(SUBJECT TO ADJUSTMENT)
(Void after December ___, 2008)
PPW -
THIS COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT CERTIFIES that, for value received,
_____________ (the "Holder"), is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the
limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on
or after December ___, 2003 (the "Initial Exercise Date") and on or prior to the
close of business on December ___, 2008 (the "Termination Date") but not
thereafter, to subscribe for and purchase from DynTek, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), up to ____________ [20% OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK
SO PURCHASED] shares (the "Warrant Shares") of Class A Common Stock, $.0001 par
value per share, of the Company (the "Common Stock"). The purchase price of one
share of Common Stock (the "Exercise Price") under this Warrant shall be $1.00,
subject to adjustment hereunder. The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant
Shares for which the Warrant is exercisable shall be subject to adjustment as
provided herein. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall
have the meanings set forth in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated
December 4, 2003, between the Company and the purchasers set forth on Schedule 1
thereto (the "Purchase Agreement").
-2-
1. Title to Warrant. Prior to the Termination Date and subject to
compliance with applicable laws and Section 7 of this Warrant, this Warrant and
all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, at the office or
agency of the Company by the Holder in person or by duly authorized attorney,
upon surrender of this Warrant together with the Assignment Form annexed hereto
properly endorsed. The transferee shall sign an investment letter in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company.
2. Authorization of 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 in respect of the issue thereof (other
than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such
issue).
3. Exercise of Warrant.
(a) Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may
be made at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or
before the Termination Date by the surrender of this Warrant and the Notice of
Exercise Form annexed hereto duly executed, at the office of the Company (or
such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice in
writing to the registered Holder at the address of such Holder appearing on the
books of the Company), and upon payment of the Exercise Price of the Warrant
Shares thereby purchased by wire transfer or cashier's check drawn on a United
States bank or by means of a cashless exercise pursuant to Section 3(d), the
Holder shall be entitled to receive a certificate for the number of Warrant
Shares so purchased. Certificates for Warrant Shares purchased hereunder shall
be delivered to the Holder within five (5) Trading Days after the date on which
this Warrant shall have been exercised as aforesaid. This Warrant shall be
deemed to have been exercised and such certificate or certificates shall be
deemed to have been issued, and the Holder or any other person so designated to
be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such
shares for all purposes, as of the date the Warrant has been properly exercised
by payment to the Company of the Exercise Price and all taxes required to be
paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 5 have been paid. If such
conditions by the Holder have been met, and the Company fails to deliver to the
Holder a certificate or certificates representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to
this Section 3(a) by the close of business on the 5th Trading Day after the date
of such conditions being met by the Holder, then the Holder will have the right
to rescind such exercise. In addition to any other rights available to the
Holder, if the Company fails to deliver to the Holder a certificate or
certificates representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to a proper exercise, and
all conditions being met by the Holder, by the close of business on the 8th
Trading Day after the date of exercise, and if after such 8th Trading Day the
Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or
otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the
Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such
exercise (a "Buy-In"), then the Company shall (1) pay in immediately available
funds to the Holder the amount by which (x) the Holder's total purchase price
(including brokerage commissions, if any) for the Warrant Shares so purchased
exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (A) the number of Warrant Shares
that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the
exercise at issue times (B) the price at which the sell order giving rise to
such purchase obligation was executed, and (2) at the option of the Holder,
either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant
Shares for which such exercise was not honored or deliver to the Holder the
number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company
timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For
example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of
$100 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of Warrant Shares
with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $80,
under clause (1) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be
required to pay the Holder $20. The Holder shall provide the Company written
notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In,
together with applicable confirmations and other evidence reasonably requested
by the Company. Nothing herein shall limit a Xxxxxx's right to pursue any other
remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without
limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with
respect to the Company's failure to timely deliver certificates representing
Warrant Shares as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
-3-
(b) If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company
shall, at the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates representing
Warrant Shares, deliver to Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of Holder
to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new
Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.
(c) The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and
the Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant,
pursuant to Section 3(a) or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to
such issuance after exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder's
Affiliates), as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, would
beneficially own in excess of 5% of the number of shares of the Common Stock
issued and outstanding immediately after giving effect to such issuance. For
purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock
beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates shall include the number of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to
which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude the
number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) exercise of
the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the
Holder or any of its Affiliates and (B) exercise or conversion of the
unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company
(including, without limitation, any other Warrants) subject to a limitation on
conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially
owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates. Except as set forth in the
preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 3(c), beneficial ownership
shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. For
purposes of this Section 3(c), in determining the number of outstanding shares
of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of
Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company's most recent Form 10-Q or Form
10-K, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company
or (z) any other notice by the Company or the Company's transfer agent setting
forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral
request of the Holder, the Company shall within two Trading Days confirm orally
and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then
outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Company Common
Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of
securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its
Affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of
Common Stock was reported. The provisions of this Section 3(c) may be waived by
the Holder upon, at the election of the Holder, not less than 61 days' prior
notice to the Company, and the provisions of this Section 3(c) shall continue to
apply until such 61st day (or such later date, as determined by the Holder, as
may be specified in such notice of waiver). The Holder is solely responsible for
all calculations required in this Section 3(c). The Company shall have no
liability for any issuances of Warrant Shares that exceed the 5% amount and the
Company is entitled to rely on all calculations by the Holder and/or its agents.
The Holder's exercise notice shall be deemed a representation of the Holder that
the number of Warrant Shares to be acquired pursuant to such exercise notice
shall be in compliance with the provisions of this Section 3(c).
-4-
(d) If, but only if, at any time after one year from the date of
issuance of this Warrant there is no effective Registration Statement
registering the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder, this Warrant may
also be exercised at such time by means of a "cashless exercise" in which the
Holder shall be entitled to receive a certificate for the number of Warrant
Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:
(A) = the Closing Price on the Trading Day preceding the date of such
election;
(B) = the Exercise Price of the Warrants, as adjusted; and
(X) = the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the
Warrants in accordance with the terms of this Warrant.
4. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip
representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this
Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which Holder would otherwise be entitled
to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in
respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by
the Exercise Price.
5. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of certificates for Warrant
Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax
or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such certificate, all
of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates
shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be
directed by the Holder; provided, however, that in the event certificates for
Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder,
this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the
Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder; and the Company may
require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it
for any transfer tax incidental thereto.
6. Closing of Books. The Company will not close its stockholder books
or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant,
pursuant to the terms hereof.
-5-
7. Transfer, Division and Combination.
(a) Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws and
the conditions set forth in Section 1 and Section 7(e) hereof and to the
provisions of Section 4.1 of the Purchase Agreement, this Warrant and all rights
hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant
at the principal office of the Company, together with a written assignment of
this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the
Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes
payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required,
such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in
the name of the assignee or assignees and in the denomination or denominations
specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a
new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this
Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. A Warrant, if properly assigned, may be
exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a
new Warrant issued.
(b) This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon
presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company, together with a
written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are
to be issued, signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to
compliance with Section 7(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such
division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or
Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in
accordance with such notice.
(c) The Company shall prepare, issue and deliver at its own expense
(other than transfer taxes) the new Warrant or Warrants under this Section 7.
(d) The Company agrees to maintain, at its aforesaid office, books
for the registration and the registration of transfer of the Warrants.
(e) If, at the time of the surrender of this Warrant in connection
with any transfer of this Warrant, the transfer of this Warrant shall not be
registered pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities
Act and under applicable state securities or blue sky laws, the Company may
require, as a condition of allowing such transfer (i) that the Holder or
transferee of this Warrant, as the case may be, furnish to the Company a written
opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope
customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect that
such transfer may be made without registration under the Securities Act and
under applicable state securities or blue sky laws, (ii) that the holder or
transferee execute and deliver to the Company an investment letter in form and
substance acceptable to the Company and (iii) that the transferee be an
"accredited investor" as defined in Rule 501(a) promulgated under the Securities
Act.
8. No Rights as Shareholder Until Exercise. This Warrant does not
entitle the Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the
Company prior to the exercise hereof. Upon the surrender of this Warrant and the
payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (or by means of a cashless exercise),
the Warrant Shares so purchased shall be and be deemed to be issued to such
Holder as the record owner of such shares as of the close of business on the
later of the date of such surrender or payment.
-6-
9. Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company
covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory
to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock
certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or
destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in
the case of the Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon
surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated,
the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like
tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock
certificate.
10. Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day
for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted
herein shall be a Saturday, Sunday or a legal holiday in the State of New York,
then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next
succeeding day not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday in the State of New York.
11. Adjustments to Exercise Price and Number of Warrant Shares.
For purposes of this Section 11, references to Common Stock shall also
include common stock equivalents (including but not limited to shares of Class B
Common Stock, par value $.0001 of the Company) ("Common Stock Equivalents");
provided, that Common Stock Equivalent shall not include any securities that are
defined in Section 11(b)(ii)(A) as Convertible Securities.
(a) Stock Splits, Etc. The number and kind of securities
purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price shall be
subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of any of the
following. In case the Company shall (i) pay a dividend in shares of Common
Stock or make a distribution in shares of Common Stock to holders of its
outstanding Common Stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock
into a greater number of shares, (iii) combine its outstanding shares of Common
Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, or (iv) issue any shares
of its capital stock in a reclassification of the Common Stock, then the number
of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior
thereto shall be adjusted so that the Holder shall be entitled to receive the
kind and number of Warrant Shares or other securities of the Company which it
would have owned or have been entitled to receive had such Warrant been
exercised in advance thereof. Upon each such adjustment of the kind and number
of Warrant Shares or other securities of the Company which are purchasable
hereunder pursuant to this Section 11(a), the Holder shall thereafter be
entitled to purchase the number of Warrant Shares or other securities resulting
from such adjustment at an Exercise Price per Warrant Share or other security
obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such
adjustment by the number of Warrant Shares purchasable pursuant hereto
immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing by the number of Warrant
Shares or other securities of the Company resulting from such adjustment. An
adjustment made pursuant to this paragraph shall become effective immediately
after the effective date of such event retroactive to the record date, if any,
for such event.
-7-
(b) Anti-Dilution Provisions. From the Initial Exercise Date until
one (1) year following the Closing Date, the Exercise Price and the number of
Warrant Shares issuable hereunder and for which this Warrant is then exercisable
pursuant to Section 1 hereof shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as
provided in this Section 11(b). In the event that any adjustment of the Exercise
Price as required herein results in a fraction of a cent, such Exercise Price
shall be rounded up or down to the nearest cent.
(i) Adjustment of Exercise Price. If and whenever the Company
issues or sells, or in accordance with this Section 11(b) hereof is deemed to
have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock for a consideration per share
less than the then Exercise Price or for no consideration (such lower price, the
"Base Share Price" and such issuances collectively, a "Dilutive Issuance"),
then, the Exercise Price shall be reduced to equal the Base Share Price;
provided, that for purposes hereof, all shares of Common Stock that are issuable
upon conversion, exercise or exchange of Common Stock Equivalents shall be
deemed outstanding immediately after the issuance of such Common Stock
Equivalents. Such adjustment shall be made whenever such shares of Common Stock
or Common Stock Equivalents are issued.
(ii) Effect on Exercise Price of Certain Events. For purposes
of determining the adjusted Exercise Price under Section 11(b) hereof, the
following will be applicable:
(A) Issuance of Rights or Options. If the Company in any
manner issues or grants any warrants, rights or options, whether or not
immediately exercisable, to subscribe for or to purchase Common Stock or other
securities exercisable, convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock
("Convertible Securities") (such warrants, rights and options to purchase Common
Stock or Convertible Securities are hereinafter referred to as "Options") and
the effective price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the
exercise of such Options is less than the Exercise Price ("Below Base Price
Options"), then the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
the exercise of all such Below Base Price Options (assuming full exercise,
conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities, if applicable) will, as of the
date of the issuance or grant of such Below Base Price Options, be deemed to be
outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company for such price per
share and the maximum consideration payable to the Company upon such exercise
(assuming full exercise, conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities, if
applicable) will be deemed to have been received by the Company. For purposes of
the preceding sentence, the "effective price per share for which Common Stock is
issuable upon the exercise of such Below Base Price Options" is determined by
dividing (i) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as
consideration for the issuance or granting of all such Below Base Price Options,
plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable
to the Company upon the exercise of all such Below Base Price Options, plus, in
the case of Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise or conversion of
such Below Base Price Options, the minimum aggregate amount of additional
consideration payable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof at the
time such Convertible Securities first become exercisable, convertible or
exchangeable, by (ii) the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon the exercise of all such Below Base Price Options (assuming full
conversion of Convertible Securities, if applicable). No further adjustment to
the Exercise Price will be made upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock
upon the exercise of such Below Base Price Options or upon the exercise,
conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of such
Below Base Price Options.
-8-
(B) Issuance of Convertible Securities. If the Company in
any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities, whether or not
immediately convertible (other than where the same are issuable upon the
exercise of Options) and the effective price per share for which Common Stock is
issuable upon such exercise, conversion or exchange is less than the Exercise
Price, then the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
exercise, conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities will, as of
the date of the issuance of such Convertible Securities, be deemed to be
outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company for such price per
share and the maximum consideration payable to the Company upon such exercise
(assuming full exercise, conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities, if
applicable) will be deemed to have been received by the Company. For the
purposes of the preceding sentence, the "effective price per share for which
Common Stock is issuable upon such exercise, conversion or exchange" is
determined by dividing (i) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by
the Company as consideration for the issuance or sale of all such Convertible
Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if
any, payable to the Company upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof at
the time such Convertible Securities first become exercisable, convertible or
exchangeable, by (ii) the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of all such Convertible
Securities. No further adjustment to the Exercise Price will be made upon the
actual issuance of such Common Stock upon exercise, conversion or exchange of
such Convertible Securities.
(C) Change in Option Price or Conversion Rate. If there
is a change at any time in (i) the amount of additional consideration payable to
the Company upon the exercise of any Options; (ii) the amount of additional
consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the exercise, conversion or
exchange of any Convertible Securities; or (iii) the rate at which any
Convertible Securities are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock (in
each such case, other than under or by reason of provisions designed to protect
against dilution), the Exercise Price in effect at the time of such change will
be readjusted to the Exercise Price which would have been in effect at such time
had such Options or Convertible Securities still outstanding provided for such
changed additional consideration or changed conversion rate, as the case may be,
at the time initially granted, issued or sold.
(D) Calculation of Consideration Received. If any Common
Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued, granted or sold for cash,
the consideration received therefor for purposes of this Warrant will be the
amount received by the Company therefor, before deduction of reasonable
commissions, underwriting allowances or other reasonable expenses paid or
incurred by the Company in connection with such issuance, grant or sale. In case
any Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for a
consideration part or all of which shall be other than cash, the amount of the
consideration other than cash received by the Company will be the fair market
value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of
securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the Company
will be the fair market value (closing bid price, if traded on any market)
thereof as of the date of receipt. In case any Common Stock, Options or
Convertible Securities are issued in connection with any merger or consolidation
in which the Company is the surviving corporation, the amount of consideration
therefor will be deemed to be the fair market value of such portion of the net
assets and business of the non-surviving corporation as is attributable to such
Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, as the case may be. The fair
market value of any consideration other than cash or securities will be
determined in good faith by an investment banker or other appropriate expert of
national reputation selected by the Company and reasonably acceptable to the
holder hereof, with the costs of such appraisal to be borne by the Company.
-9-
(E) Exceptions to Adjustment of Exercise Price.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Section 11(b) shall not
apply to the following (1) the granting of options to employees, officers,
directors or consultants of the Company pursuant to any stock option plan or
other written compensatory agreement duly adopted by a majority of the
non-employee members of the Board of Directors of the Company or a majority of
the members of a committee of non-employee directors established for such
purpose, or (2) the exercise of any security issued by the Company in connection
with the offer and sale of the Company's securities pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement (including any securities issued as compensation in connection
therewith), or (3) the exercise of or conversion of any convertible securities,
options or warrants issued and outstanding on the date hereof, provided such
securities have not been amended since the date hereof, or (4) the issuance of
securities in connection with acquisitions, joint ventures, arrangements related
to the Company's operations and strategic relationships, or other strategic
investments, the primary purpose of which is not to raise capital.
(iii) Minimum Adjustment of Exercise Price. No adjustment
of the Exercise Price shall be made in an amount of less than 1% of the Exercise
Price in effect at the time such adjustment is otherwise required to be made,
but any such lesser adjustment shall be carried forward and shall be made at the
time and together with the next subsequent adjustment which, together with any
adjustments so carried forward, shall amount to not less than 1% of such
Exercise Price.
12. Reorganization, Reclassification, Merger, Consolidation or
Disposition of Assets. In case the Company shall reorganize its capital,
reclassify its capital stock, consolidate or merge with or into another
corporation (where the Company is not the surviving corporation or where there
is a change in or distribution with respect to any class of common stock of the
Company), or sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all its
property, assets or business to another corporation and, pursuant to the terms
of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition
of assets, shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation, or
any cash, shares of stock or other securities or property of any nature
whatsoever (including warrants or other subscription or purchase rights) in
addition to or in lieu of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation
("Other Property"), are to be received by or distributed to the holders of
Common Stock of the Company, then the Holder shall have the right thereafter to
receive, upon exercise of this Warrant, the number of shares of Common Stock of
the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving
corporation, and Other Property receivable upon or as a result of such
reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets
by a Holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable immediately prior to such event. In case of any such reorganization,
reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, the successor
or acquiring corporation (if other than the Company) shall expressly assume the
due and punctual observance and performance of each and every covenant and
condition of this Warrant to be performed and observed by the Company and all
the obligations and liabilities hereunder, subject to such modifications as may
be deemed appropriate (as determined in good faith by resolution of the Board of
Directors of the Company) in order to provide for adjustments of Warrant Shares
for which this Warrant is exercisable which shall be as nearly equivalent as
practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 12. For purposes of
this Section 12, "common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation" shall
include stock of such corporation of any class which is not preferred as to
dividends or assets over any other class of stock of such corporation and which
is not subject to redemption and shall also include any evidences of
indebtedness, shares of stock or other securities which are convertible into or
exchangeable for any such stock, either immediately or upon the arrival of a
specified date or the happening of a specified event and any warrants or other
rights to subscribe for or purchase any such stock. The foregoing provisions of
this Section 12 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations,
reclassifications, mergers, consolidations or disposition of assets.
-10-
13. Voluntary Adjustment by the Company. The Company may at any time
during the term of this Warrant reduce the then current Exercise Price to any
amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors
of the Company.
14. Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares or
number or kind of securities or other property purchasable upon the exercise of
this Warrant or the Exercise Price is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company
shall give notice thereof to the Holder, which notice shall state the number of
Warrant Shares (and other securities or property) purchasable upon the exercise
of this Warrant and the Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares (and other
securities or property) after such adjustment, setting forth a brief statement
of the facts requiring such adjustment and setting forth the computation by
which such adjustment was made.
15. Notice of Corporate Action. If at any time:
(a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common
Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or other
distribution, or any right to subscribe for or purchase any evidences of its
indebtedness, any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or
property, or to receive any other right, or
(b) there shall be any capital reorganization of the Company, any
reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company or any
consolidation or merger of the Company with, or any sale, transfer or other
disposition of all or substantially all the property, assets or business of the
Company to, another corporation or,
(c) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution,
liquidation or winding up of the Company;
-11-
then, in any one or more of such cases, the Company shall give to Holder (i) at
least 10 days' prior written notice of the date on which a record date shall be
selected for such dividend, distribution or right or for determining rights to
vote in respect of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger,
consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, liquidation or winding up, and (ii)
in the case of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation,
sale, transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, at least 10
days' prior written notice of the date when the same shall take place. Such
notice in accordance with the foregoing clause also shall specify (i) the date
on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend,
distribution or right, the date on which the holders of Common Stock shall be
entitled to any such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and
character thereof, and (ii) the date on which any such reorganization,
reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition,
dissolution, liquidation or winding up is to take place and the time, if any
such time is to be fixed, as of which the holders of Common Stock shall be
entitled to exchange their Warrant Shares for securities or other property
deliverable upon such disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up. Each
such written notice shall be sufficiently given if addressed to Holder at the
last address of Xxxxxx appearing on the books of the Company and delivered in
accordance with Section 17(d).
16. Authorized Shares. The Company covenants that during the period the
Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common
Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant
Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company
further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full
authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock
certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for the Warrant
Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company
will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such
Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any
applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the principal Trading
Market upon which the Common Stock may be listed.
(a) Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the
Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation,
amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization,
transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of
securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance
or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in
good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all
such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder
as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, the Company will (a) not increase the par value of any Warrant
Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to
such increase in par value, (b) take all such action as may be necessary or
appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid
and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (c) use
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or
consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be
necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.
-12-
(b) Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in
the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the
Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions
thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory
body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.
17. Miscellaneous.
(a) Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed
in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York without regard to
the conflicts of laws principles thereof. The parties hereto hereby irrevocably
agree that any suit or proceeding arising directly and/or indirectly pursuant to
or under this Agreement, shall be brought solely in a federal or state court
located in the City, County and State of New York. By its execution hereof, the
parties hereby covenant and irrevocably submit to the in personam jurisdiction
of the federal and state courts located in the City, County and State of New
York and agree that any process in any such action may be served upon any of
them personally, or by certified mail or registered mail upon them or their
agent, return receipt requested, with the same full force and effect as if
personally served upon them in New York City. The parties hereto waive any claim
that any such jurisdiction is not a convenient forum for any such suit or
proceeding and any defense or lack of in personam jurisdiction with respect
thereto. In the event of any such action or proceeding, the party prevailing
therein shall be entitled to payment from the other party hereto of its
reasonable counsel fees and disbursements in an amount judicially determined.
(b) Restrictions. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares
acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered for resale under
the Securities Act, will have legends imprinted upon any stock certificates
evidencing such Warrant Shares and the Company will notify its transfer agent of
restrictions upon resale imposed by the applicable state and federal securities
laws.
(c) Nonwaiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or
failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a
waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice Xxxxxx's rights, powers or remedies,
notwithstanding all rights hereunder terminate on the Termination Date. If the
Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this
Warrant, which results in any material damages to the Holder, the Company shall
pay to Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and
expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees, including
those of appellate proceedings, incurred by Holder in collecting any amounts due
pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies
hereunder.
(d) Notices. Any notice, request or other document required or
permitted to be given or delivered to the Holder by the Company shall be
delivered in accordance with the notice provisions of the Purchase Agreement;
provided, upon any permitted assignment of this Warrant, the assignee shall
promptly provide the Company with its contact information.
(e) Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of
any affirmative action by Holder to exercise this Warrant or purchase Warrant
Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of Holder, shall
give rise to any liability of Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock
or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the
Company or by creditors of the Company.
-13-
(f) Remedies. Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all
rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to
specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that
monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by
reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to
waive the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law
would be adequate.
(g) Successors and Assigns. Subject to applicable securities laws,
this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the
benefit of and be binding upon the successors of the Company and the successors
and permitted assigns of Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are intended to
be for the benefit of all Holders from time to time of this Warrant and shall be
enforceable by any such Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.
(h) Amendment. This Warrant may be modified or amended or the
provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company and the Holder.
(i) Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant
shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under
applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or
invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent
of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such
provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.
(j) Headings. The headings used in this Warrant are for the
convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part
of this Warrant.
18. Redemption of Warrants.
(a) Commencing on the date following the final closing of the
private placement in which this Warrant was sold, on not less than ten (10)
days' written notice (the "Redemption Notice"), to the holder of this Warrant,
this Warrant may be redeemed, at the option of the Company, in whole and not in
part, at a redemption price of $2.25 (the "Redemption Price"), provided (i) the
"Market Price" of a share of Common Stock shall equal at least the Redemption
Price for the twenty (20) consecutive Trading Days ending on the Trading Day
immediately prior to the date of the Redemption Notice (the "Target Price"),
subject to adjustments as set forth in Section 11 hereof, (ii) the Company then
has sufficient authorized capital to permit issuance of the full number of
Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrant, (iii) the Warrant Shares are listed
or included for trading on a Trading Market and (iv) a registration statement
covering the Warrant Shares filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "Securities Act") has been declared effective by the Securities and
Exchange Commission and remains effective on the date fixed for redemption of
this Warrant (the "Redemption Date"). For purposes of this Warrant, Market Price
is defined as the closing bid price per share of Common Stock on the principal
Trading Market on which the Common Stock is included for trading; provided, that
if there is no trading in the Common Stock on a particular Trading Day on the
relevant principal Trading Market, the Market Price for that day shall be the
Market Price on the last preceding Trading Day on which there was trading in the
Common Stock on the principal Trading Market.
-14-
(b) If the conditions set forth in Section 18 are met, and the
Company desires to exercise its right to redeem this Warrant, it shall mail a
Redemption Notice to the registered holder of this Warrant by first class mail,
postage prepaid, not later than the fifth (5th) day before the date fixed for
redemption, as provided in Section 18(a) hereof.
(c) The Redemption Notice shall specify (i) the Redemption Price,
(ii) the Redemption Date, (iii) the place where the Warrant certificates shall
be delivered and the redemption price paid, and (iv) that the right to exercise
this Warrant shall terminate at 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the business day
immediately preceding the Redemption Date. No failure to mail such notice nor
any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall affect the validity of the
proceedings for such redemption except as to a holder (a) to whom notice was not
mailed, or (b) whose notice was defective. An affidavit of the Secretary or an
Assistant Secretary of the Company that the Redemption Notice has been mailed
shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated
therein.
(d) Any right to exercise a Warrant shall terminate at 5:00 p.m.
(New York time) on the business day immediately preceding the Redemption Date.
On and after the Redemption Date, the holder of this Warrant shall have no
further rights except to receive, upon surrender of this Warrant, the Redemption
Price.
(e) From and after the Redemption Date, the Company shall, at the
place specified in the Redemption Notice, upon presentation and surrender to the
Company by or on behalf of the holder thereof the warrant certificates
evidencing this Warrant being redeemed, deliver, or cause to be delivered to or
upon the written order of such holder, a sum in cash equal to the Redemption
Price of this Warrant. From and after the Redemption Date, this Warrant shall
expire and become void and all rights hereunder and under the warrant
certificates, except the right to receive payment of the Redemption Price, shall
cease.
(f) If the shares of Common Stock are subdivided or combined into a
greater or smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the Target Price shall be
proportionately adjusted by the ratio which the total number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event bears to the total number of
shares of Common Stock to be outstanding immediately after such event.
