The Company may deem and treat the registered holder(s) of the Warrant Certificates as the absolute owner(s) thereof (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing thereon made by anyone) for all purposes and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary. SECTION 10. Registration of Transfers and Exchanges. (a) The Company shall from time to time register the transfer of any outstanding Warrant Certificates in a Warrant register to be maintained by the Company upon surrender of such Warrant Certificates accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company, duly executed by the Holder or Holders thereof or by the duly appointed legal representative thereof or by a duly authorized attorney; provided, however, that prior to effecting such transfer, the transferee shall agree (in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company) to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. Upon any such registration of transfer, a new Warrant Certificate shall be issued to the transferee(s) and the surrendered Warrant Certificate shall be canceled and disposed of by the Company. Until the Warrant Certificate is transferred on the Warrant register of the Company, the Company may treat the Holder as shown in the Warrant register as the absolute owner of the Warrant Certificate for all purposes, and notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. The Company agrees that it will make the Warrant register available for inspection by the Holders during normal business hours at its office and that the Holders may rely on the Warrant register for purposes of complying with the preceding sentence. (b) The Warrants shall be transferable in whole or in part and, in the event that a Warrant Certificate is transferred in respect of fewer than all the Warrants evidenced by the Warrant Certificate, a new Warrant Certificate evidencing the remaining Warrant or Warrants will be issued and delivered pursuant to the provisions of this Section 10 and of Section 8. (c) If any transfer of Warrants or Warrant Shares is not made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, the Holder will, if reasonably requested by the Company, deliver to the Company an opinion of counsel, which may be counsel to the Holder but which must be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, reasonably satisfactory in form, scope and substance to the Company, that such Warrants or Warrant Shares may be sold without registration under the Securities Act, as well: (i) as an investment covenant reasonably satisfactory to the Company signed by the proposed transferee (except that no such covenant will be required in connection with a transfer effected in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act); and (ii) an agreement by such transferee to the impression of the restrictive legends set forth below on the Warrant Certificate or on the certificate evidencing such Warrant Shares. (d) The Holders agree that each Warrant Certificate and each certificate representing Warrant Shares will bear the following legend (the "Securities Legend"): "THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. SAID SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN EXEMPTION, OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL (WHICH MAY BE COUNSEL TO THE HOLDER REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY) AS TO AN EXEMPTION, FROM THE REGISTRATION PROVISIONS OF SAID ACT OR LAWS." (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 10, the restrictions upon the transferability of the Warrant Securities and the Securities Legend requirement set forth in this Section 10 shall terminate as to any of the Warrant Securities (i) when and so long as such Warrant Security shall have been effectively registered under the Securities Act and disposed of pursuant thereto or (ii) when the Company shall have received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to it that such Securities Legend is not required in order to ensure compliance with the Securities Act. Whenever the restrictions imposed by this Section 10 shall terminate as to any Warrant Securities, the Holder thereof shall be entitled to receive from the Company, a new Warrant Certificate or certificate for Warrant Shares bearing the following legend in place of the Securities Legend set forth above: "THE RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE TERMINATED ON ______________, 20__, AND ARE OF NO FURTHER FORCE AND EFFECT." (f) The Holders further agree that each Warrant Certificate and each certificate representing Warrant Shares will bear the following legend: "THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO THE TERMS OF A WARRANT PURCHASE AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF JANUARY 17, 2003, BETWEEN CREATIVE HOST SERVICES, INC. (THE "COMPANY") AND ING CAPITAL LLC (THE "PURCHASER"), AND A REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF JANUARY 17, 2003, BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE PURCHASER, COPIES OF EACH OF WHICH ARE ON FILE AT THE MAIN OFFICE OF THE COMPANY. ANY SALE OR TRANSFER OF THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE IS SUBJECT TO THE TERMS OF THOSE AGREEMENTS AND ANY SALE OR TRANSFER OF SUCH SECURITIES IN VIOLATION OF SAID AGREEMENTS SHALL BE INVALID." (g) Warrant Certificates may be exchanged at the option of the Holder(s) thereof when surrendered to the Company at its office for another Warrant Certificate or other Warrant Certificates of like tenor and representing in the aggregate a like number of Warrants, including, without limitation, upon an adjustment in the Exercise Price or in the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants. Warrant Certificates surrendered for exchange shall be canceled and disposed of by the Company. SECTION 11. Exercise of Warrants; Conversion of Warrants. (a) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Holder shall have the right, which may be exercised at any time or from time to time prior to January 17, 2012, to receive from the Company the number of fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares which such Holder may at the time be entitled to receive on exercise or any part of the Warrants and payment of the appropriate Exercise Price then in effect for such Warrant Shares. A Warrant may be exercised upon surrender to the Company at its office designated for such purpose (the address of which is set forth in Section 20) of the certificate or certificates evidencing the Warrants to be exercised with the form of election to purchase attached thereto properly completed and signed, upon payment to the Company of the appropriate Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares in respect of which such Warrants are then exercised. Payment of the aggregate Exercise Price shall be made in cash or by check payable to the order of the Company. Upon such surrender of Warrant Certificates and payment of the appropriate Exercise Price, the Company shall issue and cause to be delivered with all reasonable dispatch (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days of such surrender and payment) to or upon the written order of the Holder, and in the name of the Holder or the Holder's nominee, a certificate or certificates for the number of full Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of such Warrants together with such other property (including cash) and securities as may then be deliverable upon such exercise, including cash for fractional Warrant Shares as provided in Section 17. Such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have been issued and the Person so named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such Warrant Shares as of the date of the surrender of such Warrant Certificates and payment of the Exercise Price. (b) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Holder shall have the right (the "Conversion Right"), which may be exercised at any time or from time to time prior to January 17, 2012, to convert the Warrants, in whole or in part, into the number of fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares calculated pursuant to the following formula: X = Y (A-B) -------- A where: X = the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holders upon conversion; Y = the number of Warrant Shares for which the Conversion Right is being exercised; A = the Fair Market Value per Share as of the date of exercise of such Conversion Right; and B = the Exercise Price with respect to such Warrants. (c) A Warrant may be converted upon surrender to the Company at its office designated for such purpose (the address of which is set forth in Section 20) of the certificate or certificates evidencing the Warrants to be converted with the form of election to convert attached thereto properly completed and signed. Upon such surrender of Warrant Certificates, the Company shall issue and cause to be delivered with all reasonable dispatch (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days of such surrender) to or upon the written order of the Holder, and in the name of the Holder or the Holder's nominee, a certificate or certificates for the number of full Warrant Shares issuable upon the conversion of such Warrants together with such other property (including cash) and securities as may then be deliverable upon such conversion, including cash for fractional Warrant Shares as provided in Section 16. Such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have been issued and the Person so named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such Warrant Shares as of the date of the surrender of such Warrant Certificates. (d) The Warrants shall be exercisable and convertible, at the election of the Holders thereof, either in full or from time to time in part, and in the event that a Warrant Certificate is exercised or converted in respect of fewer than all of the Warrant Shares issuable pursuant to such Warrant Certificate at any time prior to the date of expiration of the Warrants, a new Warrant Certificate evidencing the remaining Warrant or Warrants will be issued and delivered pursuant to the provisions of this Section 11 and of Section 8. All Warrant Certificates surrendered upon exercise or conversion of Warrants shall be canceled and disposed of by the Company. The Company shall keep copies of this Agreement and any notices received hereunder available for inspection during normal business hours at its office. The Company will furnish, at its expense, copies of this Agreement and all such notices, upon request, to any Holder of any Warrant Certificates. SECTION 12. Payment of Taxes. The Company will pay all stamp and transfer taxes in connection with the issuance, sale and delivery of the Warrants hereunder, as well as all such taxes attributable to the initial issuance of Warrant Shares upon the exercise of Warrants and payment of the appropriate Exercise Price or upon conversion of the Warrants. The Company will not, however, be required to pay any tax or other similar charges imposed in connection with any transfer of any Warrant Securities. Nothing herein shall be construed as requiring the Company to pay any taxes imposed in respect of income realized by any Holder upon the purchase, transfer or exercise of Warrants. SECTION 13. Mutilated or Missing Warrant Certificates. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company (which shall include an affidavit of the Holder) that any Warrant Certificate shall have been mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, a customary indemnity agreement from the Holder of such Warrant Certificate, the Company shall issue, in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of the mutilated Warrant Certificate, or in lieu of and substitution for the Warrant Certificate lost, stolen or destroyed, a new Warrant Certificate of like tenor and representing an equal number of Warrants. SECTION 14. Reservation of Warrant Shares. The Company will at all times that any Warrant is exercisable reserve and keep available, free from preemptive or similar rights, out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued capital stock or its authorized and issued capital stock held in its treasury, for the purpose of enabling it to satisfy any obligation to issue Warrant Shares upon exercise or conversion of Warrants, the maximum number of shares of each class of capital stock constituting a part of the Warrant Shares which may then be deliverable upon the exercise or conversion of all outstanding Warrants. The Company shall cause all shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise or conversion of the Warrants to be (x) listed (or to be listed subject to notice of issuance) on each securities exchange on which shares of Common Stock are listed, or (y) admitted for trading in any inter-dealer quotation system on which shares of Common Stock are traded. The Company or, if appointed, the transfer agent for shares of each class of capital stock of the Company (the "Transfer Agent") and every subsequent transfer agent for any shares of the Company's capital stock issuable upon the exercise or conversion of the Warrants will be irrevocably authorized and directed at all times to reserve such number of authorized shares as shall be required for such purpose. The Company will keep a copy of this Agreement on file with the Transfer Agent and with every subsequent transfer agent for any shares of the Company's capital stock issuable upon the exercise of the rights of purchase or conversion represented by the Warrants. The Company will furnish such Transfer Agent a copy of all notices of adjustments, and certificates related thereto, transmitted to each Holder pursuant to Section 8. Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment pursuant to Section 15 to the maximum number of Warrant Shares deliverable upon the exercise of all outstanding Warrants the then authorized number of shares of Common Stock, the Company shall cause to be authorized additional shares of Common Stock such that such maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of all outstanding Warrants does not exceed the number of shares of Common Stock authorized pursuant to the Organic Documents of the Company. Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment pursuant to Section 15 to reduce the Exercise Price below the then par value (if any) of the Warrant Shares, the Company will take any corporate action which may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares at the Exercise Price as so adjusted. SECTION 15. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Warrant Shares Issuable. The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable or issued upon the exercise of each Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of any of the events enumerated in this Section 15. (a) Adjustment for Change in Capital Stock of the Company. If the Company (i) subdivides its outstanding shares of any class of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, (ii) combines its outstanding shares of any class of Common stock into a smaller number of shares, (iii) makes a distribution on any class of its Common Stock in shares of its Stock other than Common Stock, or (iv) issues by reclassification of any class of its Common Stock any shares of its Stock, then the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such action shall be proportionately adjusted so that the Holder of any Warrant thereafter exercised may receive the aggregate number and kind of shares of capital stock of the Company which it would have owned immediately following such action if such Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to such action. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event listed above shall occur, and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification. If after an adjustment a Holder of a Warrant upon exercise of such Warrant may receive shares of two or more classes of capital stock of the Company, the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine in the good faith exercise of its reasonable business judgment the allocation of the adjusted Exercise Price between the classes of capital stock. After such allocation, the exercise privilege and the Exercise Price of each class of capital stock shall thereafter be subject to adjustment on terms comparable to those in this Section 15. (b) Adjustment for Common Stock Issues. If the Company issues shares of Common Stock for a consideration per share less than the Fair Market Value per Share on the date the Company fixes the offering price of such additional shares, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted in accordance with the following formula: P - E' = E x (O + M) ------- A where: E' = the adjusted Exercise Price; E = the then current Exercise Price; O = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of such additional shares; P = the aggregate consideration received for the issuance of such additional shares; M = the Fair Market Value per Share on the date the Company fixes the offering price of such additional shares; and A = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the issuance of such additional shares. The adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such issuance is made, and shall become effective immediately after such issuance. This Section 15(b) does not apply to (i) the transactions described in Section 15(a) or (ii) any transaction for which an adjustment has been made pursuant to the provisions of Section 15(c) or Section 15(d), or (iii) the issuance of any Excluded Shares. (c) Adjustment for Convertible Securities Issues. If the Company issues any evidences of indebtedness, shares of stock or other securities which, with or without payment of additional consideration in cash or property, are convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock, whether or not the right to convert or exchange there-under is immediately exercisable or is conditioned upon the passage of time, the occurrence or non-occurrence of some other event, or both ("Convertible Securities"), for a consideration per share of Common Stock initially deliverable upon conversion or exchange of such Convert-ible Securities less than the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of issuance of such Convertible Securities, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted in accordance with the following formula: P - E' = E x O + M ------- O + D where: E' = the adjusted Exercise Price; E = the then current Exercise Price; O = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of such Convertible Securities; P = the aggregate consideration received for the issuance of such Convertible Securities; and M = the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of issuance of such Convertible Securities; and D = the maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise, conversion or in exchange of such Convertible Securities at the lowest price at which the Convertible Securities can be converted into or exchanged for Common Stock, regardless of whether such lowest price is the initial price or is conditioned upon the passage of time, the occurrence or non-occurrence of some other event, or both. The adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such issuance is made, and shall become effective immediately after such issuance. This Section 15(c) shall not apply to the issuance of any Convertible Securities for which an adjustment has been made pursuant to Section 15(d). (d) Adjustment for Right, Option and Warrant Issues. If the Company issues any rights, options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase or otherwise acquire Common Stock or Convertible Securities, whether or not the right to exercise such rights, options or warrants is immediately exercisable or is conditioned upon the passage of time, the occurrence or non-occurrence of some other event, or both (the "Option Securities"), for a consideration per share of Common Stock initially deliverable upon exercise of such Option Securities (and in the case of Option Securities to acquire Convertible Securities, upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities) less than the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of issuance of such Option Securities, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted in accordance with the following formula: P - E' = E x O + M ------- O + D where: E' = the adjusted Exercise Price; E = the then current Exercise Price; O = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of such Option Securities; P = the aggregate consideration received for the issuance of such Option Securities; M = the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of issuance of such Option Securities; and D = the maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise, conversion or in exchange of such Option Securities at the lowest price at which the Option Securities may be exercised to purchase or otherwise acquire Common Stock, regardless of whether the lowest price is the initial price or is conditioned upon the passage of time, the occurrence or non-occurrence of some other event, or both. The adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such issuance is made, and shall become effective immediately after such issuance. (e) Consideration Received. For purposes of any computation respecting consideration received pursuant to any subsection of this Section 15, the following shall apply: (i) In the case of the issuance of shares of Common Stock for cash, the consideration received shall be the amount of cash receivable by the Company therefor, without deduction therefrom of any reasonable expenses incurred by the Company in connection therewith or any reasonable underwriters' discounts, fees and commissions paid or allowed by the Company in connection therewith. (ii) In the case of the issuance of shares of Common Stock for a consideration consisting in whole or in part of other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall, subject to the following provision of this paragraph (ii), be deemed to be the fair market value thereof as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in the good faith exercise of its business judgment, without deduction therefrom of any reasonable expenses incurred by the Company in connection therewith. In any circumstances in which the fair market value of any such consideration is to be determined pursuant to this paragraph (ii), the Company shall give to the Holders written notice of the proposed fair market value, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company. If the Company and the Required Holders agree upon the fair market value then the fair market value for purposes of this paragraph (ii) shall be as so agreed. If the Required Holders and the Company do not agree upon such fair market value, then the Required Holders and the Company shall appoint a recognized investment banking firm of national reputation, reasonably acceptable to the Required Holders and the Company. If the Company and the Required Holders cannot agree on the appointment of a mutually acceptable investment banking firm, or if the firm so appointed declines or fails to serve, then the Required Holders and the Company shall each choose one such investment banking firm and the respective firms so chosen shall appoint another recognized investment banking firm of national reputation. The investment banking firm so selected shall appraise the fair market value for the purposes of this paragraph (ii), and such investment banking firm shall make such appraisal (which shall be in the form of a written report signed by such investment banking firm) and, for the purposes of determining the fair market value pursuant to this paragraph (ii), such appraised fair market value determined as herein provided shall be final and conclusive on the Company and the Holders. If the appraised value of the Company as determined by such investment banking firm is equal to or less than that determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in accordance with this paragraph (ii), then all fees and expenses of such investment banking firm shall be paid by the Holders requesting such appraisal. If the appraised value of the Company as determined by such investment banking firm is greater than that determined by the Board of Directors in accordance with this paragraph (ii), then all fees and expenses of such investment banking firm shall be paid by the Company. (iii) In the case of the issuance of Convertible Securities or Option Securities, the aggregate consideration received therefor shall be deemed to be the consideration received by the Company for the issuance of such Convertible Securities or Option Securities, as the case may be, plus the additional minimum consideration, if any, to be received by the Company upon the conversion, exchange or exercise thereof (the consideration in each case to be determined in the same manner as provided in clauses (i) and (ii) of this subsection (e)). (f) Reorganization of the Company. In the event of any capital reorganization, recapitalization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, or consolidation, merger or amalgamation of the Company with another entity, any acquisition of capital stock of the Company by means of a share exchange, or the sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets to another entity, then, as a condition of such reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, amalgamation, share exchange or sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby the Holders of the Warrant Certificates shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, on the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in this Agreement and in lieu of the Warrant Shares immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented by the Warrants, such shares of stock, securities, cash or property as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for the number of Warrant Shares immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented by the Warrant Certificates. If such consolidation, merger, amalgamation, share exchange, sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition is with any Person or group of Persons (within the meaning of Section 13(d) or 14(d) of the Exchange Act) who shall have made a purchase, tender or exchange offer which was accepted by the holders of not less than twenty percent (20%) of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company, the Holders of the Warrants shall have been given a reasonable opportunity (and, in no event, less than 30 days) to elect to receive, either (x) the stock, securities, cash or property it would have received pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence or (y) the stock, securities, cash or property issued or paid (or to be issued or paid) to holders of the Common Stock in accordance with such offer. In any such case appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holders of the Warrants to the end that the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustment of the Exercise Price and of the number and type of securities purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be, in relation to any shares of stock, securities, cash or property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of the Warrants. The Company shall not effect any such consolidation, merger, amalgamation, share exchange or sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof the successor entity (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation, merger or amalgamation, share exchange or the entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring such assets or shares (i) shall assume by a supplemental Warrant Agreement, satisfactory in form, scope and substance to the Required Holders (which shall be mailed or delivered to the Holders of the Warrants at the last address of such Holders appearing on the books of the Company) the obligation to deliver to such Holders such shares of stock, securities, cash or property as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such Holders may be entitled to purchase (the "Substitute Securities") and (ii) shall assume all of the obligations of the Company set forth in this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement. Following such assumption such obligations shall apply to the Substitute Securities rather than to the Warrant Shares. If the issuer of securities deliverable upon exercise of Warrants under the supplemental Warrant Agreement is an Affiliate of the formed, surviving, transferee or lessee entity, such issuer shall join the supplemental Warrant Agreement. The foregoing provisions of this paragraph shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, recapitalizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, amalgamations, share exchanges, sales, leases, transfers, conveyances or other dispositions. (g) Adjustment in Number of Shares. Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 15, each Warrant outstanding prior to the making of the adjustment in the Exercise Price shall thereafter evidence the right to receive upon payment of the adjusted Exercise Price that number of Warrant Shares (calculated to the nearest hundredth) obtained from the following formula: N'= N x E - E' where: N' = the adjusted number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of a Warrant by payment of the adjusted Exercise Price; N = the number of Warrant Shares previously issuable upon exercise of a Warrant by payment of the Exercise Price prior to adjustment; E' = the adjusted Exercise Price; and E = the Exercise Price prior to adjustment. (h) Special Adjustment in Respect of Exercise of Eight-Dollar Option Securities. In the event that after the Closing Date any Eight-Dollar Option Securities are exercised or converted, immediately prior to the conversion or exercise of any or all of the Warrants pursuant to Section 11, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of such Warrants shall be recalculated, and the number of Warrant Shares that have been issued shall be adjusted from time to time, in accordance with the following formula, after taking into account any other adjustments required under this Section 15: N'= N x FDS' ---- FDS where: N' = the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Warrants immediately following such adjustment; N = the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Warrants immediately prior to such adjustment; FDS = the number of Fully Diluted Shares prior to such exercise or conversion of Eight-Dollar Options; and FDS' = the number of Fully Diluted Shares immediately after such exercise or conversion of Eight-Dollar Options. SECTION 16. Determination of Fair Market Value per Share. (a) In any circumstance in which the Fair Market Value per Share is required to be determined in this Agreement, not later than ten (10) days following the date as of which such determination is required (and in any event prior to issuing any shares of Common Stock, any Convertible Securities or any Option Securities), the Company shall cause the Board of Directors of the Company to determine in good faith the Fair Market Value per Share. Within five (5) Business Days of such determination by the Board of Directors of the Company (but in no event later than thirty (30) days prior to issuance of Common Stock, Convertible Securities or Option Securities), the Company shall give the Holders written notice of the proposed Fair Market Value per Share. If the Company and such Holders agree upon the Fair Market Value per Share, then the Fair Market Value per Share shall be as so agreed. If the Company and the Required Holders do not agree upon such Fair Market Value per Share, then the Fair Market Value per Share shall be determined as provided in Section 16(b). (b) If the Required Holders and the Company do not agree upon such Fair Market Value per Share, then the Required Holders and the Company shall appoint a recognized investment banking firm of national reputation, reasonably acceptable to the Required Holders and the Company. If the Company and the Required Holders cannot agree on the appointment of a mutually acceptable investment banking firm, then the Required Holders and the Company shall each choose one such investment banking firm and the respective firms so chosen shall appoint another recognized investment banking firm of national reputation. The investment banking firm so selected shall appraise the value of the Company (which shall be in the form of a written report signed by such investment banking firm), and such appraised value of the Company determined as herein provided shall be final and conclusive and binding on the Company and the Holders. All fees and expenses of such investment banking firm shall be paid by the Company. SECTION 17. Fractional Interests. The Company shall not be required to issue fractional Warrant Shares on the exercise of Warrants. If more than one Warrant shall be presented for exercise in full at the same time by the same Holder, the number of full Warrant Shares which shall be issuable upon exercise thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of Warrant Shares purchasable on exercise of the Warrants so presented. If any fraction of the Warrant Shares would, except for the provisions of this Section 17, be issuable on the exercise of any Warrants (or specified portion thereof), the Company shall pay an amount in cash equal to the Fair Market Value per Share on the day immediately preceding the date the Warrant is presented for exercise, multiplied by such fraction. SECTION 18. Notice to Warrant Holders. Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price or number or type of securities purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants pursuant to Section 15, the Company shall promptly thereafter (i) upon the request of the Required Holders, cause to be filed with the Company a certificate of the chief financial officer of the Company setting forth the Exercise Price and the number and type of securities or other property constituting Warrant Shares after such adjustment and setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculations are based and, in the case of an adjustment pursuant to Section 15(f), setting forth the number and type of securities or other property constituting Warrant Shares (or portion thereof) issuable, after such adjustment in the Exercise Price or number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants, upon exercise of a Warrant and payment of the adjusted Exercise Price, and (ii) cause to be given to each of the Holders of the Warrant Certificates written notice of such adjustments, together with a copy of such certificate. Where appropriate, such notice may be given in advance and included as a part of the notice required to be given under the other provisions of this Section 18. In the event: (a) the Company shall authorize the issuance to holders (although not necessarily to all such holders) of shares of Stock or rights, options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase or otherwise acquire shares of Stock or of any other securities or property (including securities of any other issuer) or of any other subscription rights, options or warrants; or (b) the Company shall authorize the payment of any dividend or distribution to holders of shares of Stock of cash, Stock or other securities or property (including securities of any other issuer) of the Company; or (c) of any capital reorganization, reclassification or recapitalization of the Stock of the Company, or any amalgamation, consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, or any acquisition of Stock of the Company through a share exchange, or of the sale, lease, conveyance, transfer or other disposition of the properties and assets of the Company substantially as an entirety, or a purchase, tender or exchange offer for shares of Common Stock or other securities constituting part of the Warrant Shares (whether by the Company or some other party); or (d) of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company; or (e) the Company proposes to take any action which would require an adjustment of the Exercise Price or number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants pursuant to Section 15; then the Company shall cause to be given to each of the Holders, at least 20 days prior to the applicable record date hereinafter specified (or promptly in the case of events for which there is no record date), a written notice stating (as applicable) (i) the date as of which the holders of record of shares of Stock entitled to receive any such rights, options, warrants or dividends or distribution are to be determined, (ii) the date on which any such reclassification, recapitalization or reorganization, consolidation, merger, amalgamation, share exchange, sale, lease, conveyance, transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is expected to become effective or be consummated, or (iii) the initial expiration date set forth in any purchase, tender or exchange offer for shares of Stock, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of record of shares of Stock or other securities constituting a part of the Warrant Shares (or securities into which the Warrant Shares may be converted) shall be entitled to exchange such shares or securities for securities or other property, if any, deliverable upon such reclassification, recapitalization, reorganization, consolidation, merger, amalgamation, share exchange, sale, lease, conveyance, transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up. Nothing contained in this Agreement or in any of the Warrant Certificates shall be construed as conferring upon the Holders the right to vote or to consent as stockholders in respect of the meetings of stockholders or the election of members of the Board of Directors of the Company or any other matter, or any rights whatsoever as stockholders of the Company. SECTION 19. Tag-Along Rights; Limitation on Put Rights. (a) If at any time the Company shall determine to enter into any transaction or series of transactions that would result in a Change of Control (a "Change of Control Transaction") (any third party proposing to enter into such transaction or transactions being hereinafter referred to as a "Prospective Purchaser"), the Company and any Prospective Purchaser shall first give written notice (the "Offer Notice") to all of the Holders, specifying the name and address of the Prospective Purchaser and the number of shares, if any, of Stock proposed to be issued, sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of and setting forth in reasonable detail the price, structure and other terms and conditions of the Change of Control Transaction. The Offer Notice shall represent the offer (the "Offer") from the Prospective Purchaser to each of the Holders of the right to sell to the Prospective Purchaser as a condition to the consummation of the proposed transaction described in the Offer Notice, all Warrant Securities then owned by each Holder to the Prospective Purchaser and, at the option of the Holders, on the same terms and conditions (including price and form of consideration) as are being offered by the Prospective Purchaser to the Company or at the Fair Market Value per Share, determined as of the date of the Offer Notice, minus the Exercise Price (if any). Each Holder shall have thirty (30) days from the date of receipt of the Offer Notice to give written notice of its intention to accept or reject the Offer. Failure to respond within such thirty-day period shall be deemed notice of rejection. In the event that any Holder gives written notice to the Company and the Prospective Purchaser of its intention to accept such Offer, then such written notice, taken in conjunction with the Offer Notice, shall constitute a valid and legally binding agreement, and each of the Holders so giving such written notice shall be entitled to sell to the Prospective Purchaser, contemporaneously with the consummation of the Change of Control Transaction, all of the Warrant Securities at the price specified therefor by such Holder in accordance with this Section 19(a). In the event that all of the Holders reject or are deemed to have rejected the offer represented by the Offer Notice, the Company shall be free to proceed to consummate such Change of Control Transaction on the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer Notice, provided that such sale is not otherwise prohibited by any agreement between the Company and the Purchaser. In the event the Company fails to complete the proposed sale, transfer or other disposition within ninety (90) days after the Holder or Holders rejected or were deemed to have rejected the Offer, such transaction or transactions shall again be subject to the provisions of this Section 19(a). The provisions of this Section 19(a) shall apply until the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 24 to any Person who acquires in any manner any Warrant Securities from any Holder. (b) The Company covenants and agrees that, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall, directly or indirectly, grant to any Person or agree to or otherwise become obligated in respect of any rights to require the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to purchase securities of the Company upon the demand of any Person.

If and to the extent that the foregoing undertaking may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. The foregoing indemnity shall become effective immediately upon the execution and delivery hereof and shall remain operative and in full force and effect notwithstanding the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereunder, the issuance or exercise of the Warrants hereunder, the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 24, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Warrant Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of any Holder or the Purchaser. SECTION 23. Successors. All the covenants and provisions of this Agreement by or for the benefit of the Company or the Holders shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns, including those by operation of law, merger, consolidation or as otherwise provided in Section 15(f).

SECTION 26. Benefits of this Agreement.

No provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived except by an instrument in writing signed by the party sought to be bound; provided, however, that any amendment requested or waiver sought from the Holders of any provision of this Agreement which affects Holders generally may be given by the Required Holders and any waiver so given shall be binding on all Holders; provided further, that the provisions of Section 11 with respect to the type of securities for which the Warrants are exercisable may not be changed without the consent of each Holder affected thereby. No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a waiver of a particular right or remedy on one occasion be deemed a waiver of any other right or remedy or a waiver of the same right or remedy on any subsequent occasion. SECTION 29. Waiver of Jury Trial. THE PURCHASER, EACH HOLDER AND THE COMPANY HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHTS THEY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, ON THE WARRANTS OR ON ANY OF THE OTHER WARRANT DOCUMENTS, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS AGREEMENT, THE WARRANTS OR ANY OF THE OTHER WARRANT DOCUMENTS, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF THE PURCHASER, ANY HOLDER OR THE COMPANY. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE PURCHASER'S ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT. SECTION 30. Jurisdiction. The Company hereby agrees that any legal action or proceeding against it with respect to this Agreement, the Warrants or any of the other Warrant Documents may be brought in the courts of the State of New York or of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York as any Holder may elect, and, by execution and delivery hereof, it consents for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, to and accepts the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts and agrees that such jurisdiction shall be exclusive, unless waived by the Required Holders in writing, with respect to any action or proceeding brought by it against such Holders. The Company hereby irrevocably designates, appoints and empowers CT Corporation System, whose present address is 111 Eighth Avenue, New York, New York 10011, as its authorized agent to receive, for and on its behalf and its property, service of process in the State of New York when and as such legal actions or proceedings may be brought in the courts of the State of New York or of the United States of America sitting in New York, and such service of process shall be deemed complete upon the date of delivery thereof to such agent whether or not such agent gives notice thereof to the Company, or upon the earliest of any other date permitted by applicable law. The Company shall furnish the consent of CT Corporation System so to act to the Agent on or prior to the Closing Date. It is understood that a copy of said process served on such agent will as soon as practicable be forwarded to the Company, at its address set forth below, but its failure to receive such copy shall not affect in any way the service of said process on said agent as the agent of the Company. The Company irrevocably consents to the service of process out of any of the aforementioned courts in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of the copies thereof by certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, to it at its address set forth herein, such service to become effective upon the earlier of (i) the date 10 calendar days after such mailing and (ii) any earlier date permitted by applicable law. The Company agrees that Sections 5-1401 and 5-1402 of the General Obligations Law of the State of New York shall apply to this Agreement and each of the other Warrant Documents and waives any right to stay or to dismiss any action or proceeding brought before said courts on the basis of forum non conveniens. Nothing herein shall affect the right of any Holder to bring proceedings against the Company in the courts of any other jurisdiction or to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable law. SECTION 31. Specific Performance. The Company recognizes that the rights of the Holders under this Agreement and the other Warrant Documents are unique and, accordingly, the Holders shall, in addition to such other remedies as may be available to any of them at law or in equity, have the right to enforce their rights hereunder and thereunder by actions for injunctive relief and specific performance to the extent permitted by law. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Warrant Documents and hereby agrees to waive in any action for specific performance the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate. This Agreement is not intended to limit or abridge any rights of the Holders which may exist apart from this Agreement. SECTION 32. Confidentiality. The Holders shall hold all non-public, proprietary or confidential information (which has been identified as such by the Company) obtained pursuant to the requirements of this Agreement in accordance with their customary procedures for handling confidential information of this nature; provided, however, that each Holder may make disclosure of any such information to its examiners, Affiliates, outside auditors, counsel, consultants, appraisers and other professional advisors in connection with this Agreement or as reasonably required by any proposed transferee in connection with the contemplated transfer of any Warrant Securities (but only if the proposed transferee agrees to be bound by the terms of this Section 32) or as required or requested by an Governmental Authority or representative thereof or in connection with the enforcement hereof or of any other Warrant Document or pursuant to legal process. In no event shall any Holder be obligated or required to return any materials furnished to it by the Company. SECTION 33. Entire Agreement. The parties hereto agree that this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and the Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between them as to such subject matter; and there are no restrictions, agreements, arrangements, oral or written, between any or all of the parties relating to the subject matter hereof which are not fully expressed or referred to herein or therein. SECTION 34. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held or deemed to be, or shall in fact be, invalid, inoperative or unenforceable as applied to any particular case in any jurisdiction or jurisdictions, or in all jurisdictions or in all cases, because of the conflict of any provision with any constitution, statute, rule or public policy, or for any other reason, such circumstances shall not have the effect of rendering the provision or provisions in question, invalid, inoperative or unenforceable in any other jurisdiction or in any other case or circumstance or of rendering any other provision or provisions herein contained invalid, inoperative or unenforceable to the extent that such other provisions are not themselves actually in conflict with such constitution, statute, rule or public policy, but this Agreement shall be reformed and construed in any such jurisdiction or case as if such invalid, inoperative or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein and such provision reformed so that it would be valid, operative and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted in such jurisdiction or in such case. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized as of the day and year first above written.
