This Warrant shall be exercisable at any time, and from time to time, from and after the date hereof (the Initial Exercise Date) to and including 5:00 P.M., Central Standard Time on the date that is ten years after the Initial Exercise Date (the Expiration Date). The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares are subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in Section 6.

The number of Warrant Shares that the Warrantholder shall have the right to subscribe for and purchase from the Company is subject to adjustment as provided in Section 6.
1.2. EXERCISE PRICE. The exercise price per Warrant Share shall be $4.00, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 6 (the Exercise Price).
SECTION 2. DURATION AND EXERCISE OF WARRANT; LIMITATION ON EXERCISE; TAXES; TRANSFER; DIVISIBILITY.
2.1. DURATION AND EXERCISE OF WARRANT. This Warrant is immediately exercisable on the Initial Exercise Date and may be exercised, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time from and after the Initial Exercise Date to the Expiration Date. The rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised by the Warrantholder of record, in whole or in part, from time to time, by (a) surrender of this Warrant, accompanied by the Exercise Form annexed hereto (the Exercise Form) duly executed by the Warrantholder of record and specifying the number of Warrants Shares to be purchased to the Company at the office of the Company located at 6307 Waterford Blvd., Suite 100, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73118, Attention: Lisa Holbrook, Esq. (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to the Warrantholder at the address of such Warrantholder appearing on the books of the Company), during normal business hours on any day (a Business Day) other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which the New York Stock Exchange is authorized to close (a Nonbusiness Day), or after 9:00 A.M. Central Standard Time on the Initial Exercise Date, but not later than 5:00 P.M. Central Standard Time on the Expiration Date (or 5:00 P.M. on the next succeeding Business Day, if the Expiration Date is a Nonbusiness Day), (b) payment of the Exercise Price by (i) delivery to the Company in cash or by certified or official bank check in New York Clearing House Funds, of an amount equal to the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares specified in the Exercise Form, (ii) delivery to the Company of such number of shares of Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series A, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company having a Liquidation Preference plus accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, equal to the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares specified in the Exercise Form, (iii) a combination of (i) and (ii), or (iv) notice that the Warrantholder elects to effect a cashless exercise as contemplated by Subsection 2.6, and (c) such documentation as to the identity and authority of the Warrantholder as the Company may reasonably request. Such Warrant Shares shall be deemed by the Company to be issued to the Warrantholder as the record holder of such Warrant Shares as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered and payment made for the Warrant Shares as aforesaid. Certificates for the Warrant Shares specified in the Exercise Form shall be delivered to the Warrantholder as promptly as practicable, and in any event within ten (10) Business Days, thereafter. The stock certificates so delivered shall be in denominations as may be specified by the Warrantholder and shall be issued in the name of the Warrantholder or, if permitted by Subsection 2.4 and in accordance with the provisions thereof, such other name as shall be designated in the Exercise Form. If this Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the certificates for the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Warrantholder a new Warrant evidencing the rights to purchase the remaining Warrant Shares, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant. No adjustments or payments shall be made on or in respect of Warrant Shares issuable on the exercise of this Warrant for any cash dividends paid or payable to holders of record of Common Stock prior to the date as of which the Warrantholder shall be deemed to be the record holder of such Warrant Shares.
2
2.2. LIMITATION ON EXERCISE. If this Warrant is not exercised prior to 5:00 P.M. Central Standard Time on the Expiration Date (or the next succeeding Business Day, if the Expiration Date is a Nonbusiness Day), this Warrant, or any new Warrant issued pursuant to Subsection 2.1, shall cease to be exercisable and shall become void, and all rights of the Warrantholder hereunder shall cease.
2.3. PAYMENT OF TAXES. The issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Warrantholder for any stock transfer or other issuance tax in respect thereto; provided, however, that the Warrantholder shall be required to pay any and all taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any certificates for Warrant Shares in a name other than that of the then Warrantholder as reflected upon the books of the Company.
2.4. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER. Neither this Warrant nor any of the Warrant Shares may be transferred or sold, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of the Company and except in compliance with applicable United States federal and state securities laws. Subject to the foregoing, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, by the Warrantholder and any such transfer is registrable at the office of the Company referred to in Subsection 7.6(a) by the Warrantholder in person or by its duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant in accordance with Section 4. The Company may not transfer or assign any of its rights or obligations under this Warrant, or any portion thereof.
2.5. DIVISIBILITY OF WARRANT. This Warrant may be divided into multiple warrants upon surrender at the office of the Company referred to in Subsection 7.6(a) on any Business Day, without charge to the Warrantholder.
2.6. CASHLESS EXERCISE. At the option of the Warrantholder, the Warrantholder may exercise this Warrant, without a cash payment of the Exercise Price, through a reduction in the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant. Such reduction may be effected by designating that the number of the shares of Common Stock issuable to the Warrantholder upon such exercise shall be reduced by the number of shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value as of the date of exercise equal to the amount of the total Exercise Price for such exercise. For purposes of this Warrant, the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on any date in question shall be the average closing sale price of the Common Stock on the principal stock exchange, stock market or quotation market on which the Common Stock is traded for the thirty (30) Business Days immediately preceding such date, as quoted in The Wall Street Journal or other nationally recognized, reputable publication. If the Common Stock is not listed or qualified for trading or quotation on a stock exchange or stock market or national quotation system at such time, then the Fair Market Value shall be determined using such method as the Warrantholder and the Company shall agree. In connection with any cashless exercise, no cash or other consideration will be paid by the Warrantholder in connection with such exercise other than the surrender of the Warrant itself, and no commission or other remuneration will be paid or given by the Warrantholder or the Company in connection with such exercise.

SECTION 3. RESERVATION OF SHARES.
All Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, upon issuance and payment of the Exercise Price in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all taxes, liens, security interests, charges and other encumbrances with respect to the issuance thereof other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issuance. The issuance of the Warrant Shares pursuant hereto will not be subject to, and will not violate, any preemptive or similar rights. During the period within which this Warrant may be exercised, the Company shall at all times have authorized and reserved, and keep available and free from preemptive or similar rights, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the exercise of this Warrant and of all other options or rights to purchase or subscribe for Common Stock and the conversion or exchange of all convertible or exchangeable securities of the Company.
SECTION 4. EXCHANGE, LOSS OR DESTRUCTION OF WARRANT.
If permitted by Subsection 2.4 or 2.5, upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company with a duly executed instrument of assignment and funds sufficient to pay any transfer tax, the Company shall, without charge, execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor in the name of the assignee named in such instrument of assignment and this Warrant shall promptly be canceled. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, the Company will execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor.
SECTION 5. OWNERSHIP OF WARRANT.
The Company may deem and treat the person or entity in whose name this Warrant is registered as the holder and owner hereof (notwithstanding any notations of ownership or writing hereon made by anyone other than the Company) for all purposes and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary, until presentation of this Warrant for registration of transfer as provided in Subsections 2.1 and 2.5 or in Section 4.
SECTION 6. CERTAIN ADJUSTMENTS.
The Exercise Price at which Warrant Shares may be purchased hereunder and the number of Warrant Shares to be purchased upon exercise hereof are subject to change or adjustment as follows:
6.1. NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENT. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares or the Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall promptly send by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the Warrantholder, notice of such adjustment.
6.2. PRESERVATION OF PURCHASE RIGHTS UPON MERGER, CONSOLIDATION. In case of any consolidation of the Company with or merger of the Company with or into another entity or in case of any sale, transfer or lease to another entity of all or substantially all the assets or stock of the Company, the Warrantholder shall have the right thereafter upon payment of the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such action to
4
receive upon exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares and other securities and property which such holder would have been entitled to receive after the happening of such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or lease had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such action, and the Company or such successor or purchasing entity, as the case may be, shall execute with the Warrantholder an agreement to that effect. Such agreement shall provide for adjustments, which shall be as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 6. The provisions of this Subsection 6.2 shall apply similarly to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or leases.
6.3. ADJUSTMENTS.
(a) | Stock Dividends, Distributions or Subdivisions. In the event the Company at any time or from time after the date hereof shall issue additional shares of Common Stock pursuant to a stock dividend, stock distribution, subdivision, share split or reclassification, then, and in each such case, concurrently with the effectiveness of such event, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such event shall be proportionately decreased with the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such event shall be proportionately increased. |
(b) | Combinations or Consolidations. In the event the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be combined or consolidated, by reclassification, reverse split or otherwise, into a lesser number of shares of Common Stock, concurrently with the effectiveness of such event, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such event shall be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such event shall be proportionately decreased. |
(c) | Issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock. |
(i) | In the event the Company at any time or from time to time after the date hereof shall issue or sell Additional Shares (as defined below) without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance, then the Exercise Price shall be reduced to the price at which such Additional Shares are issued. The total number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased under the Warrant shall be increased by dividing the new Exercise Price into the aggregate exercise amount of the Warrant prior to the lowering of the Exercise Price. |
(ii) | In the event the Company shall issue Additional Shares for a consideration per share less than the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock as of the date of such issuance, but greater than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance, then the |
5
Exercise Price shall be reduced (but in no event increased) to the amount determined by multiplying such Exercise Price by a fraction: |
(A) | the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Shares plus the number of shares of Common Stock that the aggregate consideration, if any, received by the Company for the Additional Shares so issued would purchase at a price equal to the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock as of the date of issuance; and |
(B) | the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Shares plus the number of Additional Shares so issued. The total number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased under the Warrant shall be increased by dividing the new Exercise Price into the aggregate exercise amount of the Warrant prior to the lowering of the Exercise Price. |
(iii) | If the Company issues Common Stock for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined by mutual agreement of the Warrantholder and the Company. |
(iv) | If the Company issues options or rights to purchase or subscribe for Common Stock, securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock or options or rights to purchase or subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities, the following provisions shall apply for all purposes of calculating the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding under this Subsection 6.3 upon the Exercise of the Warrants: |
(A) | The aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise (assuming the satisfaction of any conditions to exercisability including, without limitation, the passage of time, but without taking into account potential antidilution adjustments) of such options or rights to purchase or subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such options or rights were issued and for a consideration equal to the consideration, if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such options or rights plus the exercise price provided in such options or rights (without taking into account potential antidilution adjustments) for the Common Stock covered thereby. |
6
(B) | The aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of or in exchange (assuming the satisfaction of any conditions to convertibility or exchangeability, including, without limitation, the passage of time, but without taking into account potential antidilution adjustments) for any such convertible or exchangeable securities, or options or rights to purchase or subscribe therefore, shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued or such options or rights were issued and for consideration equal to the consideration, if any, received by the Company for any such securities and related options or rights (excluding any cash received on account of accrued interest or accrued dividends), plus the additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Company (without taking into account potential antidilution adjustments) upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related options or rights. |
(C) | In the event of any change in the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable or in the consideration payable to the Company upon exercise of such options or rights or upon conversion of or in exchange for such convertible or exchangeable securities, including, but not limited to, a change resulting from the antidilution provisions thereof, the Exercise Price, to the extent previously adjusted upon the issuance of such options, rights or securities, shall be readjusted to reflect such change, but no further adjustment shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock or any payment of such consideration upon the exercise of any such options or rights or the conversion or exchange of such securities. |
(D) | Upon the expiration of any such options or rights, the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange or the expiration of any options or rights related to such convertible or exchangeable securities, the Exercise Price, to the extent previously adjusted upon the issuance of such options, rights or securities or options or rights related to such securities, shall be readjusted to reflect the issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock (and convertible or exchangeable securities which remain in effect) actually issued upon the exercise of such options or rights, upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or upon the exercise of the options or rights related to such securities. |
7
(E) | The number of shares of Common Stock deemed issued and the consideration deemed paid therefore pursuant to Subsections 6.3(c)(iv)(A) and (B) shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect any change, termination or expiration of the type described in either Subsection 6.3(c)(iv)(C) or (D). |
(F) | Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Subsection 6.3(c)(iv), the adjustments required by this Subsection 6.3 with respect to the issuance of options under employee benefit plans of the Company shall be made, in the aggregate, only after the Warrantholder has notified the Company that it intends to exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, at which time the required adjustments shall be made with respect to all such options that shall have been issued on or prior to the date of such notice and remain outstanding (it being understood that if any such options are actually exercised prior thereto, the appropriate adjustments, if any, shall be made pursuant to the applicable provision of this subsection 6.3(c) at the time of exercise). |
(v) | Additional Shares shall mean any shares of Common Stock issued (or deemed to have been issued as contemplated by Subsection 6.3(c)(iv)) by the Company on or after the date of this Warrant other than (i) the Common Stock issued upon exercise of the Warrants, (ii) the issuance and sale of, or the grant of options to purchase up to 100,000 shares (subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 6.3(a) or (b)) of Common Stock, after the date of this Warrant, to employees, directors or officers of, or bona fide consultants to, the Company pursuant to stock plans or options or agreements adopted or approved by the Companys Board of Directors, and (iii) Common Stock issued pursuant to the exercise of any stock option, warrant or other right to purchase Common Stock outstanding on the date of this Warrant. |
(vi) | Warrants shall mean the warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock issued by the Company pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement (as defined below). |
SECTION 7. MISCELLANEOUS.
7.1. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Warrant was issued pursuant to the terms and conditions of a certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 31, 2001, by and among the Company and, among others, the Warrantholder (the Securities Purchase Agreement).
