THE IXATA GROUP, INC.
Series C Preferred Stock Purchase Warrant
(Void after December 5, 2005)
The IXATA Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), for
value received, hereby certifies that _______________ or its registered assigns
(the "Registered Holder"), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to
purchase from the Company, at any time or from time to time on or after the date
of issuance and on or before December 5, 2005, at not later than 5:00 P.M.
(Eastern Time) _____________ (______) shares of Series C Convertible Preferred
Stock of the Company ("Series C Preferred"), at a purchase price per share (the
"Purchase Price") of $1.00. The shares purchasable upon exercise of this
Warrant, and the purchase price per share, each as adjusted from time to time
pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant, are hereinafter referred to as the
"Warrant Shares" and the "Purchase Price," respectively. This Warrant is issued
pursuant to a Series C Convertible Preferred Stock and Series C Convertible
Preferred Stock Warrant Purchase Agreement of even date herewith among the
Company and the Purchasers named therein (the "Agreement"), and the terms of
this Warrant are subject to the terms of the Agreement.
1. Exercise.
(a) Except as set forth in subsection 1(b) below, this Warrant may be
exercised by the Registered Holder in whole or in part, by surrendering this
Warrant, with the purchase form appended hereto as Exhibit I duly executed by
such Registered Holder or by such Registered Holder's duly authorized attorney,
at the principal office of the Company, or at such other office or agency as the
Company may designate, accompanied by payment in full, in lawful money of the
United States, of the Purchase Price payable in respect of the number of Warrant
Shares purchased upon such exercise.
(b) The Registered Holder may, at its option, elect to pay some or all of
the Purchase Price payable upon an exercise of this Warrant by canceling a
portion of this Warrant exercisable for such number of shares of the Company's
common stock, $0.001 par value (the `Common Stock"), as is then issuable upon
conversion of the Series C Preferred (as to which this Warrant is exercisable)
determined by dividing (i) the total Purchase Price payable in respect of the
number of shares of Series C Preferred being purchased upon such exercise by
(ii) the excess of the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock as of the
effective date of exercise, as determined pursuant to Section 1(c) below (the
"Exercise Date") over the Purchase Price per share. If the Registered Holder
wishes to exercise this Warrant pursuant to this
CUSIP No. 81371G 10 S 13D PAGE 52 of 62
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
method of payment with respect to the maximum number of shares of Common Stock
so purchasable pursuant to this method, then the number of shares of Common
Stock so purchasable shall be equal to the total number of shares of Common
Stock, minus the product obtained by multiplying (x) the total number of shares
of Common Stock purchasable by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be
the Purchase Price per share and the denominator of which shall be the Fair
Market Value per share of Common Stock as of the Exercise Date. The Fair Market
Value per share of Common Stock shall be determined as follows:
(i) If the Common Stock is listed on a national securities exchange,
the Nasdaq National Market or another nationally recognized exchange or trading
system as of the Exercise Date, the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock
shall be deemed to be the average last reported sale prices per share of Common
Stock thereon over the thirty-day period the Exercise Date; or, if no such price
is reported on such date, such price on the next preceding business day.
(ii) If the Common Stock is not listed on a national securities
exchange, the Nasdaq National Market or another nationally recognized exchange
or trading system as of the Exercise Date, the Fair Market Value per share of
Common Stock shall be deemed to be the amount most recently determined by the
Board of Directors to represent the fair market value per share of the Common
Stock (including without limitation a determination for purposes of granting
Common Stock options or issuing Common Stock under an employee benefit plan of
the Company); and, upon request of the Registered Holder, the Board of Directors
(or a representative thereof) shall promptly notify the Registered Holder of the
Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
the Board of Directors has not made such a determination within the three-month
period prior to the Exercise Date, then (A) the Fair Market Value per share of
Common Stock shall be the amount next determined by the Board of Directors to
represent the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock (including without
limitation a determination for purposes of granting Common Stock options or
issuing Common Stock under an employee benefit plan of the Company), (B) the
Board of Directors shall make a determination within 15 days of a request by the
Registered Holder that it do so, and (C) the exercise of this Warrant pursuant
to this subsection 1(b) shall be delayed until such determination is made.
References in this Warrant to "Warrant Shares" shall include shares of Common
Stock purchasable under this subsection (b).
(c) Each exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been effected
immediately prior to the close of business on the day on which this Warrant
shall have been surrendered to the Company as provided in subsection 1(a) above.
At such time, the person or persons in whose name or names any certificates for
Warrant Shares shall be issuable upon such exercise as provided in subsection
1(d) below shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the
Warrant Shares represented by such certificates.
(d) As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in whole or
in part the Company, at its expense, will cause to be issued in the name of, and
delivered to, the Registered Holder, or as such Registered Holder (upon payment
by such Registered Holder of any applicable transfer taxes and subject to
compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws) may direct:
(i) a certificate or certificates for the number of full Warrant Shares
to which such Registered Holder shall be entitled upon such exercise plus, in
lieu of any fractional share to which such Registered Holder would otherwise be
entitled, cash in an amount determined pursuant to Section 3 hereof; and
(ii) in case such exercise is in part only, a new warrant or warrants
(dated the date hereof) of like tenor, calling in the aggregate on the face or
faces thereof for the number of Warrant Shares equal (without giving effect to
any adjustment therein) to the number of such shares called for on the face of
this Warrant minus the number of such shares purchased by the Registered Holder
upon such exercise as provided in subsection 1(a) above.
CUSIP No. 81371G 10 S 13D PAGE 53 of 62
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Adjustments.
(a) Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall be equal to the Conversion
Price (as adjusted), as defined in the Certificate of Designates of the Series C
Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company.
(b) Mergers, etc. If there shall occur any capital reorganization or
reclassification of the Company's Series C Preferred or Common Stock (other than
a change in par value or a subdivision or combination that results in an
adjustment to the Purchase as provided for in subsection 2(a) above), including
without limitation any mandatory conversion of the Series C Preferred, or any
consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation, or a
transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, then, as part
of any such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale, as
the case may be, lawful provision shall be made so that the Registered Holder of
this Warrant shall have the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise hereof
the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property which
such Registered Holder would have been entitled to receive if, immediately prior
to any such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale, as
the case may be, such Registered Holder had held the number of the Company's
Series C Preferred or Common Stock which were then purchasable upon the exercise
of this Warrant. In any such case, appropriate adjustment (as reasonably
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company) shall be made
in the application of the provisions set forth herein with respect to the rights
and interests thereafter of the Registered Holder of this Warrant, such that the
provisions set forth in this Section 2 (including provisions with respect to
adjustment of the Purchase Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as
is reasonably practicable, in relation to any shares of stock or other
securities or property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant.
(c) Adjustment in Number of Warrant Shares. When any adjustment is
required to be made in the Purchase Price, the number of Warrant Shares
purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be changed to the number
determined by dividing (i) an amount equal to the number of shares issuable upon
the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by
the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment, by (ii) the
Purchase Price in effect immediately after such adjustment.
(d) Certificate of Adjustment. When any adjustment is required to be
made pursuant to this Section 2, the Company shall promptly mail to the
Registered Holder a certificate setting forth the Purchase Price after such
adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such
adjustment. Such certificate shall also set forth the kind and amount of stock
or other securities or property into which this Warrant shall be exercisable
following such adjustment.
3. Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required upon the
exercise of this Warrant to issue any fractional shares, but shall make an
adjustment therefor in cash on the basis of the Fair Market Value per share of
Common Stock, as determined pursuant to subsection 1(b) above.
4. Requirements for Transfer.
(a) This Warrant, the Warrant Shares and any shares of Common Stock
issued upon conversion of the Warrant Shares or of this Warrant (collectively,
the "Securities") shall not be sold or transferred unless either (i) they first
shall have been registered under the Act, or (ii) the Company first shall have
been furnished with an opinion of legal counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the
Company, to the effect that such sale or transfer is exempt from the
registration requirements of the Act.
(b) Each certificate representing Warrant Shares shall bear a legend
substantially in the following form:
"The securities represented by this certificate have
not been registered
CUSIP No. 81371G 10 S 13D PAGE 54 of 62
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may
not be offered, sold or otherwise transferred,
pledged or hypothecated unless and until such
securities are registered under such Act or an
opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company is
obtained to the effect that such registration is not
required."
The foregoing legend shall be removed from the certificates representing any
Warrant Shares, at the request of the holder thereof, at such time as they
become eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the Act, upon
compliance with all requirements of the transfer agent for such shares.
5. No Impairment. The Company will not, by amendment of its charter or
through reorganization, consolidation, merger, dissolution, sale of assets 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 action as
may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the holder of
this Warrant against impairment.
6. Notices of Record Date, etc. In case:
(a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock (or
other stock or securities at the time deliverable upon the exercise of this
Warrant) for the purpose of entitling or enabling them to receive any dividend
or other distribution, or to receive any right to subscribe for or purchase any
shares of stock of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other
right; or
(b) any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification of the
capital stock of the Company, any consolidation or merger of the Company with or
into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which the
Company is the surviving entity), or any transfer of all or substantially all of
the assets of the Company; or
(c) of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up
of the Company, then, and in each such case, the Company will mail or cause to
be mailed to the Registered Holder of this Warrant at its last known address as
shown on the records of the Company a notice specifying, as the case may be, (i)
the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend,
distribution or right, and stating the amount and character of such dividend,
distribution or right, or (ii) the effective date on which such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or
winding-up is to take place, and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which
the holders of record of Common Stock (or such other stock or securities at the
time deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall be entitled to
exchange their shares of Common Stock (or such other stock or securities) for
securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or
winding-up. Such notice shall be mailed at least ten (10) days prior to the
record date or effective date for the event specified in such notice.
7. Reservation of Stock. The Company will at all times reserve and keep
available, solely for issuance and delivery upon the exercise of this Warrant,
such number of Warrant Shares and other stock, securities and property, as from
time to time shall be issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant.
8. Exchange of Warrants. Upon the surrender by the Registered Holder of any
Warrant or Warrants, properly endorsed, to the Company at the principal office
of the Company, the Company will, subject to the provisions of Section 4 hereof,
issue and deliver to or upon the order of such Holder, at the Company's expense,
a new
CUSIP No. 81371G 10 S 13D PAGE 55 of 62
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Warrant or Warrants of like tenor, in the name of such Registered Holder or as
such Registered Holder (upon payment by such Registered Holder of any applicable
transfer taxes) may direct, calling in the aggregate on the face or faces
thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock called for on the face or faces
of the Warrant or Warrants so surrendered.
9. Replacement of Warrants. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of
this Warrant and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) upon delivery of an
indemnity agreement (with surety if reasonably required) in an amount reasonably
satisfactory to the Company, or (in the case of mutilation) upon surrender and
cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will issue, in lieu thereof, a new
Warrant of like tenor.
10. Transfers, etc.
(a) The Company will maintain a register containing the names and addresses
of the Registered Holders of this Warrant. Any Registered Holder may change its
or his address as shown on the warrant register by written notice to the Company
requesting such change.
(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 4 hereof, this Warrant and all
rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this
Warrant with a properly executed assignment (in the form of Exhibit II hereto)
at the principal office of the Company.
(c) Until any transfer of this Warrant is made in the warrant register, the
Company may treat the Registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner
hereof for all purposes; provided, however, that if and when this Warrant is
properly assigned in blank, the Company may (but shall not be obligated to)
treat the bearer hereof as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes,
notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.
11. Mailing of Notices, etc. All notices and other communications from the
Company to the Registered Holder of this Warrant shall be mailed by first-class
certified or registered mail, postage prepaid to the address furnished to the
Company in writing by the last Registered Holder of this Warrant who shall have
furnished an address to the Company in writing. All notices and other
communications from the Registered Holder of this Warrant or in connection
herewith to the Company shall be mailed by first class certified or registered

its principal office to a place other than as set forth below, it shall give
prompt written notice to the Registered Holder of this Warrant and thereafter
all references in this Warrant to the Company's facsimile number and the
location of its principal office at the particular time shall be as so specified
in such notice.
12. No Rights as Stockholder. Until the exercise of this Warrant, the
Registered Holder of this Warrant shall not have or exercise any rights by
virtue hereof as a stockholder of the Company.
13. Change or Waiver. Any term of this Warrant may be changed or waived
only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement
is sought.
14. Headings. The headings in this Warrant are for purposes of reference
