Warrant without the payment of the Exercise Price, deliver to the Company (a) a
duly executed Notice of Exercise specifying the number of shares of Convertible

be issued and delivered to the holder hereof (or its nominee) or, subject to

the Notice of Exercise. Payment of such amount shall be made at the time of

ARTICLE IV
ANTIDILUTION PROVISIONS
4.1 Adjustment of Exercise Price. The Exercise Price shall be
subject to adjustment from time to time as hereinafter set forth. For purposes
of subsections (b) (c) and (d) below, the date on which the Exercise Price per
share shall be computed shall be the earlier of (A) the date on which the
Company shall enter into a firm contract for the issuance of the additional
Common Stock, Convertible Common Stock, Stock Purchase Rights or Convertible
Securities, as appropriate to such subsection ("Additional Securities"), or (B)
the date of the actual issuance of such Additional Securities. The date as of
which the Fair Value shall be computed shall be the last day of the most recent
period for which financial statements have been filed with the Commission prior
to the earlier of the dates determined pursuant to (A) and (B) above.
(a) Stock Dividends, Subdivisions and Combinations. In the
event that the Company shall:
(i) declare a dividend upon, or make any distribution
in respect of, any of its Common Stock or Convertible Common Stock, payable in
Common Stock, Convertible Common Stock, Convertible Securities or Stock Purchase
Rights, or
(ii) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock
or Convertible Common Stock into a larger number of shares, or
(iii) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock
or Convertible Common stock into a smaller number of shares,
then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to that price determined by
multiplying the Exercise Price per share immediately prior to such event by a
fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be the total number of outstanding
shares of Common Stock of the Company immediately prior to such event on a fully
diluted basis (assuming conversion of all Convertible Common Stock into Common
Stock and exercise of all Stock Purchase Rights and conversion of all
Convertible Securities), and (B) the denominator of which shall be the total
number of outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company immediately after
such event on a fully diluted basis (assuming conversion of all Convertible
Common Stock into Common Stock and exercise of all Stock Purchase Rights and
conversion of all Convertible Securities). The provisions of this Subsection
-8-
9
(a) shall not apply to any additional shares of Convertible Common Stock which
are distributed solely to holders of Convertible Common Stock pursuant to the 8%
stock dividend required under the Company's articles of incorporation ("Articles
of Incorporation").
(b) Issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock. In case the
Company shall issue or sell any shares of Common Stock for a consideration less
than the then Fair Value per share, the Exercise Price upon each such issuance
or sale shall be adjusted by:
multiplying the then existing Exercise Price by a fraction the numerator of
which is (A) the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such issue or sale on a fully diluted basis (assuming
conversion of all Convertible Common Stock into Common Stock and exercise of all
Stock Purchase Rights and conversion of all Convertible Securities) multiplied
by the Fair Value per share of Common Stock immediately prior to such issue or
sale on a fully diluted basis (assuming conversion of all Convertible Common
Stock into Common Stock and exercise of all Stock Purchase Rights and conversion
of all Convertible Securities) plus (2) the consideration received by the
Company upon such issue or sale, divided by (B) the total number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding immediately after such issue or sale on a fully diluted
basis (assuming conversion of all Convertible Common Stock into Common Stock and
exercise of all Stock Purchase Rights and conversion of all Convertible
Securities) and the denominator of which shall be the Fair Value per share of
Common Stock immediately prior to such issue or sale.
The provisions of this Subsection (b) shall not apply to any
additional shares of Convertible Common Stock which are distributed solely to
holders of Convertible Common Stock pursuant to the 8% stock dividend required
under the Articles of Incorporation or any additional shares of Common Stock or
Convertible Common Stock which are distributed as a result of a subdivision for
which an adjustment is provided for under Subsection (a) of this Section 4.1. No
adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made under this Subsection upon the
issuance of any additional shares of Common Stock or Convertible Common Stock
which are issued pursuant to the exercise of any Stock Purchase Rights or
pursuant to the conversion or exchange of any Convertible Securities to the
extent that such adjustment shall previously have been made upon the issuance of
such Stock Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities pursuant to Subsection (a)
(c) or (d) of this Section 4.1.
(c) Issuance of Stock Purchase Rights. In case the Company
shall issue or sell any Stock Purchase Rights and the consideration per share
for which additional shares of Common Stock may at any time thereafter be
issuable upon exercise thereof (or, in the case of Stock Purchase Rights
exercisable for the purchase of Convertible Securities, upon the subsequent
conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities) shall be less than the
then Fair Value per share, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted as provided in
subsection (b) of this Section 4.1 on the basis that (i) the maximum number of
additional shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Stock Purchase
Rights (or upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities following
such exercise) shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of the
determination of the Fair Value, as hereinafter provided, and (ii) the aggregate
consideration received for such additional shares of Common Stock shall be
deemed to be the minimum consideration received
-9-
10
and receivable by the Company in connection with the issuance and exercise of
such Stock Purchase Rights (or upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible
Securities).
(d) Issuance of Convertible Securities. In case the Company
shall issue or sell any Convertible Securities and the consideration per share
for which additional shares of Common Stock may at any time thereafter be
issuable pursuant to the terms of such Convertible Securities shall be less than
the Fair Value per share, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted as provided in
Subsection (b) of this Section 4.1 on the basis that (i) the maximum number of
additional shares of Common Stock necessary to effect the conversion or exchange
of all such Convertible Securities shall be deemed to have been issued as of the
date for the determination of the Fair Value, as hereinafter provided, and (ii)
the aggregate consideration received for such additional shares of Common Stock
shall be deemed to be equal to the minimum consideration received and receivable
by the Company in connection with the issuance and exercise of such Convertible
Securities. No adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made under this
Subsection upon the issuance of any Convertible Securities which are issued
pursuant to the exercise of any Stock Purchase Rights, if an adjustment shall
previously have been made upon the issuance of such Stock Purchase Rights
pursuant to Subsection (c) of this Section 4.1.
(e) Minimum Adjustment. In the event any adjustment of the
Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 4.1 shall result in an adjustment of
less than $0.01 per share of Convertible Common Stock, no such adjustment shall
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 $0.01 or more per share
of Convertible Common Stock; provided, however, that upon any adjustment of the
Exercise Price resulting from (i) the declaration of a dividend upon, or the
making of any distribution in respect of, any stock of the Company payable in
Common Stock or Convertible Securities or (ii) the reclassification by
subdivision, combination or otherwise, of the Common Stock into a greater or
smaller number of shares, the foregoing figure of $0.01 per share (or such
figure last adjusted) shall be proportionately adjusted and provided, further
upon the exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall make all necessary
adjustments (to the nearest 0.001 of a cent) not theretofore made to the
Exercise Price up to and including the date upon which this Warrant is
exercised.
(f) Readjustment of Exercise Price. In the event (i) the
purchase price payable for any Stock Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities
referred to in Subsection (c) or (d) above, (ii) the additional consideration,
if any, payable upon exercise of such Stock Purchase Rights or upon the
conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities or (iii) the rate at which
any Convertible Securities above are convertible into or exchangeable for
additional shares of Common Stock shall change, the Exercise Price in effect at
the time of such event shall forthwith be readjusted to the Exercise Price which
would have been in effect at such time had such Stock Purchase Rights or
Convertible Securities provided for such changed purchase price, additional
consideration or conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially
granted, issued or sold. On the expiration of any such Stock Purchase Rights not
exercised or of any such right to convert or exchange under such Convertible
Securities not exercised, the Exercise Price then in effect hereunder shall
forthwith be increased to the Exercise Price which would have been in effect at
-10-
11
the time of such expiration or termination had such Stock Purchase Rights or
Convertible Securities never been issued. No readjustment of the Exercise Price
pursuant to this Subsection (f) shall have the effect of increasing the Exercise
Price by an amount in excess of the adjustment originally made to the Exercise
Price in respect of the issue, sale or grant of the applicable Stock Purchase
Rights or Convertible Securities.
(g) Reorganization, Reclassification or Recapitalization of
Company. In case of any capital reorganization or reclassification or
recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company (other than in the cases
referred to in Subsection (a) of this Section 4.1), or in case of the
consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation, or in
case of the sale or transfer of the property of the Company as an entirety or
substantially as an entirety, there shall thereafter be deliverable upon the
exercise of this Warrant or any portion thereof (in lieu of or in addition to
the number of shares of Convertible Common Stock theretofore deliverable, as
appropriate) the number of shares of stock or other securities or property to
which the holder of the number of shares of Convertible Common Stock which would
otherwise have been deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant or any portion
thereof at the time would have been entitled upon such capital reorganization or
reclassification of capital stock, consolidation, merger or sale, and at the
same aggregate Exercise Price.
(h) Dilution in Case of Other Securities. In case any Other
Securities shall be issued or sold or shall become subject to issuance or sale
upon the conversion or exchange of any stock (or other securities) of the
Company (or any issuer of Other Securities or any other Person referred to in
Subsection (g)) or becomes subject to subscription, purchase or other
acquisition pursuant to any options or rights issued or granted by the Company
(or by any such other issuer or Person) for a consideration such as to dilute,
within the standards established in the other provisions of this ARTICLE IV, the
purchase rights granted by this Warrant, then, and in each such case, the
computations, adjustments and readjustments provided for in this ARTICLE IV with
respect to the Exercise Price shall be made as nearly as possible in the manner
so provided and applied to determine the amount of Other Securities from time to
time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant, so as to protect the holders
of the Warrant against the effect of such dilution.
(i) Other Dilutive Events. In case any event shall occur as to
which the other provisions of this ARTICLE IV are not strictly applicable but
the failure to make any adjustment would not fairly protect the purchase rights
represented by this Warrant in accordance with the intent and principles hereof,
then, in each such case, the Company shall appoint a firm of independent public
accountants of recognized national standing (which may be the regular auditors
of the Company), which shall give their opinion as to the adjustment, if any, on
a basis consistent with the intent and principles established in this Article
IV, necessary to preserve, without dilution, the purchase rights represented by
this Warrant. Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company will promptly mail a
copy thereof to the holder of this Warrant and shall make the adjustments
described therein.
(j) Determination of Consideration. For purposes of this
ARTICLE IV, the consideration received or receivable by the Company for the
issuance, sale, grant or assumption
-11-
12
of additional shares of Common Stock, Stock Purchase Rights or Convertible
Securities, irrespective of the accounting treatment of such consideration,
shall be valued as follows:
(1) Cash Payment. In the case of cash, the net amount received
by the Company after deduction of any underwriting commissions or similar
concessions paid or allowed by the Company.
(2) Securities or Other Property. The Fair Value of such
consideration as of the date immediately preceding the issuance, sale or grant
in question.
(3) Allocation Related to Common Stock, Stock Purchase Rights
and Convertible Securities. In the event additional shares of Common Stock,
Stock Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities are issued or sold together with
other securities or other assets of the Company for a consideration which covers
both, the consideration received (computed as provided in (1) and (2) above)
shall be allocable to such additional shares, rights, or securities, as
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.
(4) Dividends in Securities. In case the Company shall declare
a dividend or make any other distribution upon any capital stock of the Company
(other than the 8% dividend on the Convertible Common Stock) payable in Common
Stock, Convertible Securities or Stock Purchase Rights, such Common Stock,
Convertible Securities or Stock Purchase Rights, as the case may be, issuable in
payment of such dividend or distribution shall be deemed to have been issued or
sold without consideration.
(5) Stock Purchase Rights and Convertible Securities. The
consideration for which shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to be issued upon
the issuance of any Stock Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities shall be
determined by dividing (i) the total consideration, if any, received or
receivable by the Company as consideration for the granting of such Stock
Purchase Rights or the issuance of such Convertible Securities, plus the minimum
aggregate amount of additional consideration payable to the Company upon the
exercise of such Stock Purchase Rights, or, in the case of such Convertible
Securities, the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any,
payable upon the conversion or exchange thereof, in each case after deducting
any underwriting commissions or similar concessions paid or allowed by the
Company; by (ii) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
exercise of such Stock Purchase Rights or upon the conversion or exchange of all
such Convertible Securities.
(6) Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets. In case any
shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities or any Stock Purchase Rights
shall be issued in connection with any merger or consolidation in which the
Company is the surviving corporation, the amount of consideration therefor shall
be deemed to be the Fair Value of such portion of the assets and business of the
non-surviving corporation as shall be attributable to such Common Stock,
Convertible Securities or Stock Purchase Rights, as the case may be. In the
event of any merger or consolidation of the Company in which the Company is not
the surviving corporation or in the event of any sale of all or substantially
all of the assets of the Company for stock or other
-12-
13
securities of any corporation, the Company shall be deemed to have issued a
number of shares of its Common Stock for stock or securities of the other
corporation computed on the basis of the actual exchange ratio on which the
transaction was predicated and for a consideration equal to the Fair Value on
the date of such transaction of such stock or securities of the other
corporation, and if any such calculation results in adjustment of the Exercise
Price, the determination of the number of shares of Convertible Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such merger,
consolidation or sale, for the purposes of Subsection (g) above, shall be made
after giving effect to such adjustment of the Exercise Price.
(k) Record Date. In case the Company shall take a record of
the holders of the Common Stock or Convertible Common Stock for the purpose of
entitling them (i) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Common
Stock, Convertible Securities or Stock Purchase Rights (other than the regular
8% dividend payable on the Convertible Common Stock) or (ii) to subscribe for or
purchase Common Stock, Convertible Securities or Stock Purchase Rights, then all
references in this ARTICLE IV to the date of the issue or sale of the shares of
Common Stock, Convertible Securities or Stock Purchase Rights deemed to have
been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such
other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or
purchase, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be references to such record
date.
(l) Shares Outstanding. The number of shares of capital stock
deemed to be outstanding at any given time shall not include (i) shares of
capital stock in the treasury of the Company or any wholly-owned subsidiary and
(ii) except where shares are described on a "fully diluted basis," any of the
Convertible Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable.
(m) Maximum Exercise Price. At no time shall the Exercise
Price per share of Convertible Common Stock exceed the amount set forth in the
first paragraph of the Preamble of this Warrant except as provided in Subsection
(a) or (g) of this Section 4.1.
(n) Application. Except as otherwise provided herein, all
Subsections of this Section 4.1 are intended to operate independently of one
another, but without duplication. If an event occurs that requires the
application of more than one Subsection, all applicable Subsections shall be
given independent effect; provided, however, that no adjustment shall be made
which duplicates an adjustment already made pursuant to some other section of
this Article IV.
(o) No Adjustments under Certain Circumstances. Anything
herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall not be required to
make any adjustment of the Exercise Price in the case of:
(i) the issuance of shares of Convertible Common
Stock upon the exercise in whole or in part of this Warrant;
(ii) the issuance of shares of Convertible Common
Stock pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement; or
-13-
14
(iii) the issuance of options or shares of Common
Stock to employees or directors pursuant to an employment agreement, a stock
option agreement or a plan approved by the Board of Directors of the Company.
4.2 Rights Offering. In the event the Company shall effect an
offering of securities pro rata among its stockholders ("Rights Offering"), the
holder hereof shall be entitled, at its option, to elect to participate in each
and every such offering as if this Warrant had been exercised and the holder
were, at the time of any such rights offering, then a holder of that number of
shares of Convertible Common Stock to which such holder is then entitled on the
exercise hereof.
4.3 Certificates and Notices.
(a) Adjustments to Exercise Price. Upon any adjustment under
this ARTICLE IV of the Exercise Price, a certificate, signed (i) by the
President or a Vice President and by the Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer or
the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company, or (ii) by any
independent firm of certified public accountants of recognized national standing
selected by, and at the expense of, the Company and which can be the Company's
outside auditing firm, setting forth in reasonable detail the events requiring
the adjustment and the method by which such adjustment was calculated, shall be
mailed to the holder of this Warrant specifying the adjusted Exercise Price.
(b) Extraordinary Corporate Events. In case the Company after
the date hereof shall propose to (i) pay any dividend payable in stock to the
holders of shares of Common Stock or Convertible Common Stock or to make any
other distribution to the holders of shares of Common Stock or Convertible
Common Stock, other than the 8% stock dividend required under the Articles of
Incorporation, (ii) make a Rights Offering, or (iii) effect any reclassification
of the Common Stock or Convertible Common Stock (other than a reclassification
involving merely the subdivision or combination of outstanding shares of Common
Stock or Convertible Common Stock), or any capital reorganization or any
consolidation or merger (other than a merger in which no distribution of
securities or other property is to be made to holders of shares of Common Stock
or Convertible Common Stock) ("Reorganization") or any sale, transfer or other
disposition of its property, assets and business as an entirety or substantially
as an entirety ("Sale"), or the liquidation, dissolution or winding up
("Liquidation") of the Company, then, in each such case, the Company shall mail
to the holder of this Warrant notice of such proposed action, which shall
specify (x) the date on which the stock transfer books of the Company shall
close, or a record shall be taken, for determining the holders of Common Stock
or Convertible Common Stock entitled to receive such stock dividends or other
distribution or such rights or options, or (y) the date on which such
reclassification, Reorganization, Sale, or Liquidation shall take place or
commence, as the case may be, and (z) the date as of which it is expected that
holders of Common Stock or Convertible Common Stock of record shall be entitled
to receive securities or other property deliverable upon such action, if any
such date is to be fixed. Such notice shall be mailed, in the case of any action
covered by clause (i) or (ii) above, at least 10 days prior to the record date
for determining holders of Common Stock or Convertible Common Stock for purposes
of receiving such payment or offer, or in the case of any action covered by
-14-
15
clause (iii) above, at least 30 days prior to the date upon which such action
takes place and 20 days prior to any record date to determine holders of Common
Stock or Convertible Common Stock entitled to receive such securities or other
property.
(c) Effect of Failure. Failure to file any certificate or
notice or to mail any notice, or any defect in any certificate or notice
pursuant to this Section 4.3 shall not affect the legality or validity of the
adjustment of the Exercise Price or the number of shares purchasable upon
exercise of this Warrant, or any transaction giving rise thereto.
