DEFINITIONS AND OTHER PROVISIONS OF GENERAL APPLICATION
Adjustments for Corporate Transactions and Other Events 8.1 Stock Dividend, Stock Split, and Reverse Stock Split. Upon a stock dividend of, or stock split or reverse stock split affecting, the Common Stock, the number of Award Shares and the number of such Award Shares that are nonvested and forfeitable shall, without further action of the Board of Directors of the Company, be adjusted to reflect such event. The Company shall make appropriate adjustments, in its discretion, to address the treatment of fractional shares with respect to the Award Shares as a result of the stock dividend, stock split, or reverse stock split; provided, however, that such adjustments do not result in the issuance of fractional Award Shares. Adjustments under this Section 8.1 will be made by the Company, whose determination as to what adjustments, if any, will be made and the extent thereof will be final, binding, and conclusive.
Subdivisions, Combinations and Other Issuances If the Company shall at any time prior to the expiration of this Warrant subdivide the Shares, by split-up or otherwise, or combine its Shares, or issue additional shares of its Shares as a dividend, the number of Shares issuable on the exercise of this Warrant shall forthwith be proportionately increased in the case of a subdivision or stock dividend, or proportionately decreased in the case of a combination. Appropriate adjustments shall also be made to the purchase price payable per share, but the aggregate purchase price payable for the total number of Shares purchasable under this Warrant (as adjusted) shall remain the same. Any adjustment under this Section 7(a) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective, or as of the record date of such dividend, or in the event that no record date is fixed, upon the making of such dividend.
Protection Against Dilution and Other Adjustments 6.1 The Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 6; provided, that there shall be no adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 6. Upon each such adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 6, the Holder shall thereafter prior to the Expiration Date be entitled to purchase, at the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment, the number of Warrant Shares obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment.
6.2 If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) shall pay a stock dividend (except scheduled dividends paid on outstanding preferred stock as of the date hereof which contain a stated dividend rate) or otherwise make a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or on any other class of capital stock and not the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivide outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, or (iii) combine outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision or combination, and shall apply to successive subdivisions and combinations.
6.3 In case of any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another person, the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property, then the Holder shall have the right thereafter to exercise this Warrant only into the shares of stock and other securities and property receivable upon or deemed to be held by holders of Common Stock following such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange, and the Holder shall be entitled upon such event to receive such amount of securities or property equal to the amount of Warrant Shares such Holder would have been entitled to had such Holder exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange. The terms of any such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange shall include such terms so as to continue to give to the Holder the right to receive the securities or property set forth in this Section 6.3 upon any exercise following any such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange.
6.4 If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, shall distribute to all holders of Common Stock (and not to holders of this Warrant) evidences of its indebtedness or assets or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security (excluding those referred to in Sections 6.2, 6.3 and 6.5), then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the Exercise Price determined as of the record date mentioned above, and of which the numerator shall be such Exercise Price on such record date less the then fair market value at such record date of the portion of such assets or evidence of indebtedness so distributed applicable to one outstanding share of Common Stock as determined by the Company's independent certified public accountants that regularly examines the financial statements of the Company (an "Appraiser").
6.5 If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued rights or warrants to acquire or otherwise sell or distribute shares of Common Stock for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price then in effect, except for (i) the granting of options or warrants to employees, officers, directors and the issuance of shares upon exercise of options granted, under any stock option plan heretofore or hereinafter duly adopted by the Company; (ii) shares issued upon exercise of any currently outstanding warrants or options and upon conversion of any currently outstanding convertible debenture or (iii) shares issued pursuant to the Investment Agreement then, forthwith upon such issue or sale, the Exercise Price shall be reduced to the price (calculated to the nearest cent) determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior thereto by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration received (or to be received, assuming exercise or conversion in full of such rights, warrants and convertible securities) for the issuance of such additional shares of Common Stock would purchase at the Exercise Price, and the denominator of which shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the issuance of such additional shares. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such an issuance is made.
6.6 For the purposes of this Section 6, the following clauses shall also be applicable:
Capitalization and Other Capital Stock Matters The authorized, issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company is as set forth in the Prospectus under the caption "Capitalization" (other than for subsequent issuances, if any, pursuant to employee benefit plans described in the Prospectus or upon exercise of outstanding options or warrants described in the Prospectus).
