(a) The Company may deliver Warrant Certificates evidencing Universal Warrants of any series executed by the Company to the Warrant Agent for countersignature together with the applicable documents referred to below in this Section, and the Warrant Agent shall thereupon countersign and deliver such Warrant Certificates to or upon the order of the Company (contained in the Issuer Order (as defined below) referred to below in this Section) or pursuant to such procedures acceptable to the Warrant Agent as may be specified from time to time by an Issuer Order. Any terms of the Universal Warrants evidenced by such Warrant Certificates may be determined by or pursuant to such Issuer Order or such other procedures. If provided for in such procedures, such Issuer Order may authorize countersignature and delivery pursuant to oral instructions from the Company or its duly authorized agent, which instructions shall be promptly confirmed in writing. In countersigning such Warrant Certificates and accepting the responsibilities under this Agreement in relation to the Universal Warrants evidenced by such Warrant Certificates, the Warrant Agent shall be entitled to receive (in the case of subparagraphs 1.04(a)(ii)2, 1.04(a)(iii) 3 and 1.04(a)(iv) 4 below only at or before the time of the first request of the Company to the Warrant Agent to countersign Warrant Certificates in a particular form evidencing Universal Warrants) and shall be fully protected in relying upon, unless and until such documents have been superseded or revoked:
(i1) an Issuer Order requesting such countersignature and setting forth delivery instructions if the Warrant Certificates are not to be delivered to the Company;
(ii2) any Board Resolution, Officer's Certificate and/or executed supplemental agreement pursuant to which the forms and terms of the Universal Warrants evidenced by such Warrant Certificates were established;
(iii3) an Officer's Certificate setting forth the forms and terms of the Universal Warrants evidenced by such Warrant Certificates stating that the form or forms and terms of the Universal Warrants evidenced by such Warrant Certificates have been established pursuant to Sections 1.02 and 1.03 and comply with this Agreement, and covering such other matters as the Warrant Agent may reasonably request; and
(iv4) At the option of the Company, either an Opinion of Counsel (as defined below) or a letter addressed to the Warrant Agent permitting it to rely on an Opinion of Counsel, substantially to the effect that:
(Ai) the forms of the Warrant Certificates have been duly authorized and established in conformity with the provisions of this Agreement;
(Bii) in the case of an underwritten offering, the terms of the Universal Warrants have been duly authorized and established in conformity with the provisions of this Agreement and, in the case of an offering that is not underwritten, certain terms of the Universal Warrants have been established pursuant to a Board Resolution, an Officer's Certificate or a supplemental agreement in accordance with this Agreement, and when such other terms as are to be established pursuant to procedures set forth in an Issuer Order shall have been established, all terms will have been duly authorized by the Company and will have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Agreement; and
(Ciii) when the Warrant Certificates have been executed by the Company and countersigned by the Warrant Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and delivered to and duly paid for by the purchasers thereof, subject to such other conditions as may be set forth in such opinion of counsel, they will have been duly issued under this Agreement and the Universal Warrants evidenced thereby will be valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, and will be entitled to the benefits of this Agreement. In rendering such opinions, such counsel may qualify any opinions as to enforceability by stating that such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation, moratorium and other similar laws affecting the rights and remedies of creditors and is subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). Such counsel may rely, as to all matters governed by the laws of jurisdictions other than the State of New York and the federal law of the United States, upon opinions of other counsel (copies of which shall be delivered to the Warrant Agent), who shall be counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Warrant Agent, in which case the opinion shall state that such counsel believes he and the Warrant Agent are entitled so to rely. Such counsel may also state that, insofar as such opinion involves factual matters, such counsel has relied, to the extent such counsel deems proper, upon certificates of officers of the Company and its subsidiaries and certificates of public officials.
