities

On March 10, 2005, Deep Well closed on a transaction pursuant to a certain Securities Purchase Agreement ("SPA"), with two accredited investors pursuant to which we sold an aggregate of (i) 1,875,000 shares of Deep Well's common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a purchase price of $0.40 per share, and (ii) 750,000 warrants to purchase shares of Deep Well common stock, for an aggregate purchase price of $750,000. Each of the warrants is exercisable from March 10, 2005 until March 9, 2010, at an exercise price equal to $0.50 per share. In connection with the SPA, a finder's fee of $75,000 was paid and 37,500 warrants were issued. The exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events, as provided in the warrants, and as a result of the issuance of common stock on May 25, 2007 and pursuant to the SPA and Form of Warrant dated March 10, 2005 entered into by and among the Company and the investors (the "Warrant Holders"), the Company issued an adjustment to the Warrant Holders. The original warrant dated March 10, 2005 contained a price adjustment if the Company sells, issues or grants additional shares of its common stock at a price per share less than the exercise price. In the event of a price adjustment, the number of shares exercisable under the warrant would also increase. Therefore, the exercise price of the original warrant has been adjusted from $0.50 to $0.40 per common share. The Company has granted the Warrant Holders new warrants to purchase 984,375 shares of the Company's common stock at an adjusted exercise price of $0.40 per share under the same terms as the original warrant. In addition, Deep Well entered into a Registration Rights Agreement ("RRA") with the investors, dated as of March 10, 2005, pursuant to which Deep Well is obligated to prepare and file a registration statement no later than 45 days after the closing date registering the number of shares of our common stock which is at least equal to (i) the aggregate number of shares of common stock issued under the SPA plus (ii) 125% of the aggregate number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants. Deep Well must use its reasonable best efforts to cause the registration statement to become effective as soon as practicable following the filing, but in no event later than 120 days after the closing date. If the registration statement is not filed within 45 days after the closing date or declared effective within the time specified in the preceding paragraph, Deep Well is required to make payments to the investors equal to 2% of the purchase price and an additional 2% of the purchase price for each subsequent 30-day period as to which the registration statement has not been filed or declared effective. Effective on January 22, 2007, and filed on form 8-K on January 31, 2007, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and Release of All Claims (the "Settlement Agreement") with the investors who were in receipt of the above issued shares with respect to allegations made by the investors that the Company had breached the SPA and the RRA.

The Settlement Agreement provides, without any party acknowledging any liability, for:

-
the amendment of the SPA to delete certain restrictions on the Company's ability to enter into any future financings;
-
the termination of the RRA;
-
the issuance to the Investors of an aggregate of 1,600,000 (one million six hundred thousand) shares of common stock of the Company (the "Shares"), including the granting of certain piggyback registration rights related thereto; and
-
the full and final settlement of all existing or potential claims between the Company and the Investors arising under the SPA and the RRA.

Legal Actions

I.G.M. Resources Corp vs. Deep Well Oil & Gas, Inc. et al

On March 10, 2005, I.G.M. Resources Corp. ("IGM") filed against Classic Energy Inc., 979708 Alberta Ltd., Deep Well, Nearshore Petroleum Corporation, Mr. Steven P. Gawne, Rebekah Gawne, Gawne Family Trust, 1089144 Alberta Ltd., John F. Brown, Diane Lynn McClaflin, Cassandra Doreen Brown, Elissa Alexandra Brown, Brown Family Trust, Priority Exploration Ltd., Northern Alberta Oil Ltd. and Gordon Skulmoski a Statement of Claim in the Court of Queen's Bench of Alberta Judicial District of Calgary. This suit is a part of a series of lawsuits or actions undertaken by IGM against some of the other above defendants.

IGM was and still is a minority shareholder of 979708 Alberta Ltd. ("979708"). 979708 was in the business of discovering, assembling and acquiring oil and gas prospects. In 2002 and 2003, 979708 acquired oil and gas prospects in the Sawn Lake area of Alberta. On or about the 14th of July, 2003 all or substantially all the assets of 979708 were sold to Classic Energy Inc. IGM claims the value of the assets sold was far in excess of the value paid for those assets. On April 23, 2004 Northern Alberta Oil Ltd., purchased Classic Energy Inc.'s assets some of which are under dispute by IGM. On June 7, 2005 Deep Well acquired all of the common shares of Northern Alberta Oil Ltd. thereby giving Deep Well an indirect beneficial interest in the assets IGM is claiming an interest in.

IGM seeks an order setting aside the transaction and returning the assets to 979708, compensation in the amount of $15,000,000 Cdn, a declaration of trust declaring that Classic Energy Inc., Northern Alberta Oil Ltd. and Deep Well Oil & Gas, Inc., hold all of the assets acquired from 979708 and any property acquired by use of such assets, or confidential information of 979708, in trust for the Plaintiff.

This lawsuit has been stayed pending the out come of the other litigation by IGM against the other defendants. The Company believes the claims are without merit and will vigorously defend them.

Hardie & Kelly vs. Brown et al

On June 2, 2006, Hardie and Kelly, Trustee of the Estate of John Forbes Brown filed against John Forbes Brown, a bankrupt, Diane Lynn McClaflin, 1089144 Alberta Ltd., and Deep Well an Amended Statement of Claim in the Court of Queen's Bench of Alberta Judicial District of Calgary. John Forbes Brown was a former office and then sub-contractor of Deep Well before and during the time he was assigned into bankruptcy on July 12, 2004. The Plaintiff claims, in addition to other issues unrelated to Deep Well, that John Forbes Brown received 4,812,500 Deep Well shares as a result of his employment in Deep Well and that John Forbes Brown improperly assigned these shares to the numbered company as a ruse entered into on the eve of insolvency by John Forbes Brown in order to facilitate the hiding of assets from his creditors and the trustee of his bankruptcy. The Plaintiff further claims that on August 23, 2004 John Forbes Brown advised the Plaintiff that he in fact owned the above shares and did not disclose this ownership in his bankruptcy statement of affairs filed. The Plaintiff further claims that John Forbes Brown would lodge the said shares with his lawyer until such time as these shares could be transferred to the Plaintiff. The Plaintiff further claims that unbeknownst to them John Forbes Brown surreptitiously removed the shares from his lawyer's office and delivered them to Deep Well so that Deep Well could cancel them. The Plaintiff claims that Deep Well conspired with John Forbes Brown to defraud the creditors of John Forbes Brown by taking receipt and cancelling the said shares. The Plaintiff claims that consideration paid by Deep Well for the said shares was invested in the home owned by John Forbes Brown and his wife. The Plaintiff seeks; (1) an accounting of the proceeds and benefits derived by the dealings of the shares; (2) the home owned by John Forbes Brown and his wife, to be held in trust on behalf of the Plaintiff and an accounting of proceeds related to this trust; (3) the Plaintiff seeks damages from the Defendants because of their actions; (4) a judgement for $15,612,645 Cdn; (5) an order to sell John Forbes Brown's home; and (6) interest and costs.

16


Deep Well believes it did not conspire with John Forbes Brown to defraud John Forbes Brown's creditors and further Deep Well did not receive nor give John Forbes Brown any consideration in regards to the cancelling of said shares. The Company plans to vigorously defend itself against the Plaintiff's claims.

Menno Wiebe and Jacobean Resource International vs. Deep Well Oil & Gas, Inc. et al

On October 23, 2006, Menno Wiebe and Jacobean Resources International served Deep Well, Doe individuals and Roe Corporations with a Complaint and Summons filed in the United States of America, District Court of Clark County, Nevada. The Complaint alleges a breach of contract in which the Plaintiffs are seeking monetary damages in excess of $10,000 plus an order directing Defendants to issue 56,500 shares of Deep Well stock to Plaintiffs. The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses to the Plaintiff's claims and intends to enter into mediation, as called for in the contract with Menno Wiebe.

Signet Energy, Inc. vs. Deep Well Oil & Gas, Inc., Northern Alberta Oil Ltd., Deep Well Oil & Gas (Alberta) Ltd.

On June 1, 2007, Signet Energy, Inc. (herein after referred to as "Signet") filed against us with a Statement of Claim filed in Court of Alberta, District of Calgary. The plaintiff claims that the defendants must pay all rentals and other payments required to maintain the farmout lands in good standing. The plaintiff further claims that they paid all rentals and other amounts required to maintain the farmout land in good standing on behalf of the defendants and invoiced the defendants for the rental amounts and that the defendants refused or neglected to reimburse their proportionate share of the rental amounts and therefore the defendants have been enriched to the detriment of the plaintiff by the payment of the rental amounts. The plaintiff seeks, 1) payment in full of $63,269.12 in Canadian funds for the rental amounts owed, 2) interest, 3) costs of the action, and 4) such further and other relief as the court deems just.

On June 25, 2007, the Company served Signet with a Statement of Defence and Counterclaim issued in the Alberta Court District of Calgary. The defendants state in their defence that, 1) any and all such expenditures are required to be approved in advance, 2) no such approval was given, and that the plaintiff has failed to properly account to the defendants for all such expenditures made, 3) the amount for which the plaintiff is entitled to reimbursement is approximately $40,000 in Canadian funds and 4) if the plaintiff is indebted to the defendants in an amount in excess of the amount claimed by the plaintiff then the defendants are entitled to set off against any amounts that may be owed to the plaintiff. The defendants by counterclaim seek, 1) the proportionate share of fees and expenses incurred in preserving, protecting and advancing the rights of the parties to the Farmout lands totaling $101,000 in Canadian funds, 2) a declaration that the plaintiffs by Counterclaim are entitled to set off the amount of any judgment in favor of the defendant by Counterclaim against the amounts found to be owing to them, 3) a declaration that the Farmout Agreement be terminated, 4) interest, 5) such further and other relief as the court deems just, and 6) costs of the action.

The Company is defending all of the above legal actions and believes that at their conclusion that the Company and its subsidiaries will be cleared of any potential liabilities.

General Overview

We are an emerging independent junior oil and gas exploration and development company headquartered in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. The Company’s immediate corporate focus is to develop the existing land base that it presently controls in the Peace River Oil Sands area in North Central Alberta. Our principal office is located at 510 Royal Bank Building, 10117 Jasper Avenue, Edmonton, Alberta T5J 1W8, our telephone number is (780) 409-8144 and our fax number is (780) 409-8146. Deep Well Oil & Gas, Inc. is a Nevada corporation and trades on the pink sheets under the symbol DWOG. We maintain a website at www.deepwelloil.com.

Operations

The Company and its subsidiaries beneficially own an 80% working interest in 57 contiguous sections of oil sands leases and 6.5 sections of oil sands permits in the Sawn Lake block of the Peace River Oil Sands area located in Alberta, Canada. The Company has retained an additional 40% working interest in another 6 sections of which Signet Energy Inc. has earned 40% from the Company. The leases and permits cover 43,964 gross acres or 17,792 gross hectares. The remaining working interest partners are Andora Energy Corporation (herein after referred to as “Andora”) with a 10% working interest and 1132559 Alberta Ltd. with a 10% working interest. Andora is a subsidiary of Pan Orient Energy Corp. who was the previous owner of their 10%.

On February 25, 2005, we entered into a farmout agreement with Signet Energy Inc. (formerly “Surge Global Energy (Canada) Ltd” herein after referred to as “Signet”. This agreement allowed Signet to earn up to a 40% working interest in the farmout lands (50% of the Company’s share). Among other things the agreement called for Signet to drill 10 wells, pay the Company a $2,000,000 prospect fee and give us 33.33% of the outstanding shares of Surge on the day the agreement was signed. On November 15, 2005, the Company and its farmout partner Signet amended the farmout agreement and further agreed to acknowledge the original farmout agreement. In accordance with the farmout agreement, Signet, must drill 10 wells, based on a rolling option to drill, prior to February 25, 2008, at no cost to the Company, to fully earn their 40% working interest in the project. In addition, the Company owns approximately 17.84% of the common shares of its farmout partner Signet. Under the farmout agreement with Signet, notice to the Company of Signet’s intent to drill the next option well was due by December 16, 2006, and accordingly, Signet’s right to earn additional interest in the Sawn Lake acreage from the Company has expired.

A total of three horizontal wells were drilled on the Sawn Lake Property during 2005 and 2006 and a fourth location was prepared for drilling as follows:

The 1st test well drilled under the farmout agreement (at surface location 1-36-091-13W5) was successfully drilled and cased in late October of 2005. This horizontal well was drilled to a total length of 1,583 meters with a vertical depth of 752 meters within the Bluesky oil sands zone. On March 23, 2006 our farmout partner and operator, Signet, announced that the first horizontal test well on our Sawn Lake property had been drilled and the reservoir had tested positive for cold flow crude oil pumping capability. Initial test results by third parties have concluded that the initial oil samples taken early in the flow period had been analyzed and determined to be 10.7 degree API with 3.1% sulphur. As part of the November 15, 2005 Settlement, the Company granted Signet a 40% interest in 6 sections, pertaining to the first well drilled at Sawn Lake. Currently the well has been suspended for further evaluation.

18


The 2nd well drilled under the farmout agreement (at surface location 4-32-091-12W5) began drilling on August 13, 2006. This was the first of three additional wells that Signet was to drill over the next 90 days in the Bluesky Formation of the Sawn Lake area. This horizontal well was successfully drilled and cased in August 2006 to a total length of 1,461 meters with a vertical depth of 668 meters within the Bluesky oil sands zone. Subsequent to the drilling and logging operations, tubing was run in preparation for potential Bluesky oil production. As reported by our farmout partner and operator, the well evaluation of the log analysis confirmed 23 meters of net oil pay, average oil saturation of 78 percent, API gravity in the range of 6.7 to 7.6 degrees, permeability of up to 8 Darcies, average porosity of 30% and viscosity between 263,000 and 475,000 centistokes extrapolated at 20 degrees Celsius and between 4.6 and 5.35 centistokes extrapolated at 250 degrees Celsius. The operator reported to us that the initial production tests for cold flow pumping capability were negative. Currently the well has been suspended for further evaluation.

The 3rd well drilled under the farmout agreement (at surface location 7-30-091-12W5) began drilling on August 31, 2006. This was the second of three additional wells that Signet was to drill over the next 90 days in the Bluesky Formation of the Sawn Lake area. This horizontal well was successfully drilled and cased in September 2006 to a total length of 1,437 meters with a vertical depth of 654 meters within the Bluesky oil sands zone. As reported by our farmout partner and operator, the well evaluation of the log analysis confirmed 22 meters of net oil pay, average oil saturation of 68 percent, API gravity in the range of 6.2 to 6.8 degrees, permeability of up to 8 Darcies, average porosity of 30% and viscosity of 290,000 centistokes extrapolated at 18 degrees Celsius 7.93 centistokes extrapolated at 250 degrees Celsius.The operator reported to us that the initial production tests for cold flow pumping capability were negative. Currently the well has been suspended for further evaluation.

The proposed 4th well to be drilled under the farmout agreement at surface location 13-29-091-12W5 was not drilled since it was determined by the operator that it would not provide any additional geological information in its delineation of the Sawn Lake Reservoir beyond that of the two recently drilled wells in the same vicinity.

On October 12, 2006 the 4-32 and 7-30 wells along with the 1-36 well were suspended. Signet had undertaken a mapping of the reservoir to assist in its delineation for any future development of the Sawn Lake property. The first three wells were drilled in the most heavily documented portion of the Sawn Lake lands. Although, as indicated by Signet, the preliminary results from the last 2 wells indicated a lack of cold flow production from well 4-32 and 7-30, the compartmentalized nature of the reservoir and varying characteristics of these compartments may show different results with further evaluation.

In December 2006, the Company notified Signet that it was disputing Signet earning an additional 12 sections, as a result of drilling the 2nd and 3rd wells, because Signet failed to properly complete the wells by not conducting the production testing as reasonably required under the farmout agreement. The farmout agreement states that the sustained production test must be of sufficient duration to establish to the Farmor’s reasonable satisfaction the initial productivity of the earning well. Signet’s view is that it has earned the 12 sections pursuant to the terms of the farmout agreement. These 12 sections are subject to selection in accordance with the provisions of the farmout agreement.

Plan of Operations over the next 12 months

The Company’s current and near term development plan is to use the funds recently acquired to execute the Company’s plan of development for the Sawn Lake Project. The first stage of the plan will include updated well testing, analysis and engineering study. The Company expects to execute a 2 to 3 well winter drilling program. The focus of the Company’s drilling program is to further define the heavy oil reservoir to determine the best technology under which oil can be produced from the Sawn Lake project in order to initiate production to generate an early positive cash flow.

Reorganization and Raising Capital

On February 19, 2003 the Company filed a Petition for Relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court in and for the Eastern District of New York titled In re: Allied Devices Corporation, et al., Chapter 11, Case No. 03-80962-511 (the “Bankruptcy Action”). On September 10, 2003, after notice to all creditors and a formal hearing, U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Melanie L. Cyganowski issued an “Order Confirming Liquidating Plan of Reorganization” in the Bankruptcy Action. In conjunction with that Bankruptcy Order, the Company’s liabilities, among other things, were paid off and extinguished.

The Company has the funds anticipated to complete its near term business plan. In addition to the cash in the bank the Company expects to receive significant cash by virtue of the fact that the Company exercised its dissenting rights, in regards to the Andora Energy Corporation’s acquisition of Signet on September 11, 2007, for its 17.84% of Signet’s issued and outstanding shares. We anticipate that, if needed, we will raise funds during the next twelve months through private placements of our common stock under exemptions from the registration requirements provided by Canadian, United States and state and provincial securities laws. The purchasers and manner of issuance will be determined according to our financial needs and the available exemptions. We also note that if we issue more shares of our common stock, then our stockholders may experience dilution in the value per share of their common stock. We may not be able to raise sufficient funding from stock sales for long term operations and, if so, we may be forced to delay our business plans until adequate funding is obtained. We believe debt financing will not be an alternative for funding in the exploration stage of our Company due to the risky nature of business. The lack of tangible assets, until such time as an economically viability can be demonstrated, places debt financing beyond the credit-worthiness required by most lenders.

Significant Changes in Number of Employees

The Company currently has one full time employee, two part time employees and four prime subcontractors. We expect to hire from time to time, independent consultants and contractors during the stages of implementing our plans.

On October 1, 2007 the Company entered into a Consulting Agreement, effective September 20, 2007, with Mr. Edward A. Howard, a Geologist and Palynologist with over 40 years of heavy oil experience, to assist in the further exploitation and development of the Company’s Sawn Lake project.

Mr. Cyrus James Spaulding, Chief Operating Officer of Northern Alberta Oil Ltd. a wholly owned subsidiary of Deep Well Oil & Gas, Inc., resigned from his position as an officer of the Company, effective September 21, 2007. Mr. Spaulding’s existing employment agreement with the Company has been terminated in connection with his resignation.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

On June 7, 2005, Deep Well entered into certain share exchange agreements (the “Agreements”) with the shareholders of Northern pursuant to which Deep Well previously acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Northern, and incorporated herein by reference as exhibit 10.3. In addition, pursuant to the Agreements, Deep Well received options to acquire, in exchange for shares of common stock of Deep Well, 100% of the issued and outstanding preferred shares of Northern, while the holders of such preferred shares received the right to require the Company to purchase such preferred shares in exchange for shares of common stock of Deep Well. As of April 5, 2007 all of the holders of such preferred shares of Northern have exercised their options in exchange for restricted shares of common stock of Deep Well. In accordance with the terms and conditions of the Agreements, Deep Well has now completed the acquisition of acquiring 100% of the preferred shares of Northern in exchange for 12,975,000 restricted common stock of Deep Well. In connection therewith, Deep Well had previously disclosed the issuance of 7,575,000 shares of its restricted common stock to acquire the Northern preferred shares as disclosed in the previously filed 10-KSB. The restricted shares of common stock of Deep Well, issued in exchange for the Northern preferred shares, the shares were issued pursuant to Section 4(2) of the 1993 Act.

On July 11, 2007 the Company completed a private placement of 323,333 units at a price of $0.60 per unit for $194,000. Each unit consists of one common share and one common share purchase warrant and another twelve one-hundredths common share purchase warrant (“Special Warrant”). Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one additional common share at a price of $0.90 per common share for a period of three years from the date of closing. Each Special Warrant entitles the holder to purchase a common share at a price of $1.20 for a period of five years from the date of closing.

If the Warrant Certificate becomes mutilated, lost, destroyed or stolen:

the Corporation shall, subject to subsection 2.3(b) hereof, issue and deliver a new Warrant Certificate of like date and tenor as the one mutilated, lost, destroyed or stolen, in exchange for and in place of and upon cancellation of such mutilated, lost, destroyed or stolen Warrant Certificate; and

4


ARTICLE 3
 
EXERCISE OF THE WARRANT
 
3.1
No Registration under U.S. Securities Act
 
The Warrants may not be exercised within the United States, or by or on behalf of a “U.S. Person” (as defined in Regulation S under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”)), nor will certificates representing Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants be delivered in the United States, except pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and exemptions from applicable state securities laws. Any person who proposes to exercise a Warrant shall provide to the Corporation, as contemplated in Appendix 2, either (i) written certification that, among other things, the Warrant is not being exercised within the United States or by or on behalf of a U.S. Person, (ii) a written opinion of counsel or other evidence satisfactory to the Corporation to the effect that the issuance of Common Shares upon exercise of such Warrant is not required to be registered under the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or (iii) written confirmation by the person exercising the Warrant that it is the original purchaser thereof and reaffirming, as of the date of such exercise, the representations, warranties made by it in the subscription agreement pursuant to which it purchased the Warrant. Common Shares issuable upon exercise of Warrants by a person in the United States or by or on behalf of a U.S. Person may, if so determined by the Corporation in its sole discretion, bear a legend restricting transfer.
 
3.2
Method of Exercise of The Warrant
 
The Holder may exercise the right hereby conferred on the Holder to acquire Common Shares (subject to the provisions of this Article 3) by:
 
(a)
duly completing and executing the Warrant Exercise Form attached hereto as Appendix 2; and
 
(b)
certifying that the Holder or (if different) the recipient of the Common Shares to be issued upon exercise of the Warrant either: (i) is not (a) a "U.S. Person", (b) exercising the Warrant(s) on behalf of a "U.S. Person", and (c) in the United States at the time that the Warrant(s) are exercised and did not execute or deliver the Warrant Exercise Form in the United States; or (ii) at or prior to the time of such exercise, has delivered to the Corporation a written opinion of counsel or other evidence satisfactory to the Corporation to the effect that the issuance of Common Shares upon such exercise is not required to be registered under the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws; or (iii) is the original purchaser of the Warrants and confirms as of the date of such exercise, the representations, warranties and agreements made by it in the subscription agreement pursuant to which the Warrant was purchased by it; and
 
(c)
surrendering this certificate, together with the Holder’s certified cheque or a bank draft, money order or wire transfer in the full amount of the total aggregate Exercise Price of the Common Shares being purchased, together with the duly completed and executed Warrant Exercise Form, to the Corporation at its offices,
 
at any time up until the Time of Expiry. This Warrant Certificate shall be deemed to be surrendered only upon personal delivery thereof to, or if sent by mail or other means of transmission, upon actual receipt thereof by, the Corporation at its offices.

3.3
Effect of Exercise of the Warrant
 
(a)
Upon surrender and payment as aforesaid the Common Shares so subscribed for shall be issued as fully paid and non-assessable shares, free from all liens, charges and encumbrances and the Holder shall become the Holder of record of such Common Shares on the date of such surrender and payment;
 
5


(b)
Within ten (10) business days after surrender and payment as aforesaid, the Corporation shall forthwith cause the issuance of and mail to the Holder a certificate for the Common Shares purchased as aforesaid;
 
(c)
Notwithstanding anything herein contained including any adjustment provided for in Article 4, the Corporation shall not be required, upon the exercise of any Warrants, to issue fractions of Common Shares or to distribute certificates which evidence fractional Common Shares. Any fractional Common Shares that would otherwise be issuable upon the exercise of Warrants shall be cancelled by the Corporation without compensation to the Holder thereof; and
 
(d)
Notwithstanding anything herein contained, no Common Shares will be issued pursuant to the exercise of any Warrant if the issuance of such Common Shares would constitute a violation of the securities laws of any applicable jurisdiction or the requirements of any applicable stock exchange, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that any of the Warrants are exercised prior to expiry of any hold period or other resale restriction placed thereon by such laws or requirements, the certificates evidencing the Common Shares thereby issued will bear such legend as is required under applicable securities laws and that, in the opinion of legal counsel to the Corporation, is necessary in order to avoid a violation of any such laws or requirements.
 
3.4
Subscription for Less than Entitlement
 
The Holder may subscribe for and purchase a number of Common Shares less than the number which it is entitled to purchase pursuant to the surrendered Warrant Certificate. In the event of any purchase of a number of Common Shares less than the number which can be purchased pursuant to the Warrant Certificate, the Corporation shall forthwith issue and deliver to the Holder a new Warrant Certificate containing the same terms and conditions as disclosed herein to purchase that number of Common Shares with respect to which such partial exercise did not apply.

3.5
Resale Restrictions
 
As the Corporation is not a reporting issuer in any jurisdiction of Canada, unless permitted under Canadian securities legislation, the Holder of this security must not trade the security in Canada and may have to hold the security for an indefinite period.
 
3.6
Expiration of the Warrant
 
After the Time of Expiry, all rights hereunder shall wholly cease and terminate and the Warrant Certificate and the Warrants shall be void and of no further force and effect.

6


ARTICLE 4
 
ADJUSTMENTS

4.1
Adjustment of Number of Common Shares
 
The acquisition rights in effect at any date attaching to the Warrants shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:

(a)
If and whenever at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Time of Expiry, any adjustment in the Exercise Price or in the calculation thereof pursuant to Section 4.2 shall occur as a result of:
 
(i)
an event referred to in subsection 4.2(a);
 
 
(ii)
the fixing by the Corporation of a record date for an event referred to in subsection 4.2(b); or
 
 
(iii)
the fixing by the Corporation of a record date for an event referred to in subsection 4.2(c) if such event constitutes the issue or distribution to the holders of all or substantially all of its outstanding Common Shares of:
 
 
(A)
Common Shares, or
 
 
(B)
securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares at less than the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on such record date, or
 
 
(C)
rights, options or warrants to acquire Common Shares at an exercise, exchange or conversion price per Common Share less than the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on such record date,
 
the number of Common Shares obtainable upon the subsequent exercise of the Warrant shall be adjusted simultaneously with the adjustment in the Exercise Price pursuant to Section 4.2 by multiplying the number of Common Shares theretofore obtainable on the exercise thereof immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after such date and the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to such date. To the extent that any adjustment in subscription rights occurs pursuant to this subsection 4.1(a) as a result of the distribution of securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares referred to in subsection 4.2(a) or as a result of the fixing by the Corporation of a record date for the distribution of rights, options or warrants referred to in subsection 4.2(b), the number of Common Shares purchasable upon exercise of a Warrant shall be readjusted immediately after the expiration of any relevant exchange, conversion or exercise right to the number of Common Shares which would be purchasable based upon the number of Common Shares actually issued and remaining issuable immediately after such expiration, and shall be further readjusted in such manner upon expiration of any further such right. To the extent that any such adjustment in subscription rights occurs pursuant to this subsection 4.1(a) as a result of the fixing by the Corporation of a record date for the distribution referred to in subsection 4.2(c) of rights, options or warrants or exchangeable or convertible securities, the number of Common Shares purchasable upon exercise of a Warrant shall be readjusted immediately after the expiration of any relevant exchange, conversion or exercise right to the number which would be purchasable pursuant to this subsection 4.1(a) if the fair market value of such rights, options or warrants or other exchangeable or convertible securities had been determined for the purposes of the adjustment pursuant to this subsection 4.1(a) on the basis of the number of Common Shares issued and remaining issuable immediately after such expiration, and shall be further readjusted in such manner upon expiration of any further right.
7



(b)
If and whenever at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Time of Expiry there is a reclassification of the Common Shares or a capital reorganization of the Corporation other than as described in subsection 4.2(a) or a consolidation, amalgamation or merger of the Corporation (including, without limitation, by way of plan of arrangement) with or into any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, or a sale or conveyance of the property and assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, any Warrantholder who has not exercised his right of acquisition prior to the effective date of such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, merger, sale or conveyance, upon the exercise of such right thereafter, shall be entitled to receive and shall accept, in lieu of the number of Common Shares then sought to be acquired by it, the kind and number of shares or other securities or property of the Corporation or of the body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity resulting from such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation or merger, or to which such sale or conveyance may be made, as the case may be, that such Holder would have been entitled to receive as a result of such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, merger, sale or conveyance, if, on the record date or the effective date thereof, as the case may be, the Warrantholder had been the registered Holder of the number of Common Shares to which the Holder was theretofore entitled upon exercise. If determined appropriate by the board of directors of the Corporation to give effect to or to evidence the provisions of this subsection 4.1(b), the Corporation, its successor, or such purchasing body corporate, partnership, trust or other entity, as the case may be, shall prior to or contemporaneously with any such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, merger, sale or conveyance, enter into an agreement or new Warrant Certificate which shall provide, to the extent possible, for the application of the provisions set forth in this Warrant Certificate with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Warrantholder to the end that the provisions set forth in this Warrant shall thereafter correspondingly be made applicable, as nearly as may reasonably be, with respect to any shares, other securities or property to which a Warrantholder is entitled on the exercise of its acquisition rights thereafter and upon entering into such new Warrant Certificate or agreement, the Corporation shall cease to have any obligations (including the obligation to issue any Common Shares) hereunder and the Holder shall cease to have any rights hereunder. Any Warrant Certificate or agreement entered into pursuant to the provisions of this subsection 4.1(b) shall be an agreement entered into pursuant to the provisions of Article 6. Any Warrant Certificate or agreement entered into between the Corporation, any successor to the Corporation or such purchasing body corporate, partnership, trust or other entity shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided in this Article 4 and which shall apply to successive reclassifications, reorganizations, consolidations, amalgamations, mergers, sales or conveyances.
 
8


4.2
Adjustment of Exercise Price
 
The Exercise Price in effect at any date attaching to the Warrants shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:

(a)
If and whenever after the date hereof and at any time prior to the Time of Expiry, the Corporation shall:
 
 
(i)
subdivide, divide or change its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of Common Shares;
 
 
(ii)
consolidate, reduce or combine its outstanding Common Shares into a lesser number of Common Shares;
 
 
(iii)
make any distribution, other than by way of Dividend Paid in the Ordinary Course, to the holders of all or substantially all of the outstanding Common Shares payable in Common Shares;
 
 
the Exercise Price in effect on the effective date of such events referred to in subsections 4.2(a)(i), 4.2(a)(ii)or 4.2(a)(iii) shall be adjusted to equal the price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such effective date by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to such date and the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares immediately after such date. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event referred to in this subsection 4.2(a) shall occur.
 
9

 
(b)
If and whenever at any time after the date hereof, the Corporation shall fix a record date which is prior to the Time of Expiry for the issue of rights, options or warrants to all or substantially all the holders of outstanding Common Shares under which such holders are entitled during a period expiring not more than sixty (60) days after the record date for such issue to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares, or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares, at a price per Common Share or having a conversion or exchange price per Common Share less than the Current Market Price per Common Share on such record date, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect on such record date by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date plus a number of Common Shares equal to the number arrived at by dividing the aggregate price of the total number of additional Common Shares offered for subscription or purchase, or the aggregate conversion or exchange price of the convertible securities so offered, by such Current Market Price per Common Share, and of which the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date plus the total number of additional Common Shares offered for subscription or purchase (or into which the convertible securities so offered are convertible or exchangeable). If by the terms of the rights, options or warrants referred to in this subsection 4.2(b), there is more than one purchase, conversion or exchange price per Common Share, the aggregate price of the total number of additional Common Shares offered for subscription or purchase, or the aggregate conversion or exchange price of the convertible securities so offered, shall be calculated for purposes of the adjustment on the basis of the lowest purchase, conversion or exchange price per Common Share, as the case may be. Any Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation. To the extent that any adjustment in Exercise Price occurs pursuant to this subsection 4.2(b) as a result of the fixing by the Corporation of a record date for the distribution of rights, options or warrants referred to in this subsection 4.2(b), the Exercise Price shall be readjusted immediately after the expiration of any relevant exchange, conversion or exercise right to the Exercise Price which would then be in effect based upon the number of Common Shares actually issued and remaining issuable after such expiration, and shall be further readjusted in such manner upon expiration of any further such right.
 
(c)
If and whenever at any time prior to the Time of Expiry, the Corporation shall fix a record date which is prior to the Time of Expiry for the issue or distribution to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares of:
 
 
(i)
shares of any class other than Common Shares (excluding Dividends Paid in the Ordinary Course);
 
(ii)
rights, options or warrants (excluding those referred to in subsection 4.2(b));
 
(iii)
evidences of its indebtedness; or
 
 
(iv)
any other property or assets (excluding Dividends Paid in the Ordinary Course);
 
then, and in each such case, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect on such record date by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by the Current Market Price on such record date, less the aggregate fair market value (as determined by the Corporation, which determination shall be conclusive) of such shares, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or assets so issued or distributed, and of which the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by such Current Market Price, and any Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed, and to the extent that such distribution is not so made, the Exercise Price shall then be readjusted to the Exercise Price which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed or to the Exercise Price which would then be in effect based upon such shares, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or assets actually distributed, as the case may be.

4.3
General Adjustments
 
(a)
If necessary, appropriate adjustments shall be made in the application of the provisions set forth in this Article 4 with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the holders of Warrants to the end that the provisions set forth in this Article 4 shall thereafter correspondingly be made applicable as nearly as may reasonably be possible in relation to any shares or other securities or property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of any Warrant. Any such adjustments shall be made by and set forth in an amendment to this Warrant Certificate hereto approved by the directors of the Corporation and shall for all purposes conclusively be deemed to be an appropriate adjustment.
 
(b)
If any case in which this Article 4 shall require that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after a record date for an event referred to herein, the Corporation may defer, until the occurrence of such event, issuing to the Holder of any Warrant exercised after such event the additional Common Shares issuable upon such conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such event before giving effect to such adjustment; provided, however, that the Corporation shall deliver to such Holder an appropriate instrument evidencing such Holder's right to receive such additional Common Shares upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment and the right to receive any distributions made on such additional Common Shares declared in favour of holders of record of Common Shares on and after the relevant date of exercise or such later date as such Holder would, but for the provisions of this subsection 4.3(b), have become the Holder of record of such additional Common Shares as a result of the exercise of the Warrants.
 
(c)
No adjustment in the Exercise Price or in the number of shares to be issued pursuant to the exercise of the Warrants shall be required unless such adjustment would result in a change of at least 1% in the Exercise Price then in effect or unless the number of shares to be issued would change by at least 1/100th of a share, provided, however, that any adjustments which, except for the provisions of this subsection 4.3(c) would otherwise have been required to be made, shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment.
 
(d)
The adjustments provided for in this Article 4 in the Exercise Price and in the number and classes of shares which are to be received on the exercise of Warrants are cumulative. After any adjustment pursuant to this Section, the term "Common Shares" where used in this Warrant shall be interpreted to mean the shares or other securities or property of the Corporation which, as a result of all prior adjustments pursuant to this Section, the Warrantholder is entitled to receive upon the exercise of his Warrant, and the number of Common Shares indicated in any subscription made pursuant to a Warrant shall be interpreted to mean the number and kind of securities or property which, as a result of all prior adjustments pursuant to this Article 4, a Warrantholder is entitled to receive upon the full exercise of a Warrant entitling the Holder thereof to purchase the number of Common Shares so indicated.
 
11


(e)
All securities and property which a Warrantholder is at the time in question entitled to receive on the full exercise of his Warrant, whether or not as a result of adjustments made pursuant to this Section, shall, for the purposes of the interpretation of this Warrant be deemed to be securities and property which such Warrantholder is entitled to purchase pursuant to such Warrant.
 
4.4
Notice of Adjustment
 
Whenever the number of Common Shares purchasable upon the exercise of each Warrant or the Exercise Price of such Common Shares is adjusted, as herein provided, the Corporation shall promptly send to the Warrantholder by first class mail, postage prepaid, notice of such adjustment or adjustments.
 
ARTICLE 5

Any person who proposes to exercise a Warrant shall provide to the Corporation, as contemplated in Appendix 2, either (i) written certification that, among other things, the Warrant is not being exercised within the United States or by or on behalf of a U.S. Person, (ii) a written opinion of counsel or other evidence satisfactory to the Corporation to the effect that the issuance of Common Shares upon exercise of such Warrant is not required to be registered under the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or (iii) written confirmation by the person exercising the Warrant that it is the original purchaser thereof and reaffirming, as of the date of such exercise, the representations, warranties made by it in the subscription agreement pursuant to which it purchased the Warrant. Common Shares issuable upon exercise of Warrants by a person in the United States or by or on behalf of a U.S. Person may, if so determined by the Corporation in its sole discretion, bear a legend restricting transfer.

4


3.2
Method of Exercise of The Warrant
 
The Holder may exercise the right hereby conferred on the Holder to acquire Common Shares (subject to the provisions of this Article 3) by:
 
(a)
duly completing and executing the Warrant Exercise Form attached hereto as Appendix 2; and
 
(b)
certifying that the Holder or (if different) the recipient of the Common Shares to be issued upon exercise of the Warrant either: (i) is not (a) a "U.S. Person", (b) exercising the Warrant(s) on behalf of a "U.S. Person", and (c) in the United States at the time that the Warrant(s) are exercised and did not execute or deliver the Warrant Exercise Form in the United States; or (ii) at or prior to the time of such exercise, has delivered to the Corporation a written opinion of counsel or other evidence satisfactory to the Corporation to the effect that the issuance of Common Shares upon such exercise is not required to be registered under the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws; or (iii) is the original purchaser of the Warrants and confirms as of the date of such exercise, the representations, warranties and agreements made by it in the subscription agreement pursuant to which the Warrant was purchased by it; and
 
(c)
surrendering this certificate, together with the Holder’s certified cheque or a bank draft, money order or wire transfer in the full amount of the total aggregate Exercise Price of the Common Shares being purchased, together with the duly completed and executed Warrant Exercise Form, to the Corporation at its offices,
 
at any time up until the Time of Expiry. This Warrant Certificate shall be deemed to be surrendered only upon personal delivery thereof to, or if sent by mail or other means of transmission, upon actual receipt thereof by, the Corporation at its offices.

3.3
Effect of Exercise of the Warrant
 
(a)
Upon surrender and payment as aforesaid the Common Shares so subscribed for shall be issued as fully paid and non-assessable shares, free from all liens, charges and encumbrances and the Holder shall become the Holder of record of such Common Shares on the date of such surrender and payment;

5


(b)
Within ten (10) business days after surrender and payment as aforesaid, the Corporation shall forthwith cause the issuance of and mail to the Holder a certificate for the Common Shares purchased as aforesaid;
 
(c)
Notwithstanding anything herein contained including any adjustment provided for in Article 4, the Corporation shall not be required, upon the exercise of any Warrants, to issue fractions of Common Shares or to distribute certificates which evidence fractional Common Shares. Any fractional Common Shares that would otherwise be issuable upon the exercise of Warrants shall be cancelled by the Corporation without compensation to the Holder thereof; and
 
(d)
Notwithstanding anything herein contained, no Common Shares will be issued pursuant to the exercise of any Warrant if the issuance of such Common Shares would constitute a violation of the securities laws of any applicable jurisdiction or the requirements of any applicable stock exchange, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that any of the Warrants are exercised prior to expiry of any hold period or other resale restriction placed thereon by such laws or requirements, the certificates evidencing the Common Shares thereby issued will bear such legend as is required under applicable securities laws and that, in the opinion of legal counsel to the Corporation, is necessary in order to avoid a violation of any such laws or requirements.
 
3.4
Subscription for Less than Entitlement
 
The Holder may subscribe for and purchase a number of Common Shares less than the number which it is entitled to purchase pursuant to the surrendered Warrant Certificate. In the event of any purchase of a number of Common Shares less than the number which can be purchased pursuant to the Warrant Certificate, the Corporation shall forthwith issue and deliver to the Holder a new Warrant Certificate containing the same terms and conditions as disclosed herein to purchase that number of Common Shares with respect to which such partial exercise did not apply.

3.5
Resale Restrictions
 
As the Corporation is not a reporting issuer in any jurisdiction of Canada, unless permitted under Canadian securities legislation, the Holder of this security must not trade the security in Canada and may have to hold the security for an indefinite period.
 
3.6
Expiration of the Warrant
 
After the Time of Expiry, all rights hereunder shall wholly cease and terminate and the Warrant Certificate and the Warrants shall be void and of no further force and effect.

ARTICLE 4
ADJUSTMENTS

4.1
Adjustment of Number of Common Shares
 
The acquisition rights in effect at any date attaching to the Warrants shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:

(a)
If and whenever at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Time of Expiry, any adjustment in the Exercise Price or in the calculation thereof pursuant to Section 4.2 shall occur as a result of:
 
(i)
an event referred to in subsection 4.2(a);
 
 
(ii)
the fixing by the Corporation of a record date for an event referred to in subsection 4.2(b); or
 
 
(iii)
the fixing by the Corporation of a record date for an event referred to in subsection 4.2(c) if such event constitutes the issue or distribution to the holders of all or substantially all of its outstanding Common Shares of:
 
 
(A)
Common Shares, or
 
 
(B)
securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares at less than the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on such record date, or
 
 
(C)
rights, options or warrants to acquire Common Shares at an exercise, exchange or conversion price per Common Share less than the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on such record date,
 
the number of Common Shares obtainable upon the subsequent exercise of the Warrant shall be adjusted simultaneously with the adjustment in the Exercise Price pursuant to Section 4.2 by multiplying the number of Common Shares theretofore obtainable on the exercise thereof immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after such date and the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to such date. To the extent that any adjustment in subscription rights occurs pursuant to this subsection 4.1(a) as a result of the distribution of securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares referred to in subsection 4.2(a) or as a result of the fixing by the Corporation of a record date for the distribution of rights, options or warrants referred to in subsection 4.2(b), the number of Common Shares purchasable upon exercise of a Warrant shall be readjusted immediately after the expiration of any relevant exchange, conversion or exercise right to the number of Common Shares which would be purchasable based upon the number of Common Shares actually issued and remaining issuable immediately after such expiration, and shall be further readjusted in such manner upon expiration of any further such right. To the extent that any such adjustment in subscription rights occurs pursuant to this subsection 4.1(a) as a result of the fixing by the Corporation of a record date for the distribution referred to in subsection 4.2(c) of rights, options or warrants or exchangeable or convertible securities, the number of Common Shares purchasable upon exercise of a Warrant shall be readjusted immediately after the expiration of any relevant exchange, conversion or exercise right to the number which would be purchasable pursuant to this subsection 4.1(a) if the fair market value of such rights, options or warrants or other exchangeable or convertible securities had been determined for the purposes of the adjustment pursuant to this subsection 4.1(a) on the basis of the number of Common Shares issued and remaining issuable immediately after such expiration, and shall be further readjusted in such manner upon expiration of any further right.

(b)
If and whenever at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Time of Expiry there is a reclassification of the Common Shares or a capital reorganization of the Corporation other than as described in subsection 4.2(a) or a consolidation, amalgamation or merger of the Corporation (including, without limitation, by way of plan of arrangement) with or into any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, or a sale or conveyance of the property and assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, any Warrantholder who has not exercised his right of acquisition prior to the effective date of such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, merger, sale or conveyance, upon the exercise of such right thereafter, shall be entitled to receive and shall accept, in lieu of the number of Common Shares then sought to be acquired by it, the kind and number of shares or other securities or property of the Corporation or of the body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity resulting from such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation or merger, or to which such sale or conveyance may be made, as the case may be, that such Holder would have been entitled to receive as a result of such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, merger, sale or conveyance, if, on the record date or the effective date thereof, as the case may be, the Warrantholder had been the registered Holder of the number of Common Shares to which the Holder was theretofore entitled upon exercise. If determined appropriate by the board of directors of the Corporation to give effect to or to evidence the provisions of this subsection 4.1(b), the Corporation, its successor, or such purchasing body corporate, partnership, trust or other entity, as the case may be, shall prior to or contemporaneously with any such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, merger, sale or conveyance, enter into an agreement or new Warrant Certificate which shall provide, to the extent possible, for the application of the provisions set forth in this Warrant Certificate with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Warrantholder to the end that the provisions set forth in this Warrant shall thereafter correspondingly be made applicable, as nearly as may reasonably be, with respect to any shares, other securities or property to which a Warrantholder is entitled on the exercise of its acquisition rights thereafter and upon entering into such new Warrant Certificate or agreement, the Corporation shall cease to have any obligations (including the obligation to issue any Common Shares) hereunder and the Holder shall cease to have any rights hereunder. Any Warrant Certificate or agreement entered into pursuant to the provisions of this subsection 4.1(b) shall be an agreement entered into pursuant to the provisions of Article 6. Any Warrant Certificate or agreement entered into between the Corporation, any successor to the Corporation or such purchasing body corporate, partnership, trust or other entity shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided in this Article 4 and which shall apply to successive reclassifications, reorganizations, consolidations, amalgamations, mergers, sales or conveyances.

4.2
Adjustment of Exercise Price
 
The Exercise Price in effect at any date attaching to the Warrants shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:

(a)
If and whenever after the date hereof and at any time prior to the Time of Expiry, the Corporation shall:
 
 
(i)
subdivide, divide or change its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of Common Shares;
 
 
(ii)
consolidate, reduce or combine its outstanding Common Shares into a lesser number of Common Shares;
 
 
(iii)
make any distribution, other than by way of Dividend Paid in the Ordinary Course, to the holders of all or substantially all of the outstanding Common Shares payable in Common Shares;
 
 
the Exercise Price in effect on the effective date of such events referred to in subsections 4.2(a)(i), 4.2(a)(ii), or 4.2(a)(iii) shall be adjusted to equal the price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such effective date by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to such date and the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares immediately after such date. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event referred to in this subsection 4.2(a) shall occur.
 
(b)
If and whenever at any time after the date hereof, the Corporation shall fix a record date which is prior to the Time of Expiry for the issue of rights, options or warrants to all or substantially all the holders of outstanding Common Shares under which such holders are entitled during a period expiring not more than sixty (60) days after the record date for such issue to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares, or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares, at a price per Common Share or having a conversion or exchange price per Common Share less than the Current Market Price per Common Share on such record date, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect on such record date by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date plus a number of Common Shares equal to the number arrived at by dividing the aggregate price of the total number of additional Common Shares offered for subscription or purchase, or the aggregate conversion or exchange price of the convertible securities so offered, by such Current Market Price per Common Share, and of which the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date plus the total number of additional Common Shares offered for subscription or purchase (or into which the convertible securities so offered are convertible or exchangeable). If by the terms of the rights, options or warrants referred to in this subsection 4.2(b), there is more than one purchase, conversion or exchange price per Common Share, the aggregate price of the total number of additional Common Shares offered for subscription or purchase, or the aggregate conversion or exchange price of the convertible securities so offered, shall be calculated for purposes of the adjustment on the basis of the lowest purchase, conversion or exchange price per Common Share, as the case may be. Any Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation. To the extent that any adjustment in Exercise Price occurs pursuant to this subsection 4.2(b) as a result of the fixing by the Corporation of a record date for the distribution of rights, options or warrants referred to in this subsection 4.2(b), the Exercise Price shall be readjusted immediately after the expiration of any relevant exchange, conversion or exercise right to the Exercise Price which would then be in effect based upon the number of Common Shares actually issued and remaining issuable after such expiration, and shall be further readjusted in such manner upon expiration of any further such right.
 
9

 
(c)
If and whenever at any time prior to the Time of Expiry, the Corporation shall fix a record date which is prior to the Time of Expiry for the issue or distribution to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares of:
 
 
(i)
shares of any class other than Common Shares (excluding Dividends Paid in the Ordinary Course);
 
(ii)
rights, options or warrants (excluding those referred to in subsection 4.2(b));
 
(iii)
evidences of its indebtedness; or
 
 
(iv)
any other property or assets (excluding Dividends Paid in the Ordinary Course);
 
then, and in each such case, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect on such record date by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by the Current Market Price on such record date, less the aggregate fair market value (as determined by the Corporation, which determination shall be conclusive) of such shares, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or assets so issued or distributed, and of which the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by such Current Market Price, and any Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed, and to the extent that such distribution is not so made, the Exercise Price shall then be readjusted to the Exercise Price which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed or to the Exercise Price which would then be in effect based upon such shares, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or assets actually distributed, as the case may be.

4.3
General Adjustments
 
(a)
If necessary, appropriate adjustments shall be made in the application of the provisions set forth in this Article 4 with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the holders of Warrants to the end that the provisions set forth in this Article 4 shall thereafter correspondingly be made applicable as nearly as may reasonably be possible in relation to any shares or other securities or property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of any Warrant. Any such adjustments shall be made by and set forth in an amendment to this Warrant Certificate hereto approved by the directors of the Corporation and shall for all purposes conclusively be deemed to be an appropriate adjustment.
 
(b)
If any case in which this Article 4 shall require that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after a record date for an event referred to herein, the Corporation may defer, until the occurrence of such event, issuing to the Holder of any Warrant exercised after such event the additional Common Shares issuable upon such conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such event before giving effect to such adjustment; provided, however, that the Corporation shall deliver to such Holder an appropriate instrument evidencing such Holder's right to receive such additional Common Shares upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment and the right to receive any distributions made on such additional Common Shares declared in favour of holders of record of Common Shares on and after the relevant date of exercise or such later date as such Holder would, but for the provisions of this subsection 4.3(b), have become the Holder of record of such additional Common Shares as a result of the exercise of the Warrants.
 
(c)
No adjustment in the Exercise Price or in the number of shares to be issued pursuant to the exercise of the Warrants shall be required unless such adjustment would result in a change of at least 1% in the Exercise Price then in effect or unless the number of shares to be issued would change by at least 1/100th of a share, provided, however, that any adjustments which, except for the provisions of this subsection 4.3(c) would otherwise have been required to be made, shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment.
 
(d)
The adjustments provided for in this Article 4 in the Exercise Price and in the number and classes of shares which are to be received on the exercise of Warrants are cumulative. After any adjustment pursuant to this Section, the term "Common Shares" where used in this Warrant shall be interpreted to mean the shares or other securities or property of the Corporation which, as a result of all prior adjustments pursuant to this Section, the Warrantholder is entitled to receive upon the exercise of his Warrant, and the number of Common Shares indicated in any subscription made pursuant to a Warrant shall be interpreted to mean the number and kind of securities or property which, as a result of all prior adjustments pursuant to this Article 4, a Warrantholder is entitled to receive upon the full exercise of a Warrant entitling the Holder thereof to purchase the number of Common Shares so indicated.
 
11

 
(e)
All securities and property which a Warrantholder is at the time in question entitled to receive on the full exercise of his Warrant, whether or not as a result of adjustments made pursuant to this Section, shall, for the purposes of the interpretation of this Warrant be deemed to be securities and property which such Warrantholder is entitled to purchase pursuant to such Warrant.
 
4.4
Notice of Adjustment
 
Whenever the number of Common Shares purchasable upon the exercise of each Warrant or the Exercise Price of such Common Shares is adjusted, as herein provided, the Corporation shall promptly send to the Warrantholder by first class mail, postage prepaid, notice of such adjustment or adjustments.
 
ARTICLE 5

TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK

OF

DEEP WELL OIL & GAS, INC.
 

Original Issue Date: March 10, 2005
Warrant No.  __

THIS CERTIFIES that_____________________________________ or any subsequent holder hereof (the “Holder”), has the right to purchase from DEEP WELL OIL & GAS, INC., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), up to ________ fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), subject to adjustment as provided herein, at a price per share equal to the Exercise Price (as defined below), at any time and from time to time beginning on the date on which this Warrant is originally issued (the “Issue Date”) and ending at 6:00 p.m., eastern time, on the date that is the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Issue Date (or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the Business Day immediately following such date) (the “Expiration Date”). This Warrant is issued pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 10, 2005 (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement.
 
1. Exercise.

(a)  Right to Exercise; Exercise Price. The Holder shall have the right to exercise this Warrant at any time and from time to time during the period beginning on the Issue Date and ending on the Expiration Date as to all or any part of the shares of Common Stock covered hereby (the “Warrant Shares”). The “Exercise Price” for each Warrant Share purchased by the Holder upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be equal to forty cent ($0.40), subject to adjustment for the events specified in Section 6 below.



(b)  Exercise Notice. In order to exercise this Warrant, the Holder shall send to the Company by facsimile transmission, at any time prior to 6:00 p.m., eastern time, on the Business Day on which the Holder wishes to effect such exercise (the “Exercise Date”), (i) a notice of exercise in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Exercise Notice”), and (ii) a copy of the original Warrant, and, in the case of a Cash Exercise (as defined below), the Holder shall pay the Exercise Price to the Company by wire transfer of immediately available funds. The Exercise Notice shall state the name or names in which the shares of Common Stock that are issuable on such exercise shall be issued. In the case of a dispute between the Company and the Holder as to the calculation of the Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder (including, without limitation, the calculation of any adjustment pursuant to Section 6 below), the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares that are not disputed within the time periods specified in Section 2 below and shall submit the disputed calculations to a certified public accounting firm of national reputation (other than the Company’s regularly retained accountants) within two (2) Business Days following the date on which the Holder’s Exercise Notice is delivered to the Company. The Company shall cause such accountant to calculate the Exercise Price and/or the number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder and to notify the Company and the Holder of the results in writing no later than three (3) Business Days following the day on which such accountant received the disputed calculations (the “Dispute Procedure”). Such accountant’s calculation shall be deemed conclusive absent manifest error. The fees of any such accountant shall be borne by the party whose calculations were most at variance with those of such accountant.

(c)  Holder of Record. The Holder shall, for all purposes, be deemed to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares specified in an Exercise Notice on the Exercise Date specified therein, irrespective of the date of delivery of such Warrant Shares. Except as specifically provided herein, nothing in this Warrant shall be construed as conferring upon the Holder hereof any rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the Exercise Date.

(d)  Cancellation of Warrant. This Warrant shall be canceled upon its exercise in full and, if this Warrant is exercised in part, the Company shall, at the time that it delivers Warrant Shares to the Holder pursuant to such exercise as provided herein, issue a new warrant, and deliver to the Holder a certificate representing such new warrant, with terms identical in all respects to this Warrant (except that such new warrant shall be exercisable into the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which this Warrant shall remain unexercised); provided, however, that the Holder shall be entitled to exercise all or any portion of such new warrant at any time following the time at which this Warrant is exercised, regardless of whether the Company has actually issued such new warrant or delivered to the Holder a certificate therefor.

2. Delivery of Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. Upon receipt of a fax copy of an Exercise Notice pursuant to Section 1 above, the Company shall, (A) in the case of a Cash Exercise, no later than the close of business on the later to occur of (i) the third (3rd) Business Day following the Exercise Date specified in such Exercise Notice and (ii) such later date on which the Company shall have received payment of the Exercise Price, (B) in the case of a Cashless Exercise (as defined below), no later than the close of business on the third (3rd) Business Day following the Exercise Date specified in such Exercise Notice, and (C) with respect to Warrant Shares that are the subject of a Dispute Procedure, the close of business on the third (3rd) Business Day following the determination made pursuant to Section 1(b) (each of the dates specified in (A), (B) or (C) being referred to as a “Delivery Date”), issue and deliver or caused to be delivered to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares as shall be determined as provided herein. The Company shall effect delivery of Warrant Shares to the Holder, as long as the Company’s designated transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) participates in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer program (“FAST”) and no restrictive legend is required pursuant to the terms of this Warrant or the Securities Purchase Agreement, by crediting the account of the Holder or its nominee at DTC (as specified in the applicable Exercise Notice) with the number of Warrant Shares required to be delivered, no later than the close of business on such Delivery Date. In the event that the Transfer Agent is not a participant in FAST or if the Holder so specifies in a Exercise Notice or otherwise in writing on or before the Exercise Date, the Company shall effect delivery of Warrant Shares by delivering to the Holder or its nominee physical certificates representing such Warrant Shares, no later than the close of business on such Delivery Date. Warrant Shares delivered to the Holder shall not contain any restrictive legend unless such legend is required pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement.

-2-


3. Failure to Deliver Warrant Shares.

(a) In the event that the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares specified in the applicable Exercise Notice on or before the Delivery Date therefor (an “Exercise Default”), the Company shall pay to the Holder payments (“Exercise Default Payments”) in the amount of (i) (N/365) multiplied by (ii) the aggregate Exercise Price of the Warrant Shares which are the subject of such Exercise Default multiplied by (iii) the lower of twelve percent (12%) per annum and the maximum rate permitted by applicable law (the “Default Interest Rate”), where “N” equals the number of days elapsed between the original Delivery Date of such Warrant Shares and the date on which all of such Warrant Shares are issued and delivered to the Holder. Cash amounts payable hereunder shall be paid on or before the fifth (5th) Business Day of each calendar month following the calendar month in which such amount has accrued.

(b) In the event of an Exercise Default, the Holder may, upon written notice to the Company (an “Exercise Default Notice”), regain on the date of such notice the rights of the Holder under the exercised portion of this Warrant that is the subject of such Exercise Default. In the event of such Exercise Default and delivery of an Exercise Default Notice, the Holder shall retain all of the Holder’s rights and remedies with respect to the Company’s failure to deliver such Warrant Shares (including without limitation the right to receive the cash payments specified in Section 3(a) above).

(c)  The Holder’s rights and remedies hereunder are cumulative, and no right or remedy is exclusive of any other. In addition to the amounts specified herein, the Holder shall have the right to pursue all other remedies available to it at law or in equity (including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief). Nothing herein shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue actual damages for the Company’s failure to issue and deliver Warrant Shares on the applicable Delivery Date (including, without limitation, damages relating to any purchase of Common Stock by the Holder to make delivery on a sale effected in anticipation of receiving Warrant Shares upon exercise, such damages to be in an amount equal to (A) the aggregate amount paid by the Holder for the Common Stock so purchased minus (B) the aggregate amount of net proceeds, if any, received by the Holder from the sale of the Warrant Shares issued by the Company pursuant to such exercise).  

-3-


4.  Exercise Limitations. In no event shall a Holder be permitted to exercise this Warrant, or part hereof, if, upon such exercise, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder (other than shares which would otherwise be deemed beneficially owned except for being subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained in this Section 4), would exceed 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock then issued and outstanding. As used herein, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules thereunder. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 4 applies, the submission of an Exercise Notice by the Holder shall be deemed to be the Holder’s representation that this Warrant is exercisable pursuant to the terms hereof and the Company shall be entitled to rely on such representation without making any further inquiry as to whether this Section 4 applies. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to restrict the right of a Holder to exercise this Warrant, or part thereof, at such time as such exercise will not violate the provisions of this Section 4. This Section 4 may not be amended unless such amendment is approved by the holders of a majority of the Common Stock then outstanding; provided, however, that the limitations contained in this Section 4 shall cease to apply (x) upon sixty (60) days’ prior written notice from the Holder to the Company, or (y) immediately upon written notice from the Holder to the Company at any time after the public announcement or other disclosure of a Major Transaction (as defined below) or a Change of Control. For purposes hereof, Change of Control” means the existence or occurrence of any of the following: (a) the sale, conveyance or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; (b) the effectuation of a transaction or series of transactions in which more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of the Company is disposed of; (c) the consolidation, merger or other business combination of the Company with or into any other entity, immediately following which the prior stockholders of the Company fail to own, directly or indirectly, at least fifty percent (50%) of the surviving entity; (d) a transaction or series of transactions in which any Person or group acquires more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting equity of the Company; and (e) the individuals serving on the Board of Directors as of the Closing Date do not at any time constitute at least a majority of the Board of Directors of the Company.

5.  Payment of the Exercise Price; Cashless Exercise. The Holder may pay the Exercise Price in either of the following forms or, at the election of Holder, a combination thereof:

(a) through a cash exercise (a “Cash Exercise”) by delivering immediately available funds, or

(b) if, for any reason, an effective Registration Statement is not available for the resale of all of the Warrant Shares issuable hereunder at the time an Exercise Notice is delivered to the Company, through a cashless exercise (a “Cashless Exercise”), as hereinafter provided. The Holder may effect a Cashless Exercise by surrendering this Warrant to the Company and noting on the Exercise Notice that the Holder wishes to effect a Cashless Exercise, upon which the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares determined as follows:

-4-


 
X = Y x (A-B)/A
   
where:
X = the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder;
   
 
Y = the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is being exercised;
   
 
A = the Market Price as of the Exercise Date; and
   
 
B = the Exercise Price.

For purposes of Rule 144, it is intended and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a Cashless Exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the Warrant Shares required by Rule 144 shall be deemed to have been commenced, on the Issue Date.

6. Anti-Dilution Adjustments; Distributions; Other Events. The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 6. In the event that any adjustment of the Exercise Price required herein results in a fraction of a cent, the Exercise Price shall be rounded up or down to the nearest one hundredth of a cent.

(a) Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company, at any time after the Issue Date, subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification or otherwise) the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, then effective upon the close of business on the record date for effecting such subdivision, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. If the Company, at any time after the Issue Date, combines (by reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification or otherwise) the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then, effective upon the close of business on the record date for effecting such combination, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionally increased.

(b)  Distributions. If, at any time after the Issue Date, the Company declares or makes any distribution of cash or any other assets (or rights to acquire such assets) to holders of Common Stock, as a partial liquidating dividend or otherwise, including without limitation any dividend or distribution to the Company’s stockholders in shares (or rights to acquire shares) of capital stock of a subsidiary) (a “Distribution”), the Company shall deliver written notice of such Distribution (a “Distribution Notice”) to the Holder at least thirty (30) days prior to the earlier to occur of (i) the record date for determining stockholders entitled to such Distribution (the “Record Date”) and (ii) the date on which such Distribution is made (the “Distribution Date”) (the earlier of such dates being referred to as the “Determination Date”). Within ten (10) days following receipt of a Distribution Notice, the Holder shall notify the Company whether the Holder has elected (A) to receive, upon any exercise of this Warrant after the Determination Date, the same amount and type of assets being distributed in such Distribution as though the Holder were, on the Determination Date, a holder of a number of shares of Common Stock into which this Warrant is exercisable as of such Determination Date (such number of shares to be determined at the Exercise Price then in effect and without giving effect to any limitations on such exercise) or (B) upon any exercise of this Warrant on or after the Determination Date, to reduce the Exercise Price applicable to such exercise by reducing the Exercise Price in effect on the Business Day immediately preceding the Determination Date by an amount equal to the fair market value of the assets to be distributed divided by the number of shares of Common Stock as to which such Distribution is to be made, such fair market value to be reasonably determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors. If the Holder does not notify the Company of its election pursuant to the preceding sentence on or before the tenth (10th) day following receipt of a Distribution Notice delivered in accordance with this paragraph (b), the Holder shall be deemed to have elected clause (A) of the preceding sentence; and if the Company does not deliver a Distribution Notice within the time frames specified above, the Holder shall have the right to choose either clause (A) or clause (B) of the preceding sentence at any time following the date on which Holder’s receives notice or otherwise becomes aware of the Distribution.

(c) Dilutive Issuances. If, at any time after the Issue Date, the Company issues or sells, or in accordance with paragraph (d) below, is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock for a price per share less than the Exercise Price on the date of such issuance or sale (a “Dilutive Issuance”), then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to equal such lower price. No adjustment shall be made pursuant hereto if such adjustment would result in an increase in the Exercise Price.
 
(d) Effect On Exercise Price Of Certain Events. For purposes of determining the adjusted Exercise Price under paragraph (c) above, the following will be applicable:
 
(A) Issuance Of Purchase Rights. If the Company issues or sells any Purchase Rights, whether or not immediately exercisable, and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such Purchase Rights (and the price of any conversion of Convertible Securities, if applicable) is less than the Exercise Price in effect on the date of issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, then the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of all such Purchase Rights (assuming full conversion, exercise or exchange of Convertible Securities, if applicable) shall, as of the date of the issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company for such price per share. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the “price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such Purchase Rights” shall be determined by dividing (x) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issuance or sale of all such Purchase Rights, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the exercise of all such Purchase Rights, plus, in the case of Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Purchase Rights, the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration payable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof (determined in accordance with the calculation method set forth in subparagraph (B) below) at the time such Convertible Securities first become convertible, exercisable or exchangeable, by (y) the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of all such Purchase Rights (assuming full conversion, exercise or exchange of Convertible Securities, if applicable). No further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon the exercise of such Purchase Rights or upon the conversion, exercise or exchange of Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of such Purchase Rights.
 
-6-


(B) Issuance Of Convertible Securities. If the Company issues or sells any Convertible Securities, whether or not immediately convertible, exercisable or exchangeable, and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion, exercise or exchange is less than the Exercise Price in effect on the date of issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities, then the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange of all such Convertible Securities shall, as of the date of the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities, be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company for such price per share. If the Convertible Securities so issued or sold do not have a fluctuating conversion or exercise price or exchange ratio, then for the purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, the “price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion, exercise or exchange” shall be determined by dividing (x) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issuance or sale of all such Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof (determined in accordance with the calculation method set forth in this subparagraph (B)), by (y) the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities. If the Convertible Securities so issued or sold have a fluctuating conversion or exercise price or exchange ratio (a “Variable Rate Convertible Security”), then for purposes of the first sentence of this subparagraph (B), the “price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion, exercise or exchange” shall be deemed to be the lowest price per share which would be applicable (assuming all holding period and other conditions to any discounts contained in such Variable Rate Convertible Security have been satisfied) if the conversion price of such Variable Rate Convertible Security on the date of issuance or sale thereof were seventy-five percent (75%) of the actual conversion price on such date (the “Assumed Variable Market Price”), and, further, if the conversion price of such Variable Rate Convertible Security at any time or times thereafter is less than or equal to the Assumed Variable Market Price last used for making any adjustment under this paragraph (c) with respect to any Variable Rate Convertible Security, the Exercise Price in effect at such time shall be readjusted to equal the Exercise Price which would have resulted if the Assumed Variable Market Price at the time of issuance of the Variable Rate Convertible Security had been seventy-five percent (75%) of the actual conversion price of such Variable Rate Convertible Security existing at the time of the adjustment required by this sentence; provided, however, that if the conversion or exercise price or exchange ratio of a Convertible Security may fluctuate solely as a result of provisions designed to protect against dilution, such Convertible Security shall not be deemed to be a Variable Rate Convertible Security. No further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Securities.
 
-7-


(C) Change In Option Price Or Conversion Rate. If, following an adjustment to the Exercise Price upon the issuance of Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities pursuant to a Dilutive Issuance, there is a change at any time in (x) the amount of additional consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise of any Purchase Rights; (y) the amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities; or (z) the rate at which any Convertible Securities are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock (in each such case, other than under or by reason of provisions designed to protect against dilution), then in any such case, the Exercise Price in effect at the time of such change shall be readjusted to the Exercise Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities still outstanding provided for such changed additional consideration or changed conversion, exercise or exchange rate, as the case may be, at the time initially issued or sold.
 
(D) Calculation Of Consideration Received. If any Common Stock, Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for cash, the consideration received therefor will be the amount received by the Company therefore. In case any Common Stock, Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for a consideration part or all of which shall be other than cash, including in the case of a strategic or similar arrangement in which the other entity will provide services to the Company, purchase services from the Company or otherwise provide intangible consideration to the Company, the amount of the consideration other than cash received by the Company (including the net present value of the consideration expected by the Company for the provided or purchased services) shall be the fair market value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of publicly traded securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the Company will be the Market Price thereof on the date of receipt. In case any Common Stock, Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities are issued in connection with any merger or consolidation in which the Company is the surviving corporation, the amount of consideration therefor will be deemed to be the fair market value of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving corporation as is attributable to such Common Stock, Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities, as the case may be. The independent members of the Company’s Board of Directors shall calculate reasonably and in good faith, using standard commercial valuation methods appropriate for valuing such assets, the fair market value of any consideration other than cash or securities.
 
(E) Issuances Without Consideration Pursuant to Existing Securities. If the Company issues (or becomes obligated to issue) shares of Common Stock pursuant to any anti-dilution or similar adjustments (other than as a result of stock splits, stock dividends and the like) contained in any Convertible Securities or Purchase Rights outstanding as of the date hereof, then all shares of Common Stock so issued shall be deemed to have been issued for no consideration.
 
-8-

 
(e) Exceptions To Adjustment Of Exercise Price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made pursuant to paragraph (c) above upon the issuance of any Excluded Securities. For purposes hereof, “Excluded Securities” means (I) securities purchased under the Securities Purchase Agreement; (II) securities issued upon exercise of the Warrants; (III) shares of Common Stock issuable or issued to (x) employees, consultants or directors from time to time upon the exercise of options, in such case granted or to be granted in the discretion of the Board of Directors pursuant to one or more stock option plans or restricted stock plans in effect as of the Issue Date or adopted after the Issue Date by the independent members of the Board of Directors with substantially the same terms as such plans in effect as of the Issue Date, or (y) vendors pursuant to warrants to purchase Common Stock that are outstanding on the date hereof or issued hereafter, provided such issuances are approved by the Board of Directors; (IV) shares of Common Stock issued in connection with a commercial lending transaction with a federally-insured financial institution that is approved by the independent members of the Board of Directors, provided that the fair market value of such shares does not exceed ten percent (10%) of the amount borrowed; (V) shares of Common Stock issued in connection with any stock split, stock dividend or recapitalization of the Company; (VI) shares of Common Stock issued in connection with the acquisition by the Company of any corporation or other entity occurring after the Effective Date, provided that a fairness opinion with respect to such acquisition is rendered by an investment bank of national recognition; (VII) shares of Common Stock issued in connection with any Convertible Securities or Purchase Rights outstanding on the date hereof and disclosed in a schedule to the Securities Purchase Agreement; and (VIII) shares issued to Persons with whom the Company is entering into a joint venture, strategic alliance or other commercial relationship in connection with the operation of the Company’s business and not in connection with a transaction the purpose of which is to raise equity capital.

(f) Notice Of Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of one or more adjustments or readjustments of the Exercise Price pursuant to paragraph (c) above or any change in the number or type of stock, securities and/or other property issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the Company, at its expense, shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment or change and prepare and furnish to the Holder a notice (an “Adjustment Notice”) setting forth such adjustment or readjustment or change and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment or change is based, and, on or before the time that it delivers an Adjustment Notice, publicly disclose the contents thereof. The failure of the Company to deliver an Adjustment Notice shall not affect the validity of any such adjustment.
 
(g)  Major Transactions. In the event of a merger, consolidation, business combination, tender offer, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, redemption or other similar event, as a result of which shares of Common Stock shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of the same or another class or classes of stock or securities or other assets of the Company or another entity or the Company shall sell all or substantially all of its assets (each of the foregoing being a “Major Transaction”), the Company will give the Holder at least twenty (20) Trading Days written notice prior to the earlier of (x) the closing or effectiveness of such Major Transaction and (y) the record date for the receipt of such shares of stock or securities or other assets. In the event of a Major Transaction, the Holder shall be permitted to either (i) require the Company to repurchase this Warrant for an amount to the value of this Warrant calculated pursuant to the Black-Scholes pricing model or (ii) exercise this Warrant in whole or in part at any time prior to the record date for the receipt of such consideration and shall be entitled to receive, for each share of Common Stock issuable to Holder upon such exercise, the same per share consideration payable to the other holders of Common Stock in connection with such Major Transaction. If and to the extent that the Holder retains any portion of this Warrant following such record date, the Company will cause the surviving or, in the event of a sale of assets, purchasing entity, as a condition precedent to such Major Transaction, to assume the obligations of the Company under this Warrant, with such adjustments to the Exercise Price and the securities covered hereby as may be necessary in order to preserve the economic benefits of this Warrant to the Holder.
 
-9-


(h)  Adjustments; Additional Shares, Securities or Assets. In the event that at any time, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this Section 6, the Holder of this Warrant shall, upon exercise of this Warrant, become entitled to receive securities or assets (other than Common Stock) then, wherever appropriate, all references herein to shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to refer to and include such shares and/or other securities or assets; and thereafter the number of such shares and/or other securities or assets shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner and upon terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions of this Section 6. Any adjustment made herein that results in a decrease in the Exercise Price shall also effect a proportional increase in the number of shares of Common Stock into which this Warrant is exercisable.

7. Fractional Interests.

No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant, but on exercise of this Warrant, the Holder hereof may purchase only a whole number of shares of Common Stock. If, on exercise of this Warrant, the Holder hereof would be entitled to a fractional share of Common Stock or a right to acquire a fractional share of Common Stock, the Company shall, in lieu of issuing any such fractional share, pay to the Holder an amount in cash equal to the product resulting from multiplying such fraction by the Market Price as of the Exercise Date.

8. Transfer of this Warrant.

The Holder may sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of this Warrant, in whole or in part, as long as such sale or other disposition is made pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Upon such transfer or other disposition (other than a pledge), the Holder shall deliver this Warrant to the Company together with a written notice to the Company, substantially in the form of the Transfer Notice attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Transfer Notice”), indicating the person or persons to whom this Warrant shall be transferred and, if less than all of this Warrant is transferred, the number of Warrant Shares to be covered by the part of this Warrant to be transferred to each such person. Within three (3) Business Days of receiving a Transfer Notice and the original of this Warrant, the Company shall deliver to the each transferee designated by the Holder a Warrant or Warrants of like tenor and terms for the appropriate number of Warrant Shares and, if less than all this Warrant is transferred, shall deliver to the Holder a Warrant for the remaining number of Warrant Shares.

9. Benefits of this Warrant.

This Warrant shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Holder of this Warrant and nothing in this Warrant shall be construed to confer upon any person other than the Holder of this Warrant any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim hereunder.

-10-


10. Loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of Warrant.

Upon receipt by the Company of evidence of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Company, and upon surrender of this Warrant, if mutilated, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor and date.

11. Notice or Demands.
 
Any notice, demand or request required or permitted to be given by the Company or the Holder pursuant to the terms of this Warrant shall be in writing and shall be deemed delivered (i) when delivered personally or by verifiable facsimile transmission, unless such delivery is made on a day that is not a Business Day, in which case such delivery will be deemed to be made on the next succeeding Business Day, (ii) on the next Business Day after timely delivery to an overnight courier and (iii) on the Business Day actually received if deposited in the U.S. mail (certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid), addressed as follows:

(ii) to the Corporation to deliver the certificates for the purchased shares directly to such brokerage firm in order to complete the sale; or
 
(E) by any combination of the methods of payment described above.
 
6. Securities Law Matters.

(B)  Accredited Investor. The Optionee represents that it is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act.
 
(C) Restrictions on Exercise.

(E) Legend. The Optionee understands and acknowledges that upon the original issuance of the Shares, as applicable, and until such time as the same is no longer required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act or state securities laws, the certificates representing the Shares, and all certificates issued in exchange therefor or in substitution thereof, shall bear a legend with respect to the transfer restrictions set forth above.

(C) No Right to Employment. The grant of the Option shall not be construed as giving Optionee the right to be retained in the employ of, or as giving a director of the Corporation or a Subsidiary (as defined in the Plan) the right to continue as a director of the Corporation or a Subsidiary, nor will it affect in any way the right of the Corporation or a Subsidiary to terminate such employment or position at any time, with or without cause. In addition, the Corporation or Subsidiary may at any time dismiss Optionee from employment, or terminate the term of a director of the Corporation or a Subsidiary, free from any liability or any claim under the Plan or the Agreement. Nothing in the Agreement shall confer on any person any legal or equitable right against the Corporation or any Subsidiary, directly or indirectly, or give rise to any cause of action at law or in equity against the Corporation or a Subsidiary. The Option granted hereunder shall not form any part of the wages or salary of Optionee for purposes of severance pay or termination indemnities, irrespective of the reason for termination of employment. Under no circumstances shall any person ceasing to be an employee of the Corporation or any Subsidiary be entitled to any compensation for any loss of any right or benefit under the Agreement or Plan which such optionee might otherwise have enjoyed but for termination of employment, whether such compensation is claimed by way of damages for wrongful or unfair dismissal, breach of contract or otherwise. By participating in the Plan, Optionee shall be deemed to have accepted all the conditions of the Plan and the Agreement and the terms and conditions of any rules and regulations adopted by the Committee and shall be fully bound thereby.
 
(D) Governing Law. The validity, construction and effect of the Plan and the Agreement, and any rules and regulations relating to the Plan and the Agreement, shall be determined in accordance with the internal laws, and not the law of conflicts, of the State of Nevada.
 
(E) Severability. If any provision of the Agreement is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction or would disqualify the Agreement under any law deemed applicable by the Committee (as defined in the Plan), such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to applicable laws, or if it cannot be so construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the Committee, materially altering the purpose or intent of the Plan or the Agreement, such provision shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction or the Agreement, and the remainder of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
 
 
 

 
 
(F) No Trust or Fund Created. Neither the Plan nor the Agreement shall create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Corporation or any Subsidiary and Optionee or any other person.
 
(G) Headings. Headings are given to the Sections and subsections of the Agreement solely as a convenience to facilitate reference. Such headings shall not be deemed in any way material or relevant to the construction or interpretation of the Agreement or any provision thereof.
 
(H) Conditions Precedent to Issuance of Shares; Repurchase Rights. Shares shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise of the Option unless such exercise and the issuance and delivery of the applicable Shares pursuant thereto shall comply with all relevant provisions of law, including, without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the requirements of any applicable Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq National Market and the corporate laws of the state of Nevada. As a condition to the exercise of the purchase price relating to the Option, the Corporation may require that the person exercising or paying the purchase price represent and warrant that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Corporation, such a representation and warranty is required by law.
 
(I) Withholding. In order to comply with all applicable federal, state or provincial income tax laws or regulations, the Corporation may take such action as it deems appropriate to assure that all applicable federal, state or provincial payroll, withholding, income or other taxes are withheld or collected from Optionee.
 
(J) Adjustment to Number of Shares and Exercise Price. Subject to approval if necessary of any relevant stock exchange, the Board will adjust the number of Shares subject to an Option, and the exercise price per Share payable upon exercise of an Option, upon the occurrence of any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, combination of shares, reclassification of shares, recapitalization or other similar corporate transaction with respect to the Shares. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence to the contrary, no such adjustment will be made upon the conversion of any debt instrument, share of preferred stock or other convertible security of the Corporation into Shares.
 
(K) Review of Plan.

In addition, the Corporation or Subsidiary may at any time dismiss Optionee from employment, or terminate the term of a director of the Corporation or a Subsidiary, free from any liability or any claim under the Plan or the Agreement. Nothing in the Agreement shall confer on any person any legal or equitable right against the Corporation or any Subsidiary, directly or indirectly, or give rise to any cause of action at law or in equity against the Corporation or a Subsidiary. The Option granted hereunder shall not form any part of the wages or salary of Optionee for purposes of severance pay or termination indemnities, irrespective of the reason for termination of employment. Under no circumstances shall any person ceasing to be an employee of the Corporation or any Subsidiary be entitled to any compensation for any loss of any right or benefit under the Agreement or Plan which such optionee might otherwise have enjoyed but for termination of employment, whether such compensation is claimed by way of damages for wrongful or unfair dismissal, breach of contract or otherwise. By participating in the Plan, Optionee shall be deemed to have accepted all the conditions of the Plan and the Agreement and the terms and conditions of any rules and regulations adopted by the Committee and shall be fully bound thereby.
 
(D) Governing Law. The validity, construction and effect of the Plan and the Agreement, and any rules and regulations relating to the Plan and the Agreement, shall be determined in accordance with the internal laws, and not the law of conflicts, of the State of Nevada.
 
(E) Severability. If any provision of the Agreement is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction or would disqualify the Agreement under any law deemed applicable by the Committee (as defined in the Plan), such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to applicable laws, or if it cannot be so construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the Committee, materially altering the purpose or intent of the Plan or the Agreement, such provision shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction or the Agreement, and the remainder of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
 

 
(F) No Trust or Fund Created. Neither the Plan nor the Agreement shall create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Corporation or any Subsidiary and Optionee or any other person.
 
(G) Headings. Headings are given to the Sections and subsections of the Agreement solely as a convenience to facilitate reference. Such headings shall not be deemed in any way material or relevant to the construction or interpretation of the Agreement or any provision thereof.
 
(H) Conditions Precedent to Issuance of Shares; Repurchase Rights. Shares shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise of the Option unless such exercise and the issuance and delivery of the applicable Shares pursuant thereto shall comply with all relevant provisions of law, including, without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the requirements of any applicable Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq National Market and the corporate laws of the state of Nevada. As a condition to the exercise of the purchase price relating to the Option, the Corporation may require that the person exercising or paying the purchase price represent and warrant that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Corporation, such a representation and warranty is required by law.
 
(I) Withholding. In order to comply with all applicable federal, state or provincial income tax laws or regulations, the Corporation may take such action as it deems appropriate to assure that all applicable federal, state or provincial payroll, withholding, income or other taxes are withheld or collected from Optionee.
 
(J) Adjustment to Number of Shares and Exercise Price. Subject to approval if necessary of any relevant stock exchange, the Board will adjust the number of Shares subject to an Option, and the exercise price per Share payable upon exercise of an Option, upon the occurrence of any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, combination of shares, reclassification of shares, recapitalization or other similar corporate transaction with respect to the Shares. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence to the contrary, no such adjustment will be made upon the conversion of any debt instrument, share of preferred stock or other convertible security of the Corporation into Shares.
 
(K) Review of Plan. Optionee acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and represents that he or she is familiar with the terms and provisions thereof, and hereby accepts this Option subject to all of the terms and provisions thereof. Optionee has reviewed the Plan and this Option in their entirety, has had an opportunity to obtain the advice of counsel prior to executing this Option and fully understands all provisions of the Option. Optionee hereby agrees to accept as binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the Board upon any questions arising under the Plan or this Option.
 
(L) Change of Address. Optionee further agrees to notify the Corporation upon any change in the residence address indicated below.
 

 
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Corporation and Optionee have executed this Agreement as of the date set forth in the first paragraph.
