(f) Adjustments to Exchange Ratio.  The Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted (such adjustment to be subject to the consent of the Company, which shall not be unreasonably withheld) to reflect appropriately the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Parent Common Stock or Company Common Stock), reorganization, recapitalization or other like change with respect to Parent Common Stock or Company Common Stock occurring on or after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time.
 
(g) Fractional Shares.  No fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock will be issued by virtue of the Merger, but in lieu thereof each holder of shares of Company Common Stock who would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock (after aggregating all fractional shares of Parent Common Stock to be received by such holder) shall receive from Parent one full share of Parent Common Stock (i.e. rounded up to the nearest whole share).

Upon surrender of Certificates for cancellation to the Exchange Agent or to such other agent or agents as may be appointed by Parent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, the holders of such Certificates shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor certificates representing the number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock which such holders have the right to receive and the Certificates so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled.

(c) The Company shall give Parent (i) prompt notice of any written demand for appraisal received by the Company pursuant to the applicable provisions of Nevada Law and (ii) the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands.  The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, voluntarily make any payment or offer to make any payment with respect to any such demands or offer to settle or settle any such demands.  Any payments relating to Dissenting Shares shall be made solely by the Surviving Corporation, and no funds or other property will be provided by Merger Sub.
