FOR VALUE RECEIVED, subject to the provisions hereinafter set forth,
the undersigned, Raptor Networks Technology, Inc., a Colorado corporation
(together with its successors and assigns, the "ISSUER"), hereby certifies that
__________or its registered assigns is entitled to subscribe for and purchase,
during the period specified in this Warrant, ________ thousand (_________)
shares (subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided) of the duly authorized,
validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable Common Stock of the Issuer, at an
initial exercise price per share of $0.60. Capitalized terms used in this
Warrant and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings
specified in Section 8 hereof.
1. TERM. The right to subscribe for and purchase shares of Warrant
Stock represented hereby shall commence on February 11, 2005 and shall expire at
5:00 p.m., eastern time, on February 11, 2010 (such period being the "TERM").
2. METHOD OF EXERCISE PAYMENT; ISSUANCE OF NEW WARRANT; TRANSFER AND
EXCHANGE.
(a) TIME OF EXERCISE. The purchase rights represented by this Warrant
may be exercised in whole or in part at any time and from time to time during
the Term.
1
(b) METHOD OF EXERCISE. The Holder hereof may exercise this Warrant, in
whole or in part, by the surrender of this Warrant (with the exercise form
attached hereto duly executed) at the principal office of the Issuer, and by the
payment to the Issuer of an amount of consideration therefor equal to the
Warrant Price in effect on the date of such exercise multiplied by the number of
shares of Warrant Stock with respect to which this Warrant is then being
exercised, payable at such Holder's election (i) by certified or official bank
check or by wire transfer to an account designated by the Issuer, (ii) by
"cashless exercise" in accordance with the provisions of subsection (c) of this
Section 2 or (iii) by a combination of the foregoing methods of payment selected
by the Holder of this Warrant.
(c) CASHLESS EXERCISE. If the Per Share Market Value of one share of
Common Stock is greater than the Warrant Price (at the date of calculation as
set forth below), in lieu of exercising this Warrant by payment of cash, the
Holder may exercise this Warrant by a cashless exercise and shall receive the
number of shares of Common Stock equal to an amount (as determined below) by
surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Issuer together with
the properly endorsed Notice of Exercise in which event the Issuer shall issue
to the Holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following
formula:
X = Y - (A)(Y)
------
B
Where X = the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to
the Holder.
Y = the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable
upon exercise of all of the Warrant or, if only a
portion of the Warrant is being exercised, the
portion of the Warrant being exercised.
A = the Warrant Price.
B = the Per Share Market Value of one share of Common Stock.
(d) ISSUANCE OF STOCK CERTIFICATES. In the event of any exercise of the
rights represented by this Warrant in accordance with and subject to the terms
and conditions hereof, (i) certificates for the shares of Warrant Stock so
purchased shall be dated the date of such exercise and delivered to the Holder
hereof within a reasonable time, not exceeding five (5) Trading Days after such
exercise or, at the request of the Holder (provided that a registration
statement under the Securities Act providing for the resale of the Warrant Stock
is then in effect), issued and delivered to the Depository Trust Company ("DTC")
account on the Holder's behalf via the Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission
System ("DWAC") within a reasonable time, not exceeding five (5) Trading Days
after such exercise, and the Holder hereof shall be deemed for all purposes to
be the holder of the shares of Warrant Stock so purchased as of the date of such
exercise and (ii) unless this Warrant has expired, a new Warrant representing
the number of shares of Warrant Stock, if any, with respect to which this
Warrant shall not then have been exercised (less any amount thereof which shall
have been canceled in payment or partial payment of the Warrant Price as
hereinabove provided) shall also be issued to the Holder hereof at the Issuer's
expense within such time.
2
(e) TRANSFERABILITY OF WARRANT. Subject to Section 2(g), this Warrant
may be transferred by a Holder without the consent of the Issuer. If transferred
pursuant to this paragraph and subject to the provisions of subsection (g) of
this Section 2, this Warrant may be transferred on the books of the Issuer by
the Holder hereof in person or by duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of
this Warrant at the principal office of the Issuer, properly endorsed (by the
Holder executing an assignment in the form attached hereto) and upon payment of
any necessary transfer tax or other governmental charge imposed upon such
transfer. This Warrant is exchangeable at the principal office of the Issuer for
Warrants for the purchase of the same aggregate number of shares of Warrant
Stock, each new Warrant to represent the right to purchase such number of shares
of Warrant Stock as the Holder hereof shall designate at the time of such
exchange. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the
Original Issue Date and shall be identical with this Warrant except as to the
number of shares of Warrant Stock issuable pursuant hereto.
(f) CONTINUING RIGHTS OF HOLDER. The Issuer will, at the time of or at
any time after each exercise of this Warrant, upon the request of the Holder
hereof, acknowledge in writing the extent, if any, of its continuing obligation
to afford to such Holder all rights to which such Holder shall continue to be
entitled after such exercise in accordance with the terms of this Warrant,
PROVIDED that if any such Holder shall fail to make any such request, the
failure shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Issuer to afford such
rights to such Holder.
(g) COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES LAWS.
(i) The Holder of this Warrant, by acceptance hereof,
acknowledges that this Warrant or the shares of Warrant Stock to be
issued upon exercise hereof are being acquired solely for the Holder's
own account and not as a nominee for any other party, and for
investment, and that the Holder will not offer, sell or otherwise
dispose of this Warrant or any shares of Warrant Stock to be issued
upon exercise hereof except pursuant to an effective registration
statement, or an exemption from registration, under the Securities Act
and any applicable state securities laws.
(ii) Except as provided in paragraph (iii) below, this Warrant
and all certificates representing shares of Warrant Stock issued upon
exercise hereof shall be stamped or imprinted with a legend in
substantially the following form:
THIS WARRANT AND THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON
EXERCISE HEREOF HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES
ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT") OR ANY STATE
SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE
DISPOSED OF UNLESS REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND
UNDER APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR RAPTOR NETWORKS
TECHNOLOGY, INC. SHALL HAVE RECEIVED AN OPINION OF ITS COUNSEL
THAT REGISTRATION OF SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT
AND UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS
IS NOT REQUIRED.
3
(iii) The Issuer agrees to reissue this Warrant or
certificates representing any of the Warrant Stock, without the legend
set forth above if at such time, prior to making any transfer of any
such securities, the Holder shall give written notice to the Issuer
describing the manner and terms of such transfer and removal as the
Issuer may reasonably request. Such proposed transfer and removal will
not be effected until: (a) either (i) the Issuer has received an
opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer, to the effect
that the registration of such securities under the Securities Act is
not required in connection with such proposed transfer, (ii) a
registration statement under the Securities Act covering such proposed
disposition has been filed by the Issuer with the Securities and
Exchange Commission and has become effective under the Securities Act,
(iii) the Issuer has received other evidence reasonably satisfactory to
the Issuer that such registration and qualification under the
Securities Act and state securities laws are not required, or (iv) the
Holder provides the Issuer with reasonable assurances that such
security can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act; and
(b) either (i) the Issuer has received an opinion of counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the Issuer, to the effect that registration or
qualification under the securities or "blue sky" laws of any state is
not required in connection with such proposed disposition, or (ii)
compliance with applicable state securities or "blue sky" laws has been
effected or a valid exemption exists with respect thereto. The Issuer
will respond to any such notice from a holder within five (5) business
days. In the case of any proposed transfer under this Section 2(g), the
Issuer will use reasonable efforts to comply with any such applicable
state securities or "blue sky" laws, but shall in no event be required,
(x) to qualify to do business in any state where it is not then
qualified, or (y) to take any action that would subject it to tax or to
the general service of process in any state where it is not then
subject. The restrictions on transfer contained in this Section 2(g)
shall be in addition to, and not by way of limitation of, any other
restrictions on transfer contained in any other section of this
Warrant.
(h) In no event may the Holder exercise this Warrant in whole or in
part unless the Holder is an "accredited investor" as defined in Regulation D
under the Securities Act.
3. STOCK FULLY PAID; RESERVATION AND LISTING OF SHARES; COVENANTS.
(a) STOCK FULLY PAID. The Issuer represents, warrants, covenants and
agrees that all shares of Warrant Stock which may be issued upon the exercise of
this Warrant or otherwise hereunder will, upon issuance, be duly authorized,
validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all taxes, liens and
charges created by or through Issuer. The Issuer further covenants and agrees
that during the period within which this Warrant may be exercised, the Issuer
will at all times have authorized and reserved for the purpose of the issue upon
exercise of this Warrant a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to
provide for the exercise of this Warrant.
4
(b) RESERVATION. If any shares of Common Stock required to be reserved
for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant or as otherwise provided hereunder
require registration or qualification with any governmental authority under any
federal or state law before such shares may be so issued, the Issuer will in
good faith use its best efforts as expeditiously as possible at its expense to
cause such shares to be duly registered or qualified. If the Issuer shall list
any shares of Common Stock on any securities exchange or market it will, at its
expense, list thereon, maintain and increase when necessary such listing, of,
all shares of Warrant Stock from time to time issued upon exercise of this
Warrant or as otherwise provided hereunder, and, to the extent permissible under
the applicable securities exchange rules, all unissued shares of Warrant Stock
which are at any time issuable hereunder, so long as any shares of Common Stock
shall be so listed. The Issuer will also so list on each securities exchange or
market, and will maintain such listing of, any other securities which the Holder
of this Warrant shall be entitled to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant
if at the time any securities of the same class shall be listed on such
securities exchange or market by the Issuer.
(c) COVENANTS. The Issuer shall not by any action including, without
limitation, amending the Articles of Incorporation or the by-laws of the Issuer,
or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger,
dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other 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 the Holder hereof against dilution (to the extent specifically
provided herein) or impairment. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Issuer will (i) not permit the par value, if any, of its Common
Stock to exceed the then effective Warrant Price, (ii) not amend or modify any
provision of the Articles of Incorporation or by-laws of the Issuer in any
manner that would adversely affect the rights of the Holders of the Warrants,
(iii) take all such action as may be reasonably necessary in order that the
Issuer may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of
Common Stock, free and clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances and restrictions
(other than as provided herein) upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (iv) use
its best efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from
any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be reasonably
necessary to enable the Issuer to perform its obligations under this Warrant.
(d) LOSS, THEFT, DESTRUCTION OF WARRANTS. Upon receipt of evidence
satisfactory to the Issuer of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction
or mutilation of any Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or
destruction, upon receipt of indemnity or security satisfactory to the Issuer
or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such
Warrant, the Issuer will make and deliver, in lieu of such lost, stolen,
destroyed or mutilated Warrant, a new Warrant of like tenor and representing the
right to purchase the same number of shares of Common Stock.
4. ADJUSTMENT OF WARRANT PRICE AND WARRANT SHARE NUMBER. The number of
shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable, and the price at
which such shares may be purchased upon exercise of this Warrant, shall be
subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 4. The
Issuer shall give the Holder notice of any event described below which requires
an adjustment pursuant to this Section 4 in accordance with Section 5.
(a) RECAPITALIZATION, REORGANIZATION, RECLASSIFICATION, CONSOLIDATION,
MERGER OR SALE.
5
(i) In case the Issuer after the Original Issue Date shall do
any of the following (each, a "TRIGGERING Event"): (a) consolidate with
or merge into any other Person and the Issuer shall not be the
continuing or surviving corporation of such consolidation or merger, or
(b) permit any other Person to consolidate with or merge into the
Issuer and the Issuer shall be the continuing or surviving Person but,
in connection with such consolidation or merger, any Capital Stock of
the Issuer shall be changed into or exchanged for Securities of any
other Person or cash or any other property, or (c) transfer all or
substantially all of its properties or assets to any other Person, or
(d) effect a capital reorganization or reclassification of its Capital
Stock, then, and in the case of each such Triggering Event, proper
provision shall be made so that, upon the basis and the terms and in
the manner provided in this Warrant, the Holder of this Warrant shall
be entitled upon the exercise hereof at any time after the consummation
of such Triggering Event, to the extent this Warrant is not exercised
prior to such Triggering Event, to receive at the Warrant Price in
effect at the time immediately prior to the consummation of such
Triggering Event in lieu of the Common Stock issuable upon such
exercise of this Warrant prior to such Triggering Event, the
Securities, cash and property to which such Holder would have been
entitled upon the consummation of such Triggering Event if such Holder
had exercised the rights represented by this Warrant immediately prior
thereto, subject to adjustments (subsequent to such corporate action)
as nearly equivalent as possible to the adjustments provided for
elsewhere in this Section 4.
(ii) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Warrant to the
contrary, the Issuer will not effect any Triggering Event if, prior to
the consummation thereof, each Person (other than the Issuer) which may
be required to deliver any Securities, cash or property upon the
exercise of this Warrant as provided herein shall assume, by written
instrument delivered to, and reasonably satisfactory to, the Holder of
this Warrant, (A) the obligations of the Issuer under this Warrant (and
if the Issuer shall survive the consummation of such Triggering Event,
such assumption shall be in addition to, and shall not release the
Issuer from, any continuing obligations of the Issuer under this
Warrant) and (B) the obligation to deliver to such Holder such shares
of Securities, cash or property as, in accordance with the foregoing
provisions of this subsection (a), such Holder shall be entitled to
receive, and such Person shall have similarly delivered to such Holder
an opinion of counsel for such Person, which counsel shall be
reasonably satisfactory to such Holder, stating that this Warrant shall
thereafter continue in full force and effect and the terms hereof
(including, without limitation, all of the provisions of this
subsection (a)) shall be applicable to the Securities, cash or property
which such Person may be required to deliver upon any exercise of this
Warrant or the exercise of any rights pursuant hereto.
(b) STOCK DIVIDENDS, SUBDIVISIONS AND COMBINATIONS. If at any time the
Issuer shall:
(i) take a record of the holders of its Common Stock
for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend payable in, or
other distribution of, Additional Shares of Common Stock,
(ii) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock
into a larger number of shares of Common Stock, or
6
(iii) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock
into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock,
then (1) the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable immediately after the occurrence of any such event shall be adjusted
to equal the number of shares of Common Stock which a record holder of the same
number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable
immediately prior to the occurrence of such event would own or be entitled to
receive after the happening of such event, and (2) the Warrant Price then in
effect shall be adjusted to equal (A) the Warrant Price then in effect
multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable immediately prior to the adjustment divided by (B) the number of
shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after
such adjustment.
(c) CERTAIN OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS. If at any time the Issuer shall take a
record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to
receive any dividend or other distribution of:
(i) cash (other than a cash dividend payable out of
earnings or earned surplus legally available for the payment of
dividends under the laws of the jurisdiction of incorporation of the
Issuer),
(ii) any evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of
stock of any class or any other securities or property of any nature
whatsoever (other than cash, Common Stock Equivalents or Additional
Shares of Common Stock), or
(iii) any warrants or other rights to subscribe for
or purchase any evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of stock of
any class or any other securities or property of any nature whatsoever
(other than cash, Common Stock Equivalents or Additional Shares of
Common Stock),
then (1) the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable shall be adjusted to equal the product of the number of shares of
Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such
adjustment multiplied by a fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be the Per
Share Market Value of Common Stock at the date of taking such record and (B) the
denominator of which shall be such Per Share Market Value minus the amount
allocable to one share of Common Stock of any such cash so distributable and of
the fair value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the
Issuer and supported by an opinion from an investment banking firm of recognized
national standing acceptable to the Holder) of any and all such evidences of
indebtedness, shares of stock, other securities or property or warrants or other
subscription or purchase rights so distributable, and (2) the Warrant Price then
in effect shall be adjusted to equal (A) the Warrant Price then in effect
multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable immediately prior to the adjustment divided by (B) the number of
7
shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after
such adjustment. A reclassification of the Common Stock (other than a change in
par value, or from par value to no par value or from no par value to par value)
into shares of Common Stock and shares of any other class of stock shall be
deemed a distribution by the Issuer to the holders of its Common Stock of such
shares of such other class of stock within the meaning of this Section 4(c) and,
if the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be changed into a larger or
smaller number of shares of Common Stock as a part of such reclassification,
such change shall be deemed a subdivision or combination, as the case may be, of
the outstanding shares of Common Stock within the meaning of Section 4(b).
(d) ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL SHARES OF COMMON STOCK.
(i) In the event the Issuer shall at any time following the
Original Issue Date issue any Additional Shares of Common Stock (otherwise than
as provided in the foregoing subsections (a) through (c) of this Section 4), at
a price per share less than the Warrant Price then in effect or without
consideration, then the Warrant Price upon each such issuance shall be adjusted
to that price determined by multiplying the Warrant Price then in effect by a
fraction:
(A) the numerator of which shall be equal to the sum
of (x) the number of shares of Outstanding Common Stock
immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Shares of
Common Stock PLUS (y) the number of shares of Common Stock
(rounded to the nearest whole share) which the aggregate
consideration for the total number of such Additional Shares
of Common Stock so issued would purchase at a price per share
equal to the Warrant Price then in effect, and
(B) the denominator of which shall be equal to the
number of shares of Outstanding Common Stock immediately after
the issuance of such Additional Shares of Common Stock.
(ii) No adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock for
which this Warrant shall be exercisable shall be made under paragraph (i) of
Section 4(d) upon the issuance of any Additional Shares of Common Stock which
are issued pursuant to the exercise of any Common Stock Equivalents, if any such
adjustment shall previously have been made upon the issuance of such Common
Stock Equivalents or upon the issuance of any warrant or other rights therefor
pursuant to Sections 4(e) or 4(f), or in connection with any Permitted
Issuances.
(e) ISSUANCE OF WARRANTS OR OTHER RIGHTS. If at any time the Issuer
shall take a record of the Holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of
entitling them to receive a distribution of, or shall in any manner (whether
directly or by assumption in a merger in which the Issuer is the surviving
corporation) issue or sell any warrants or options, whether or not immediately
exercisable, and the Warrant Consideration (hereafter defined) per share for
which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such warrant or option shall
be less than the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to the time of such
issue or sale, then the Warrant Price then in effect immediately prior to the
time of such issue or sale, shall be adjusted to that price (rounded to the
nearest cent) determined by multiplying the Warrant Price by a fraction: (1) the
numerator of which shall be equal to the sum of (A) the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance or sale of such
warrants or options PLUS (B) the number of shares of Common Stock (rounded to
the nearest whole share) which the Warrant Consideration multiplied by the
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise or conversion of all
8
such warrants or options, would purchase at a price per share equal to the
Warrant Price then in effect, and (2) the denominator of which shall be equal to
the number of shares of Common Stock that would be outstanding assuming the
exercise or conversion of all such warrants and options. No adjustments of the
Warrant Price then in effect shall be made upon the actual issue of such Common
Stock or of such Common Stock Equivalents upon exercise of such warrants or
other rights or upon the actual issue of such Common Stock upon such conversion
or exchange of such Common Stock Equivalents. No adjustments of the Warrant
Price shall be required under this Section 4(e) in connection with any Permitted
Issuances.
(f) ISSUANCE OF COMMON STOCK EQUIVALENTS. If at any time the Issuer
shall take a record of the Holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of
entitling them to receive a distribution of, or shall in any manner (whether
directly or by assumption in a merger in which the Issuer is the surviving
corporation) issue or sell, any Common Stock Equivalents, whether or not the
rights to exchange or convert thereunder are immediately exercisable, and the
Common Stock Equivalent Consideration (hereafter defined) per share for which
Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion or exchange shall be less than the
Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to the time of such issue or sale,
then the Warrant Price then in effect immediately prior to the time of such
issue or sale, shall upon each such issuance or sale be adjusted to that price
(rounded to the nearest cent) determined by multiplying the Warrant Price by a
fraction: (1) the numerator of which shall be equal to the sum of (A) the number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance or sale
of such Common Stock Equivalents PLUS (B) the number of shares of Common Stock
(rounded to the nearest whole share) which the Common Stock Equivalent
Consideration multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
the exercise or conversion of all such Common Stock Equivalents, would purchase
at a price per share equal to the Warrant Price then in effect, and (2) the
denominator of which shall be equal to the number of shares of Common Stock that
would be outstanding assuming the exercise or conversion of all such Common
Stock Equivalents. No further adjustment of the Warrant Price then in effect
shall be made under this Section 4(f) upon the issuance of any Common Stock
Equivalents which are issued pursuant to the exercise of any warrants or other
subscription or purchase rights therefor, if any such adjustment shall
previously have been made upon the issuance of such warrants or other rights
pursuant to Section 4(e). No further adjustments of the Warrant Price then in
effect shall be made upon the actual issue of such Common Stock upon conversion
or exchange of such Common Stock Equivalents. No adjustments of the Warrant
Price shall be required under this Section 4(f) in connection with any Permitted
Issuances.
(g) SUPERSEDING ADJUSTMENT. If, at any time after any adjustment of the
number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable and the
Warrant Price then in effect shall have been made pursuant to Section 4(e) or
Section 4(f) as the result of any issuance of warrants, other rights or Common
Stock Equivalents, and (i) such warrants or other rights, or the right of
conversion or exchange in such other Common Stock Equivalents, shall expire, and
all or a portion of such warrants or other rights, or the right of conversion or
exchange with respect to all or a portion of such other Common Stock
Equivalents, as the case may be shall not have been exercised, or (ii) the
consideration per share for which shares of Common Stock are issuable pursuant
to such Common Stock Equivalents, shall be increased solely by virtue of
provisions therein contained for an automatic increase in such consideration per
share upon the occurrence of a specified date or event, then for each
outstanding Warrant such previous adjustment shall be rescinded and annulled and
the Additional Shares of Common Stock which were deemed to have been issued by
9
virtue of the computation made in connection with the adjustment so rescinded
and annulled shall no longer be deemed to have been issued by virtue of such
computation. Upon the occurrence of an event set forth in this Section 4(g)
above, there shall be a recomputation made of the effect of such Common Stock
Equivalents on the basis of: (i) treating the number of Additional Shares of
Common Stock or other property, if any, theretofore actually issued or issuable
pursuant to the previous exercise of any such warrants or other rights or any
such right of conversion or exchange, as having been issued on the date or dates
of any such exercise and for the consideration actually received and receivable
therefor, and (ii) treating any such Common Stock Equivalents which then remain
outstanding as having been granted or issued immediately after the time of such
increase of the consideration per share for which shares of Common Stock or
other property are issuable under such Common Stock Equivalents; whereupon a new
adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable and the Warrant Price then in effect shall be made, which new
adjustment shall supersede the previous adjustment so rescinded and annulled.
(h) PURCHASE OF COMMON STOCK BY THE ISSUER. If the Issuer at any time
while this Warrant is outstanding shall, directly or indirectly through a
Subsidiary or otherwise, purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any shares of
Common Stock at a price per share greater than the Per Share Market Value, then
the Warrant Price upon each such purchase, redemption or acquisition shall be
adjusted to that price determined by multiplying such Warrant Price by a
fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding immediately prior to such purchase, redemption or acquisition
minus the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration for
the total number of such shares of Common Stock so purchased, redeemed or
acquired would purchase at the Per Share Market Value; and (ii) the denominator
of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
after such purchase, redemption or acquisition. For the purposes of this
subsection (h), the date as of which the Per Share Market Price shall be
computed shall be the earlier of (x) the date on which the Issuer shall enter
into a firm contract for the purchase, redemption or acquisition of such Common
Stock, or (y) the date of actual purchase, redemption or acquisition of such
Common Stock. For the purposes of this subsection (h), a purchase, redemption or
acquisition of a Common Stock Equivalent shall be deemed to be a purchase of the
underlying Common Stock, and the computation herein required shall be made on
the basis of the full exercise, conversion or exchange of such Common Stock
Equivalent on the date as of which such computation is required hereby to be
made, whether or not such Common Stock Equivalent is actually exercisable,
convertible or exchangeable on such date.
(i) OTHER PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO ADJUSTMENTS UNDER THIS SECTION. The
following provisions shall be applicable to the making of adjustments of the
number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable and the
Warrant Price then in effect provided for in this Section 4:
(i) COMPUTATION OF CONSIDERATION. To the extent that any
Additional Shares of Common Stock or any Common Stock Equivalents (or any
warrants or other rights therefor) shall be issued for cash consideration, the
consideration received by the Issuer therefor shall be the amount of the cash
received by the Issuer therefor, or, if such Additional Shares of Common Stock
or Common Stock Equivalents are offered by the Issuer for subscription, the
subscription price, or, if such Additional Shares of Common Stock or Common
Stock Equivalents are sold to underwriters or dealers for public offering
without a subscription offering, the initial public offering price (in any such
10
case subtracting any amounts paid or receivable for accrued interest or accrued
dividends and without taking into account any compensation, discounts or
expenses paid or incurred by the Issuer for and in the underwriting of, or
otherwise in connection with, the issuance thereof). To the extent that such
issuance shall be for a consideration other than cash, then, except as herein
otherwise expressly provided, the amount of such consideration shall be deemed
to be the fair value of such consideration at the time of such issuance as
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Issuer. The
consideration for any Additional Shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to any
warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase the same shall be the
consideration received by the Issuer for issuing such warrants or other rights
divided by the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of
such warrant or right plus the additional consideration payable to the Issuer
upon exercise of such warrant or other right for one share of Common Stock
(together the "Warrant Consideration"). The consideration for any Additional
Shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of any Common Stock
Equivalents shall be the consideration received by the Issuer for issuing such
Common Stock Equivalent, divided by the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon the conversion or other exercise of such Common Stock Equivalent,
plus the additional consideration, if any, payable to the Issuer upon the
exercise of the right of conversion or exchange in such Common Stock Equivalent
for one share of Common Stock (together the "Common Stock Equivalent
Consideration"). In case of the issuance at any time of any Additional Shares of
Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents in payment or satisfaction of any
dividends upon any class of stock other than Common Stock, the Issuer shall be
deemed to have received for such Additional Shares of Common Stock or Common
Stock Equivalents a consideration equal to the amount of such dividend so paid
or satisfied.
(ii) WHEN ADJUSTMENTS TO BE MADE. The adjustments required by
this Section 4 shall be made whenever and as often as any specified event
requiring an adjustment shall occur, except that any adjustment of the number of
shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable that would
otherwise be required may be postponed (except in the case of a subdivision or
combination of shares of the Common Stock, as provided for in Section 4(b)) up
to, but not beyond the date of exercise if such adjustment either by itself or
with other adjustments not previously made adds or subtracts less than one
percent (1%) of the shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable
immediately prior to the making of such adjustment. Any adjustment representing
a change of less than such minimum amount (except as aforesaid) which is
postponed shall be carried forward and made as soon as such adjustment, together
with other adjustments required by this Section 4 and not previously made, would
result in a minimum adjustment or on the date of exercise. For the purpose of
any adjustment, any specified event shall be deemed to have occurred at the
close of business on the date of its occurrence.
(iii) FRACTIONAL INTERESTS. In computing adjustments under
this Section 4, fractional interests in Common Stock shall be taken into account
to the nearest one one-hundredth (1/100th) of a share.
11
(iv) WHEN ADJUSTMENT NOT REQUIRED. If the Issuer shall take a
record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to
receive a dividend or distribution or subscription or purchase rights and shall,
thereafter and before the distribution to stockholders thereof, legally abandon
its plan to pay or deliver such dividend, distribution, subscription or purchase
rights, then thereafter no adjustment shall be required by reason of the taking
of such record and any such adjustment previously made in respect thereof shall
be rescinded and annulled.
(j) FORM OF WARRANT AFTER ADJUSTMENTS. The form of this Warrant need
not be changed because of any adjustments in the Warrant Price or the number and
kind of Securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant.
(k) ESCROW OF WARRANT STOCK. If after any property becomes
distributable pursuant to this Section 4 by reason of the taking of any record
of the holders of Common Stock, but prior to the occurrence of the event for
which such record is taken, and the Holder exercises this Warrant, any shares of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise by reason of such adjustment shall be deemed
the last shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercised
(notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary herein) and such shares or
other property shall be held in escrow for the Holder by the Issuer to be issued
to the Holder upon and to the extent that the event actually takes place, upon
payment of the current Warrant Price. Notwithstanding any other provision to the
contrary herein, if the event for which such record was taken fails to occur or
is rescinded, then such escrowed shares shall be cancelled by the Issuer and
escrowed property returned.
5. NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENTS. Whenever the Warrant Price or Warrant Share
Number shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 4 hereof (for purposes of this
Section 5, each an "adjustment"), the Issuer shall cause its Chief Financial
Officer to prepare and execute a certificate setting forth, in reasonable
detail, the event requiring the adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the

basis on which the Board made any determination hereunder), and the Warrant
Price and Warrant Share Number after giving effect to such adjustment, and shall
cause copies of such certificate to be delivered to the Holder of this Warrant
promptly after each adjustment. Any dispute between the Issuer and the Holder of
this Warrant with respect to the matters set forth in such certificate may at
the option of the Holder of this Warrant be submitted to one of the national
accounting firms currently known as the "big five" selected by the Holder,
PROVIDED that the Issuer shall have ten (10) days after receipt of notice from
such Holder of its selection of such firm to object thereto, in which case such
Holder shall select another such firm and the Issuer shall have no such right of
objection. The firm selected by the Holder of this Warrant as provided in the
preceding sentence shall be instructed to deliver a written opinion as to such
matters to the Issuer and such Holder within thirty (30) days after submission
to it of such dispute. Such opinion shall be final and binding on the parties
hereto.
6. FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares of Warrant Stock will be
issued in connection with and exercise hereof, but in lieu of such fractional
shares, the Issuer shall make a cash payment therefor equal in amount to the
product of the applicable fraction multiplied by the Per Share Market Value then
in effect.
