to purchase up to One Hundred Twenty Seven Thousand Two Hundred Seventy
(127,270) shares (the "Shares") of Common Stock of Analogy, Inc., an Oregon
corporation (the "Company"), at a price per share of $ 4.125 (such price and
such other price as shall result, from time to time, from adjustments specified
below is referred to herein as the "Warrant Price"), subject to the provisions
and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. As used herein, the
term "Common Stock" shall mean the Company's duly authorized Common Stock, no
par value, and the term "Grant Date" shall mean the date set forth above.
1. TERM.
a. WHEN EXERCISABLE. Subject to the terms hereof, the purchase
rights represented by this Warrant vesting and becoming exercisable, in
accordance with the following schedule:
31,817 Shares on that date which is 6 months from the date hereof
31,818 Shares on that date which is 12 months from the date hereof;
31,817 Shares on that date which is 18 months from the date hereof;
and
31,818 Shares on that date which is 24 months from the date hereof;
provided, however, that in the event Hu's employment with the Company or any
affiliate thereof is terminated for "cause" (as defined in that certain
Employment Agreement by and between Symmetry Design Systems, Inc. and Chenmin Hu
dated as of November 22, 1996 (the "Employment Agreement")) or voluntarily by Hu
prior to November 22, 1998, the purchase rights represented by this Warrant
shall vest and be exercisable if and only as vested and exercisable on the date
of such termination and in accordance with the last sentence of this Paragraph
1; and provided, further, that in the event Hu's employment with the Company or
any affiliate thereof is terminated without "cause" (as defined in the
1
Employment Agreement) prior to November 22, 1998, the purchase rights
represented by this Warrant shall continue to vest and become exercisable in
accordance with the foregoing schedule and the last sentence of this Paragraph
1. Hu may exercise the purchase rights represented by this Warrant (to the
extent the same are vested and exercisable), no later than the 180th day
following (i) the termination date of Hu's employment with the Company or any
affiliate thereof if such termination was for "cause" or voluntary, or (ii) the
period ending November 22, 1998 if Hu's employment with the Company or any
affiliate thereof was terminated without "cause."
b. ACCELERATION OF EXERCISABLITY. Notwithstanding the
provisions of subparagraph 1(a) above, in the case of (i) any merger of the
Company with or into another corporation where the Company is not the survivor
of such merger, (ii) any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Company, (iii) any acquisition by any person, entity or group within the meaning
of Section 13(d) or 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the "Exchange Act"), of the beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule
13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of securities of the Company
representing in excess of fifty percent (50%) of the voting power entitled to
vote in the election of directors, or (iv) the death or permanent disability of
Hu, then, upon the effective date of such merger, sale or acquisition, or upon
the date of such death or determination of permanent disability, 100% of the
Shares shall be vested and immediately exercisable.
2. METHOD OF EXERCISE; NET ISSUE EXERCISE.
a. METHOD OF EXERCISE: PAYMENT: ISSUANCE OF NEW WARRANT. The
purchase right represented by this Warrant may be exercised by Hu, in whole or
in part, at any time or from time to time, at the election of Hu, by the
surrender of this Warrant (with the notice of exercise form attached hereto as
EXHIBIT A duly executed) at the principal office of the Company and by the
payment to the Company, by cash, check or wire transfer, of an amount equal to
the then applicable Warrant Price per share multiplied by the number of Shares
then being purchased.
b. NET ISSUE EXERCISE. In lieu of exercising this Warrant
under subparagraph 2(a) above, Hu may elect to receive shares equal to the value
of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being canceled) by surrender of this
Warrant at the principal office of the Company, together with notice of such
election, in which event the Company shall issue to Hu a number of Shares
computed using the following formula:
X= Y(A-B)
------
A
Where: X= The number of Shares to be issued to Hu
Y= the number of Shares to be exercised under this Warrant at the
time of such exercise (which number shall not exceed the
total number of Shares exercisable under this Warrant at the
time of such tender.)
2
A= the fair market value of one share of Common Stock at the time of
such exercise.
B= the per share Warrant Price (as adjusted through the date of such
exercise.)
For purposes of this subparagraph 2(b), the fair market value of the Common
Stock shall be determined as follows:
(a) if traded on a securities exchange, the fair
market value shall be the average of the closing prices over the ten (10) day
trading period immediately preceding three days before the day the current fair
market value of the securities is being determined; or
(b) if actively traded over-the-counter, the fair
market value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing bid and asked
prices quoted on the Nasdaq system (or similar system) over the ten (10) day
trading period immediately preceding three days before the day the current fair
market value of the securities is being determined.
The person or persons in whose name(s) any certificate(s) representing
Shares shall be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have
become the holder(s) of record of, and shall be treated for all purposes as the
record holder(s) of, the shares represented thereby (and such shares shall be
deemed to have been issued) immediately prior to the close of business on the
date or dates upon which this Warrant is exercised. In the event of any
exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, certificates for the shares
of stock so purchased shall be delivered to Hu as soon as possible and in any
event within fifteen (15) days of receipt of such exercise and, unless this
Warrant has been fully exercised or expired, a new Warrant representing the
portion of the Shares, if any, with respect to which this Warrant shall not then
have been exercised shall also be issued to Hu as soon as possible and in any
event within such fifteen (15)-day period.
3. STOCK FULLY PAID; RESERVATION OF SHARES. All Shares that may be
issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon
issuance, be fully paid and nonassessable, and free from all taxes, liens and
charges with respect to the issue thereof. During the period within which the
rights represented by the Warrant may be exercised, the Company will at all
times have authorized and reserved for the purpose of issuance upon exercise of
the purchase rights evidenced by this Warrant, a sufficient number of Shares to
provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant.
4. ADJUSTMENT OF WARRANT PRICE AND NUMBER OF SHARES. The number and
kind of securities purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant and the Warrant
Price shall be subject to adjustment form time to time upon the occurrence of
certain events as follows:
a. RECLASSIFICATION OR MERGER. In case of any
recapitalization, reclassification, change or conversion of Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of this
3
Warrant (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or
from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination),
or in case of any merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other
than a merger with another corporation in which the Company is the continuing
and surviving corporation and which does not result in any reclassification or
change of outstanding securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant), or in
case of any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, the
Company, or such successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, shall
execute a new Warrant (in form and substance satisfactory to Hu) providing that
Hu shall have the right to exercise such new Warrant and upon such exercise to
receive, in lieu of each share of Common Stock theretofore issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock, other
securities, money and property receivable upon such reclassification, change or
merger by a holder of one share of Common Stock. Such new Warrant shall provide
for adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the
adjustments provided for in this Paragraph 4. The provisions of this
subparagraph 4(a) shall similarly apply to successive reclassification, changes,
mergers and transfers.
b. SUBDIVISION OR COMBINATION OF SHARES. If the Company at any
time while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired shall subdivide or
combine its Common Stock, the Warrant Price and the number of shares of Common
Stock issuable upon exercise hereof shall be proportionately adjusted such that
the aggregate exercise price of this Warrant shall at all time remain equal, and
such that Hu will be entitled to receive, after such subdivision or combination,
that number of shares Hu would have been entitled to received in connection with
such subdivision or combination if Hu had exercised this Warrant immediately
prior to the effective date of such subdivision or combination.
c. STOCK DIVIDENDS. If the Company at any time while this
Warrant is outstanding and unexpired shall pay a dividend payable in shares of
Common Stock (except any distribution specifically provided for in the foregoing
subparagraphs 4(a) and 4(b), then (i) the Warrant Price shall be adjusted, from
and after the date of determination of shareholders entitled to receive such
dividend or distribution, to that price determined by multiplying the Warrant
Price in effect immediately prior to such date of determination by a fraction
(x) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to such dividend or distribution, and (y) the
denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately after such dividend or distribution and (ii) the number
of shares of Common Stock subject to this Warrant shall be proportionately
adjusted such that the aggregate exercise price of this Warrant shall at all
times remain equal.
d. NO IMPAIRMENT. The Company will not, by amendment of its
Articles of Incorporation or through any reorganization, recapitalization,
transfer or 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 to be observed or performed hereunder by the
Company, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all
the provisions of this Paragraph 4 and in the taking of all such action as
4
may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of Hu as the
holder of this Warrant against impairment.
e. NOTICES OF SIGNIFICANT EVENTS. At any time while this
Warrant is outstanding and unexpired, in the event the Company undertakes the
payment of any dividend or other distribution or a merger or consolidation of
the Company with or into any other corporation, or any proposed sale, lease or
conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any
proposed liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, or any proposed
amendment to the Company's Articles of Incorporation, or any public offering of
its Common Stock the Company shall mail to Hu, at least twenty (20) days prior
to the date of consummating such event, a notice specifying the event and the
date on which such event is then proposed to be consummated, and before which it
will not be consummated.
5. NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENTS. Whenever, while this Warrant is
outstanding and unexpired, the Warrant Price shall be adjusted pursuant to the
provisions hereof, the Company shall within thirty (30) days of such adjustment
deliver a certificate signed by its chief financial officer to Hu as the
registered holder hereof setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event
requiring the adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such
adjustment was calculated, and the Warrant Price after giving effect to such
adjustment.
6. FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares of Common Stock will be
issued in connection with any exercise hereunder, but in lieu of such fractional
shares, the Company shall make a cash payment therefor upon the basis of the
Warrant Price then in effect.
7. RIGHTS AS SHAREHOLDER. Hu, as the holder of the Warrant, shall
not be entitled to vote or receive dividends and shall not be deemed the holder
of Common Stock, nor shall anything contained herein be construed to confer upon
Hu as the holder of this Warrant, any of the rights of a shareholder of the
Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter
submitted to shareholders at any meeting thereof, or to receive notice of
meetings, or to receive dividends or subscription rights or otherwise until this
Warrant shall have been exercised and the shares of Common Stock purchasable
upon the exercise hereof shall have become deliverable, as provided herein.
8. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY. The Company
hereby represents and warrants to Hu as follows:
a. The Company is a corporation duly organized and active under
the laws of the State of Oregon and has all requisite corporate power and
authority to carry on its business as now conducted.
b. This Warrant has been duly authorized by all necessary
corporate action by the Company and has been duly executed by the Company, and

similar laws related to creditors' rights or equitable remedies.

duly authorized and reserved for issuance by the Company and when issued in
accordance with the terms hereof, will be validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable and will be issued in compliance with all applicable federal and

d. The execution and delivery of this Warrant does not, and the
issuance of the shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant in

not contravene any law, governmental rule or regulation, judgment or order
currently applicable to the Company, and does not and will not contravene any
provision of, or constitute a default under, any indenture, mortgage, contract,

purposes only and not with a view to any "distribution" thereof that would not
otherwise be in compliance with the Act.

upon the exercise of this Warrant must be held indefinitely unless subsequently
registered under the Act and any applicable state securities laws, or unless
exemptions from registration are otherwise available.

an affiliate of such issuer), in a non-public offering subject to the
satisfaction of certain conditions.
6
e. With respect to any offer, sale or other disposition of this
Warrant or any Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant prior to
registration of such Warrant or Shares, Hu hereof and each subsequent holder of
this Warrant agrees to (i) give written notice to the Company prior thereto,
describing the manner thereof and (ii) if reasonably requested by the Company,
an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, confirming that
such offer, sale or other disposition may be effected without registration or
qualification under the Act as then in effect or any federal or state law then
in effect.
10. MODIFICATION AND WAIVER. This Warrant and any provision hereof
may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated only if expressly set forth in
an instrument in writing signed by the Company and Hu.
11. NOTICES. Unless otherwise provided, any notice required or

indicated for such party on the signature page hereof, or such other address as
such party may designate by 10 days advance written notice to the other party.
12. BINDING EFFECT ON SUCCESSORS. This Warrant shall be binding upon
any corporation succeeding the Company by merger, consolidation or acquisition
of all or substantially all of the Company's assets, and all of the obligations
of the Company relating to the Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this
Warrant shall survive the exercise and termination of this Warrant, and all of
the covenants and agreements of the Company shall inure to the benefit of the
successors and assigns of the holder hereof. The Company will, at the time of
the exercise of this Warrant, in whole or in part, upon request of the holder
hereof but at the Company's expense, acknowledge in writing its continuing
obligation to the holder hereof in respect of any rights to which the holder
hereof shall continue to be entitled after such exercise in accordance with this
Warrant; provided, that the failure of the holder hereof to make any such
request shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Company to the holder
hereof in respect of such rights.
13. LOST WARRANTS OR STOCK CERTIFICATES. The Company covenants to
the holder hereof that upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the
Company of the loss, theft, destruction, or mutilation of this Warrant or any
stock certificate 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 or stock
certificate, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock
certificate, of like tenor, in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed, or mutilated
Warrant or stock certificate.
14. DESCRIPTIVE HEADINGS. The descriptive headings of the several
paragraphs of this Warrant are inserted for convenience only and do not
constitute a part of this Warrant.

residents entered into and to be performed entirely within Oregon.
16. REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The Shares shall be entitled to those
