Registration of Warrant Shares (a) If (but without any obligation to do so) the Company proposes to register (including for this purpose a registration effected by the Company for stockholders other than the Holders) any of its stock or other securities under the Act in connection with the public offering of such securities solely for cash (other than a registration statement relating either to the sale of securities to employees of the Company pursuant to a stock option, stock purchase or similar plan or a SEC Rule 145 transaction), the Company shall, at such time, promptly give each Holder written notice of such proposed registration. Upon the written request of each Holder given within twenty (20) days after mailing of such notice by the Company in accordance with Section 18(d) hereof, the Company shall, subject to the provisions of Section 8(c), endeavor to cause to be registered under the Act all of the Warrant Shares that each such Holder has requested to be registered.
(b) Whenever required under this Section 8(a) to effect the registration of any Warrant Shares, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible use reasonable efforts to (i) file a registration statement (the "Registration Statement"), registering for resale the Warrant Shares and (ii) cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act") as soon thereafter as reasonably practicable. The Company promptly shall provide each Holder with such copies of the final prospectus contained in the Registration Statement after it becomes effective as they shall reasonably request. In addition, the Company shall (a) use reasonable efforts to keep the Registration Statement effective for a period ending on the earlier of (x) 120 days from its effective date or (y) when all such Warrant Shares can be sold without limitation or delay under Rule 144 and (b) file all reports and forms required to be filed by it under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Reports") on a timely basis so long as each Holder owns any Warrant Shares and shall provide each Holder copies thereof when filed.
(c) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Company shall be entitled to postpone the filing of the Registration Statement otherwise required to be prepared and filed by it in accordance with subparagraph (b) or, in the event the Registration Statement has been declared effective, without suspending such effectiveness, instruct the Holder promptly in writing (or any subsequent holders thereof) not to sell or distribute any Warrant Shares (a "Delay") as long as the reason for non-disclosure continues, if the Company would be required to disclose in the Registration Statement the existence of any fact relating to a material business situation, transaction or negotiation, or would be required to disclose information that the Company has not otherwise made public, in each case, that the Company reasonably determines is in the best interests of the Company not to disclose at such time, and unless and until each Holder furnishes to the Company in writing information that may be required to prepare the disclosure required by Items 507 and 508 of Regulation S-B promulgated under the Act, with respect to such Holder's Warrant Shares being sold under the Registration Statement provided that, with respect to Delays because of information related to the Company (rather than disclosure required to be provided by the holders), the Company shall only be entitled to a maximum of three (3) Delays, each Delay not to exceed a period of thirty (30) days; and further provided, that no period of Delay shall commence within 60 days of a previous Delay.
(d) Each Holder shall (i) reasonably cooperate with the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement and execute and deliver any agreements or instruments reasonably requested by the Company or its counsel in connection therewith and (ii) upon discovery that, or upon the happening of any event as a result of which, the Registration Statement (or any prospectus included therein), as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made (as determined by the Company or its counsel in its sole discretion), forthwith discontinue its disposition of Warrant Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement, until such time as such Holder (or any holders) have received a supplemented or amended prospectus from the Company relating thereto. The Company agrees to use its best efforts to prepare any necessary amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement as soon as reasonably practicable after the same becomes necessary and to provide to each Holder quantities of such amendments or supplements reasonably sufficient for the distribution thereof.
(e) The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Holder and its respective officers, directors, employees, members, agents, affiliates and control persons (each of the foregoing, a "Holder Indemnitee") who is or may be a party or is or may be threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative by reason of or arising from any actual or alleged misrepresentation or misstatement of facts or omission to represent or state any fact or omission to state a fact necessary to make the facts stated under the circumstances not materially misleading, in the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto or to the prospectus incorporated therein from and against any claim, losses, liabilities, costs and expenses (including attorney's fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement) ("Loss") actually and reasonably incurred by any such Holder Indemnitee in connection with such claim, action, suit or proceeding or the defense thereof, except to the extent such Loss is the direct result of a misstatement or omission for which such Holder Indemnitee is liable to the Company under Section 9(i); provided, however, that the indemnification contained in this Section 8(e) with respect to any preliminary prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Holder Indemnitee on account of any such Loss arising from the sale of the Warrant Shares by such Holder Indemnitee to any person if a copy of the definitive prospectus shall not have been delivered or sent to such person within the time required by the Act and the regulations thereunder, and an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission of a material fact contained in such preliminary prospectus was corrected in the definitive prospectus.
(f) In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of shares of the Company’s capital stock, the Company shall not be required under Section 8(a) to include any of the Holders’ Warrant Shares in such underwriting unless they accept the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters selected by it (or by other persons entitled to select the underwriters), and then only in such quantity as the underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering by the Company. If the total amount of securities, including Warrant Shares, requested by stockholders to be included in such offering exceeds the amount of securities sold other than by the Company that the underwriters determine in their sole discretion is compatible with the success of the offering, then the Company shall be required to include in the offering only that number of such securities, including Warrant Shares, which the underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering (the securities so included to be apportioned pro rata among the selling stockholders according to the total amount of securities entitled to be included therein owned by each selling stockholder or in such other proportions as shall mutually be agreed to by such selling stockholders).
Delivery of Warrant Shares The Company shall deliver to the holder __________ Warrant Shares in accordance with the terms of the Warrant.
Authorization of Warrant Shares The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by the Company in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).
Listing of Warrant Shares Company shall have submitted an application for the listing of the Warrant Shares on the Exchange, and such application and listing shall have been approved by the Exchange, subject only to official notice of issuance, in each case, on or prior to the Premium Payment Date. Company agrees and acknowledges that such submission and approval shall be a condition precedent for the purpose of Section 2(a)(iii) of the Agreement with respect to each obligation of Dealer under Section 2(a)(i) of the Agreement.
Reservation of Warrant Shares The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued and otherwise unreserved Common Stock, solely for the purpose of enabling it to issue Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant as herein provided, the number of Warrant Shares which are then issuable and deliverable upon the exercise of this entire Warrant, free from preemptive rights or any other contingent purchase rights of Persons other than the Holder (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 9). The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares so issuable and deliverable shall, upon issuance and the payment of the applicable Exercise Price in accordance with the terms hereof, be duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid and nonassessable.
Issuance and Registration of Warrants The Issuer hereby agrees to issue and deliver to Creditanstalt or, at the option of Creditanstalt, an Affiliate thereof, new Warrant Certificates evidencing the outstanding Series D Warrants and Series E Warrants as hereby amended. Upon receipt of such new Warrant Certificates, Creditanstalt shall deliver to the Issuer for cancellation the old Warrant Certificates for Series D Warrants. On the date hereof, the Issuer shall register the new Warrant Certificates in the Warrant Register in the name of Creditanstalt or an Affiliate thereof as the case may be.

Registration of Warrant The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the "Warrant Register"), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by notice to the contrary.
Term of Warrants; Exercise of Warrants (a) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Holder shall have the right, at any time during the period commencing on the "Exercisability Date" (hereinafter defined), and ending at 5:00 p.m., New York, New York time, on December 26, 2006 (the "Termination Date"), to purchase from the Company up to the number of Shares which the Holder may at the time be entitled to purchase pursuant to this Agreement and the portion of the Warrant (or certificate therefor) then held by it, upon surrender to the Company, at its principal office in Dallas, Texas, of the certificate evidencing the portion of the Warrant to be exercised together with the purchase form duly filled in and signed, and upon payment to the Company of the portion of the Warrant Price, as defined in and determined in accordance with the provisions of Sections 6 and 7 hereof, allocable to the number of Shares with respect to which such portion of the Warrant is then exercised. Payment of the Warrant Price shall be made (i) in cash, by cashier's check or by wire transfer or (ii) through the surrender of debt, preferred equity securities or Common Stock of the Company having a principal amount, liquidation preference, or current market price, as the case may be, equal to the aggregate Warrant Price to be paid (the Company will pay the accrued interest or dividends on such surrendered debt, preferred equity securities, or Common Stock in cash at the time of surrender notwithstanding the stated terms thereof) or (iii) through "cashless" or "net-issue" exercise provided in Section 3(b) below. For purposes of this Section 3, the "Exercisability Date" shall mean the earliest to occur of the following dates: (i) December 27, 1999; (ii) the date when a Change of Control Notice (as defined in Section 7.4) is given; (iii) the date that certain Consulting and Strategic Services Agreement dated December 27, 1996 by and between the Company and EUF Xxxxxx X.X. is terminated (with or without cause); or (iv) the date upon which a registered public offering under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of equity interests in the Company is made pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 or a successor form, but in no event earlier than June 27, 1998 in the event such offering occurs prior to such date.

For purposes of this Section 3(b), the value of the surrender of the right to purchase a share of Common Stock shall be attributed a value equal to (i) the current market price per share of Common Stock minus (ii) the then Warrant Price per share of Common Stock. If the determination of current market price per share of Common Stock is to be made for a "cashless" or "net-issue" exercise in connection with an initial public offering of Common Stock, the current market price per share of Common Stock shall equal the per share offering price without deductions for any compensation, discounts or expenses paid or incurred by the Company in connection with such offering. Otherwise, the current market price shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.1(f) hereof.
(c) Upon such surrender of the Warrant (or certificate therefor) and payment of such Warrant Price as aforesaid, or after "cashless" or "net issue" exercise, the Company shall, within five (5) business days, issue and cause to be delivered to or upon the written order of the Holder, and in such name or names as the Holder may designate, certificate or certificates for the number of full Shares so purchased upon the exercise of the Warrant, together with cash, as provided in Section 8 hereof, with respect to any fractional Shares otherwise issuable upon such surrender and the cash, property and other securities to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.
