Right to Convert Warrant Into Stock Net Issuance (i) In addition to and without limiting the rights of the holder under the terms of this Warrant, the holder may elect to convert this Warrant or any portion thereof (the "Conversion Right") into shares of Common Stock, the aggregate value of which shares shall be equal to the value of this Warrant or the portion thereof being converted. The Conversion Right may be exercised by the holder by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with notice of the holder's intention to exercise the Conversion Right, in which event the Company shall issue to the holder a number of shares of the Company's Common Stock computed using the following formula: X= Y(A-B) ------ A Where: X The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the holder. Y The number of shares of Common Stock representing the portion of this Warrant that is being converted. A The fair market value of one share of the Company's Common Stock. B The Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculations).
(ii) For purposes of this Section 2(b), the "fair market value" per share of the Company's Common Stock shall mean, the average daily Market Price (as defined below) during the period of the most recent 20 days, ending on the last business day before the effective date of exercise of the Conversion Right, on which the national securities exchanges were open for trading, except that if no class of the Common Stock is then listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange or quoted in the over-counter market, the fair market value shall be the Market Price on the last business day before the effective date of exercise of the Conversion Right. If the Common Stock is traded on a national securities exchange or admitted to unlisted trading privileges on such an exchange, or is listed on the National Market System (the "National Market System") of the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations System (the "NASDAQ"), the Market Price as of a specified day shall be the last reported sale price of the Common Stock on such exchange or on the National Market System on such date or if no such sale is made on such day, the mean of the closing bid and asked prices for such day on such exchange or on the National Market System. If the Common Stock is not so listed or admitted to unlisted trading privileges, the Market Price as of a specified day shall be the mean of the last bid and asked prices reported on such date (x) by the NASDAQ or (y) if reports are unavailable under clause (x) above by the National Quotation Bureau Incorporated. If the Common Stock is not so listed or admitted to unlisted trading privileges and bid and ask prices are not reported, the Market Price as of a specified day shall be determined in good faith by written resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company.
The Warrant Certificates for the Warrants shall be issued in registered form only. The text of the Warrant Certificate, including the form of assignment and subscription printed on the reverse side thereof, shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A annexed hereto, which text is hereby incorporated in this Agreement by reference as though fully set forth herein and to whose terms and conditions the Company and the Warrant Agent hereby agree. Each Warrant Certificate shall evidence the right, subject to the provisions of this Agreement and of such Warrant Certificate, to purchase the number of validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, as that term is defined in Section 1.05 of this Agreement, stated therein, free of preemptive rights, subject to adjustment as provided in Article III of this Agreement.
Exercise of Warrant Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination Date by delivery to the Company of a duly executed facsimile copy or PDF copy submitted by e-mail (or e-mail attachment) of the Notice of Exercise in the form annexed hereto (the “Notice of Exercise”). Within the earlier of (i) two (2) Trading Days and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period (as defined in Section 2(d)(i) herein) following the date of exercise as aforesaid, the Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for the shares specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank unless the cashless exercise procedure specified in Section 2(c) below is specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise. No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise be required. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation within three (3) Trading Days of the date on which the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise within one (1) Business Day of receipt of such notice. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
This Warrant Upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, a certificate or certificates for the Exercise Shares so purchased, registered in the name of the Holder or persons affiliated with the Holder, if the Holder so designates, shall be issued and delivered to the Holder within a reasonable time after the rights represented by this Warrant shall have been so exercised. The person in whose name any certificate or certificates for Exercise Shares are to be issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of such shares on the date on which this Warrant was surrendered and payment of the Exercise Price was made, irrespective of the date of delivery of such certificate or certificates, except that, if the date of such surrender and payment is a date when the stock transfer books of the Company are closed, such person shall be deemed to have become the holder of such shares at the close of business on the next succeeding date on which the stock transfer books are open.
Duration and Exercise of Warrant (a) Subject to Section 1.2, this Warrant may be exercised to purchase (i) 50% of the underlying shares from and after 9:00 A.M. New York City time on January 24, 2002 (the "First Exercise Date") and (ii) 50% of the underlying shares on January 24, 2003 (the "Second Exercise Date"). Each of the First Exercise Date and the Second Exercise Date are hereinafter referred to from time to time, as applicable, as the "Exercise Date" and collectively from time to time as the "Exercise Dates"). The Company shall give prompt notice to the Warrantholder of the Exercise Date in accordance with Section 7.6. This Warrant expires at 5:00 P.M., New York City time on January 24, 2011 (the "Expiration Date").
(b) The rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised by the Warrantholder of record, in whole, or from time to time in part, by (a) surrender of this Warrant, accompanied by either the Exercise Form annexed hereto, or if the Warrantholder decides to exercise the Warrant pursuant to the broker-assisted cashless exercise program instituted by the Company, an applicable exercise form provided by the Company (the "Exercise Form") duly executed by the Warrantholder of record and specifying the number of Warrant Shares to be purchased, to the Company at the office of the Company located at 0000 XxXxxxxx Xxxxxx, Suite 1000, Dallas, Texas 75204 (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 or on which the Company is otherwise closed for business (a "Nonbusiness Day") on or after 9:00 A.M. New York City time on the applicable Exercise Date but not later than 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Expiration Date (or 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on the next succeeding Business Day, if the Expiration Date is a Nonbusiness Day), (b) delivery of payment to the Company in cash or by certified or official bank check in New York Clearing House Funds, of the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares specified in the Exercise Form (such payment may be made by the Warrantholder directly or by a designated broker pursuant to the broker-assisted cashless exercise program instituted by the Company) 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 (or designated broker, as the case may be) as promptly as practicable, and in any event within 10 business days, thereafter. The stock certificates so delivered shall be in denominations of at least 1,000 shares each or such other denomination as may be specified by the Warrantholder and agreed upon by the Company, and shall be issued in the name of the Warrantholder or 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 (or designated broker, as the case may be) 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.
(c) With the consent of the Compensation Committee, and subject at all times to, and only to the extent, if any, permitted under and in accordance with, laws and regulations and other binding obligations or provisions applicable to the Company, the Company may make a loan to the Warrantholder with respect to the exercise of the Warrant, including the payment by the Warrantholder of any or all federal, state and local income or other taxes due in connection with any exercise. The interest on such loan shall be the Company's cost of money plus an additional 0.5% at the time the loan is made and such loan shall be made with recourse against the Warrantholder. The Compensation Committee shall have the full authority to determine any other terms and provisions of such a loan.
Warrant On or before the Closing Date, the Company shall issue the Warrant to the Buyer pursuant to the terms of contained therein.
Lost Warrants The Company represents and warrants to the Holder hereof that upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction, or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of an indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Company, or in the case of any such mutilation upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant, the Company, at its expense, will make and deliver a new Warrant, of like tenor, in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant.
Warrant Price Duration and Exercise of Warrants Section 2.1.
Warrant Shares If all or any portion of a Warrant is exercised at a time when there is an effective registration statement to cover the issuance or resale of the Warrant Shares or if the Warrant is exercised via cashless exercise, the Warrant Shares issued pursuant to any such exercise shall be issued free of all legends. If at any time following the date hereof the Registration Statement (or any subsequent registration statement registering the sale or resale of the Warrant Shares) is not effective or is not otherwise available for the sale or resale of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall immediately notify the holders of the Warrants in writing that such registration statement is not then effective and thereafter shall promptly notify such holders when the registration statement is effective again and available for the sale or resale of the Warrant Shares (it being understood and agreed that the foregoing shall not limit the ability of the Company to issue, or any Purchaser to sell, any of the Warrant Shares in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws). The Company shall use best efforts to keep a registration statement (including the Registration Statement) registering the issuance or resale of the Warrant Shares effective during the term of the Warrants.
Method of Exercise of Warrants (1) The registered holder of any Warrant may exercise the rights thereby conferred on him to acquire all or any part of the Warrant Shares to which such Warrant entitles the holder, by surrendering the Warrant Certificate representing such Warrants to the Warrant Agent at any time prior to the Time of Expiry at its principal office in the City of Vancouver, British Columbia (or at such additional place or places as may be decided by the Company from time to time with the approval of the Warrant Agent), with a duly completed and executed exercise form (the “Exercise Form”) of the registered holder or his executors, administrators or other legal representative or his attorney duly appointed by an instrument in writing in the form and manner satisfactory to the Warrant Agent, substantially in the form endorsed on the Warrant Certificate as Schedule “B”, specifying the number of Warrant Shares subscribed for together with a certified cheque, bank draft or money order in lawful money of Canada, payable to or to the order of the Company in an amount equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares subscribed for. A Warrant Certificate with the duly completed and executed Exercise Form and payment of the Exercise Price shall be deemed to be surrendered only upon personal delivery thereof to or, if sent by mail or other means of transmission, upon actual receipt thereof by the Warrant Agent.
(2) The Exercise Form shall be signed by the Warrantholder, or his executors, or administrators or other legal representative or his attorney duly appointed by an instrument in writing in the form and manner satisfactory to the Warrant Agent, shall specify the person(s) in whose name such Warrant Shares are to be issued, the address(es) of such person(s) and the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to each person, if more than one is so specified. If any of the Warrant Shares subscribed for are to be issued to (a) person(s) other than the Warrantholder, the signatures set out in the Exercise Form shall be guaranteed by a Canadian Schedule I chartered bank or a medallion signature guarantee from a member of a recognized Signature Medallion Guarantee Program and (b) the Warrantholder shall pay to the Company or the Warrant Agent all applicable transfer or similar taxes and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver certificates evidencing Warrant Shares unless or until such Warrantholder shall have paid to the Company or the Warrant Agent on behalf of the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid or that no tax is due.
(3) If, at the time of exercise of the Warrants, in accordance with the provisions of subsections 4.1(1) or 4.1(4), there are any trading restrictions on the Warrant Shares pursuant to Securities Laws or stock exchange requirements, the Company shall, on the advice of counsel, endorse any certificates or book-entry positions representing the Warrant Shares to such effect. The Warrant Agent is entitled to assume compliance with all Securities Laws unless otherwise notified in writing by the Company.
(4) A Beneficial Owner of Uncertificated Warrant evidenced by a security entitlement in respect of Warrants in the Book-Based System who desires to exercise his Uncertificated Warrants, must do so by causing a CDS Participant to deliver to CDS (at its office in the City of Toronto), on behalf of the Beneficial Owner at any time prior to the Time of Expiry, a written notice of the Beneficial Owner’s intention to exercise Warrants (the “Exercise Notice”) in a manner acceptable to CDS. Forthwith upon receipt by CDS of such notice, as well as payment for the aggregate Exercise Price, CDS shall deliver to the Warrant Agent confirmation of its intention to exercise Warrants (the “Confirmation”) in a manner acceptable to the Warrant Agent, including by electronic means through the Book-Based System. The Beneficial Owner will initiate the electronic exercise through the Book-Based System, by way of the Confirmation and forward the aggregate Exercise Price electronically to the Warrant Agent and the Warrant Agent will execute the exercise by issuing to CDS through the Book-Based System the Warrant Shares to which the exercising Beneficial Owner is entitled pursuant to the exercise. Any expense associated with the preparation and delivery of Exercise Notices will be for the account of the Beneficial Owner exercising the Warrants and the Warrant Agent will execute the exercise by issuing to CDS through the Book-Based System the Warrant Shares to which the exercising Warrantholder is entitled pursuant to the exercise. Any expense associated with the exercise process will be for the account of the entitlement holder exercising the Warrants and/or the CDS Participant exercising the Warrants on its behalf. By causing a CDS Participant to deliver notice to CDS, a Beneficial Owner shall be deemed to have irrevocably surrendered his Warrants so exercised and appointed such CDS Participant to act as his or her exclusive settlement agent with respect to the exercise and the receipt of Warrant Shares in connection with the obligations arising from such exercise. Any notice which CDS determines to be incomplete, not in proper form or not duly executed shall for all purposes be void and of no effect and the exercise to which it relates shall be considered for all purposes not to have been exercised thereby. A failure by a CDS Participant to exercise or to give effect to the settlement thereof in accordance with the Beneficial Owner’s instructions will not give rise to any obligations or liability on the part of the Company or Warrant Agent to the CDS Participant or the Beneficial Owner. If the Exercise Form set forth in the Warrant Certificate shall have been amended, the Company shall cause the amended Exercise Form to be forwarded to all registered Warrantholders. Exercise Forms and Confirmations must be delivered to the Warrant Agent at any time during the Warrant Agent’s actual business hours on any Business Day prior to the Expiry Time. Any Exercise Form or Confirmations received by the Warrant Agent after business hours on any Business Day other than the Expiry Date will be deemed to have been received by the Warrant Agent on the next following Business Day. Any Warrant with respect to which a Confirmation or Exercise Form is not received by the Warrant Agent before the Expiry Time shall be deemed to have expired and become void and all rights with respect to such Warrants shall terminate and be cancelled.
