STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for value received, XXXXXXXXX XXXXXX CAPTIAL GROUP,
INC. or its registered assigns, is entitled to purchase from Imaging
Technologies Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), at any time or
from time to time during the period specified in Paragraph 2 hereof, Six Hundred
Two Thousand, Four Hundred Ten (602,410) fully paid and nonassessable shares of
the Company's Com-mon Stock, par value $0.005 per share (the "Common Stock"), at
an exercise price per share equal to the lesser of (i) $.0166 and (ii) the
average of the lowest three (3) Trading Prices (as defined below) during the
thirty (30) Trading Days (as defined below) immediately prior to exercise,
discounted by 30% (the "Exercise Price"). The term "Warrant Shares," as used
herein, refers to the shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder. The Warrant
Shares and the Exercise Price are subject to adjustment as provided in Paragraph
4 hereof. The term "Warrants" means this Warrant issued pursuant to that
certain Transaction Fee Agreement, dated January 22, 2002, by and between
Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx Securities, Inc. and the Company and the other warrants issued
pursuant to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated January 22, 2002,
by and among the Company and the Buyers listed on the execution page thereof
(the "Securities Purchase Agreement"). "Trading Price" means, for any security
as of any date, the intraday trading price on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin
Board (the "OTCBB") as reported by Bloomberg Financial Markets or an equivalent,
reliable reporting service mutually acceptable to and hereafter designated by
the holder hereof and the Company ("Bloomberg") or, if the OTCBB is not the
principal trading market for such security, the intraday trading price of such
security on the principal securities exchange or trading market where such
security is listed or traded as reported by Bloomberg or, if no intraday trading
price of such security is available in any of the foregoing manners, the average
of the intraday trading prices of any market makers for such security that are
listed in the "pink sheets" by the National Quotation Bureau, Inc. If the
Trading Price cannot be calculated for such security on such date in the manner
provided above, the Trading Price shall be the fair market value as mutually
determined by the Company and the holder hereof. "Trading Day" shall mean any
day on which the Common Stock is traded for any period on the OTCBB, or on the
principal securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common
Stock is then being traded.
This Warrant is subject to the following terms, provisions, and conditions:
-Manner of Exercise; Issuance of Certificates; Payment for Shares. Subject to
------------------------------------------------------------------
the provisions hereof, this Warrant may be exercised by the holder hereof, in
whole or in part, by the surrender of this Warrant, together with a completed
exercise agreement in the form attached hereto (the "Exercise Agreement"), to
the Company during normal business hours on any business day at the Company's
principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of the Company as it
may designate by notice to the holder hereof), and upon (i) payment to the
Company in cash, by certified or offi-cial bank check or by wire transfer for
the account of the Company of the Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares
specified in the Exercise Agreement or (ii) on or after ninety (90) days
following the date on which this Warrant is issued, if the resale of the Warrant
Shares by the holder is not then registered pursuant to an effective
registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"), delivery to the Company of a written notice of an election to
effect a "Cashless Exercise" (as defined in Section 11(c) below) for the Warrant
Shares specified in the Exercise Agreement. The Warrant Shares so purchased
shall be deemed to be issued to the holder hereof or such holder's designee, as
the record owner of such shares, as of the close of business on the date on
which this Warrant shall have been surrendered, the completed Exercise Agreement
shall have been deliv-ered, and payment shall have been made for such shares as
set forth above. Certifi-xxxxx for the Warrant Shares so purchased,
representing the aggregate number of shares specified in the Exercise Agreement,
shall be delivered to the holder hereof within a reasonable time, not exceeding
three (3) business days, after this Warrant shall have been so exercised. The
certificates so delivered shall be in such denominations as may be requested by
the holder hereof and shall be registered in the name of such holder or such
other name as shall be designated by such holder. If this Warrant shall have
been exercised only in part, then, unless this Warrant has expired, the Company
shall, at its expense, at the time of delivery of such certificates, deliver to
the holder a new Warrant representing the number of shares with respect to which
this Warrant shall not then have been exercised. In addition to all other
available remedies at law or in equity, if the Company fails to deliver
certificates for the Warrant Shares within three (3) business days after this
Warrant is exercised, then the Company shall pay to the holder in cash or, at
the option of the holder, in shares of Common Stock valued at the Exercise
Price, an amount (the "Default Amount") equal to 2% of the number of Warrant
Shares that the holder is entitled to multiplied by the Market Price for each
day that the Company fails to deliver certificates for the Warrant Shares. For
example, if the holder is entitled to 100,000 Warrant Shares and the Market
Price is $2.00, then the Company shall pay to the holder $4,000 for each day
that the Company fails to deliver certificates for the Warrant Shares. The
Default Amount shall be paid to the holder by the fifth day of the month
following the month in which it has accrued.
Notwithstanding anything in this Warrant to the contrary, in no event shall
the holder of this Warrant be entitled to exercise a number of Warrants (or
portions thereof) in excess of the number of Warrants (or portions thereof) upon
exercise of which the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock
beneficially owned by the holder and its affiliates (other than shares of Common
Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the
unexercised Warrants and the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other
securities of the Company (including the Debentures (as defined in the
Securities Purchase Agreement)) subject to a limitation on conversion or
exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein) and (ii) the number of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (or portions
thereof) with respect to which the determination described herein is being made,
would result in beneficial ownership by the holder and its affiliates of more
than 4.9% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. For purposes of the
immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in
accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, and Regulation 13D-G thereunder, except as otherwise provided in clause
(i) of the preceding sentence. The holder of this Warrant may waive the
limitations set forth herein by sixty-one (61) days written notice to the
Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the
limitation on exercise of this Warrant set forth herein may not be amended
without (i) the written consent of the holder hereof and the Company and (ii)
the approval of a majority of shareholders of the Company.
-Period of Exercise. This Warrant is exercisable at any time or from time to
--------------------
time on or after the date on which this Warrant is issued and delivered pursuant
-
to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement and before 5:00 p.m., Los
Angeles, California time on the seventh (7th) anniversary of the date of
issuance (the "Exercise Period").
-Certain Agreements of the Company. The Company hereby covenants and agrees as
----------------------------------
follows:
-Shares to be Fully Paid. All Warrant Shares will, upon issuance in accordance
------------------------
with the terms of this Warrant, be validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable
and free from all taxes, liens, and charges with respect to the issue thereof.
-Reservation of Shares. During the Exercise Period, the Company shall at all
-----------------------
times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of issuance upon exercise of
-
this Warrant, a suf-ficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the
exercise of this Warrant.
-Listing. The Company shall promptly secure the listing of the shares of Common
-------
Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant upon each national securities
exchange or automated quotation system, if any, upon which shares of Common
Stock are then listed (subject to official notice of issuance upon exercise of
this Warrant) and shall maintain, so long as any other shares of Common Stock
shall be so listed, such listing of all shares of Common Stock from time to time
issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant; and the Company shall so list on
each national securities exchange or automated quotation system, as the case may
be, and shall maintain such listing of, any other shares of capital stock of the
Company issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant if and so long as any shares
of the same class shall be listed on such national securities exchange or
automated quotation system.
-Certain Actions Prohibited. The Company will not, by amendment of its charter
---------------------------
or through any re-organi-zation, transfer of assets, consolidation, mer-ger,
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 by it hereunder, but will at all times in good faith
assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant and in the
taking of all such action as may reasonably be requested by the holder of this
Warrant in order to protect the exercise privilege of the holder of this Warrant
against dilu-tion or other impairment, consistent with the tenor and purpose of
this Warrant. Without limiting the general-ity of the foregoing, the Company
(i) will not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable
upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, and
(ii) will take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that
the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of
Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant.
-Successors and Assigns. This Warrant will be binding upon any entity
------------------------
succeeding to the Company by merger, consolidation, or acquisition of all or
--------
sub-stantially all the Company's assets.
--
-Antidilution Provisions. During the Exercise Period, the Exercise Price and
------------------------
the number of Warrant Shares shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as
-
provided in this Paragraph 4.
In the event that any adjustment of the Exercise Price as required herein
results in a fraction of a cent, such Exercise Price shall be rounded up to the
nearest cent.
-Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares upon Issuance of Common
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Stock. Except as otherwise provided in Paragraphs 4(c) and 4(e) hereof, if and
----
whenever on or after the date of issuance of this Warrant, the Company issues or
sells, or in accordance with Paragraph 4(b) hereof is deemed to have issued or
sold, any shares of Common Stock for no consideration or for a consideration per
share (before deduction of reasonable expenses or commissions or underwriting
discounts or allowances in connection therewith) less than the Market Price (as
hereinafter defined) on the date of issuance (a "Dilutive Issuance"), then
immediately upon the Dilutive Issuance, the Exercise Price will be reduced to a
price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior
to the Dilutive Issuance by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which is an amount
equal to the sum of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock actually
outstanding immediately prior to the Dilutive Issuance, plus (y) the quotient of
the aggregate consideration, calculated as set forth in Paragraph 4(b) hereof,
received by the Company upon such Dilutive Issuance divided by the Market Price
in effect immediately prior to the Dilutive Issuance, and (ii) the denominator
of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock Deemed Outstanding (as
defined below) immediately after the Dilutive Issuance.
-Effect on Exercise Price of Certain Events. For purposes of determining the
---------------------------------------------
adjusted Exercise Price under Paragraph 4(a) hereof, the following will be
-
applicable:
-
-ISSUANCE OF RIGHTS OR OPTIONS. If the Company in any manner issues or grants
-------------------------------
any warrants, rights or options, whether or not immediately exercisable, to
subscribe for or to purchase Common Stock or other securities convertible into
or exchangeable for Common Stock ("Convertible Securities") (such warrants,
rights and options to purchase Common Stock or Convertible Securities are
hereinafter referred to as "Options") and the price per share for which Common
Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such Options is less than the Market
Price on the date of issuance or grant of such Options, then the maximum total
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of all such Options
will, as of the date of the issuance or grant of such Options, be deemed to be
outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company for such price per
share. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the "price per share for which
Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such Options" is determined by
dividing (i) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as
consideration for the issuance or granting of all such Options, plus the minimum
aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company
upon the exercise of all such Options, plus, in the case of Convertible
Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options, the minimum aggregate
amount of additional consideration payable upon the conversion or exchange
thereof at the time such Convertible Securities first become convertible or
exchangeable, by (ii) the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon the exercise of all such Options (assuming full conversion of
Convertible Securities, if applicable). No further adjustment to the Exercise
Price will be made upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon the
exercise of such Options or upon the conversion or exchange of Convertible
Securities issuable upon exercise of such Options.
ISSUANCE OF CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES. If the Company in any manner issues or
-------------------------------------
sells any Convertible Securities, whether or not immediately convertible (other
----
than where the same are issuable upon the exercise of Options) and the price per
share for which Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion or exchange is
less than the Market Price on the date of issuance, then the maximum total
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or exchange of all
such Convertible Securities will, as of the date of the issuance of such
Convertible Securities, be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and
sold by the Company for such price per share. For the purposes of the preceding
sentence, the "price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon such
conversion or exchange" is determined by dividing (i) the total amount, if any,
received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issuance or sale
of all such Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of
additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the conversion or
exchange thereof at the time such Convertible Securities first become
convertible or exchangeable, by (ii) the maximum total number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible
Securities. No further adjustment to the Exercise Price will be made upon the
actual issuance of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of such
Convertible Securities.
CHANGE IN OPTION PRICE OR CONVERSION RATE. If there is a change at any time in
------------------------------------------
(i) the amount of additional consideration payable to the Company upon the
exercise of any Options; (ii) the amount of additional consideration, if any,
payable to the Company upon the conversion or exchange of any Convertible
Securities; or (iii) the rate at which any Convertible Securities are
convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock (other than under or by reason
of provisions designed to protect against dilution), the Exercise Price in
effect at the time of such change will be readjusted to the Exercise Price which
would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible
Securities still outstanding provided for such changed additional consideration
or changed conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted,
issued or sold.
TREATMENT OF EXPIRED OPTIONS AND UNEXERCISED CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES. If, in any
-------------------------------------------------------------------
case, the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of any
Option or upon conversion or exchange of any Convertible Securities is not, in
fact, issued and the rights to exercise such Option or to convert or exchange
such Convertible Securities shall have expired or terminated, the Exercise Price
then in effect will be readjusted to the Exercise Price which would have been in
effect at the time of such expiration or termination had such Option or
Convertible Securities, to the extent outstanding immediately prior to such
expiration or termination (other than in respect of the actual number of shares
of Common Stock issued upon exercise or conversion thereof), never been issued.
CALCULATION OF CONSIDERATION RECEIVED. If any Common Stock, Options or
----------------------------------------
Convertible Securities are issued, granted or sold for cash, the consideration
--------
received therefor for purposes of this Warrant will be the amount received by
the Company therefor, before deduction of reasonable commissions, underwriting
discounts or allowances or other reasonable expenses paid or incurred by the
Company in connection with such issuance, grant or sale. In case any Common
Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for a consideration
part or all of which shall be other than cash, the amount of the consideration
other than cash received by the Company will be the fair value of such
consideration, except where such consideration consists of securities, in which
case the amount of consideration received by the Company will be the Market
Price thereof as of the date of receipt. In case any Common Stock, Options or
Convertible Securities are issued in connection with any acquisition, merger or
consolidation in which the Company is the surviving corporation, the amount of
consideration therefor will be deemed to be the fair value of such portion of
the net assets and business of the non-surviving corporation as is attributable
to such Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, as the case may be.
The fair value of any consideration other than cash or securities will be
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.
EXCEPTIONS TO ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE. No adjustment to the Exercise Price
------------------------------------------
will be made (i) upon the exercise of any warrants, options or convertible
securities granted, issued and outstanding on the date of issuance of this
Warrant; (ii) upon the grant or exercise of any stock or options which may
hereafter be granted or exercised under any employee benefit plan, stock option
plan or restricted stock plan of the Company now existing or to be implemented
in the future, so long as the issuance of such stock or options is approved by a
majority of the independent members of the Board of Directors of the Company or
a majority of the members of a committee of independent directors established
for such purpose; (iii) upon the exercise of the Warrants; (iv) shares of Common
Stock to be issued pursuant to the Convertible Note Purchase Agreement, dated
December 12, 2000, by and among certain investors and the Company, (v) shares of
Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the Convertible Note Purchase Agreement,
dated July 26, 2001, by and among certain investors and the Company, (vi) shares
of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the Convertible Note Purchase Agreement
dated September 21, 2001, by and among certain investors and the Company, (vii)
shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the Convertible Note Purchase
Agreement, dated November 7, 2001, by and among certain investors and the
Company, (viii) shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the Agreement
and Release, dated March 1, 2001, by and among the Company, American Industries,
Inc. and various other parties thereto and (ix) shares of Common Stock to be
issued pursuant to the Second OEM Amendment, dated October 25, 2000, between the
Company and Artifex Software, Inc.
Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company at any time
-----------------------------------------------
subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization,
--------
reorganization, reclassification or otherwise) the shares of Common Stock
--------
acquirable hereunder into a greater number of shares, then, after the date of
------
record for effecting such subdivision, the Exercise Price in effect immediately
--
prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. If the Company at
any time combines (by reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization,
reclassification or otherwise) the shares of Common Stock acquirable hereunder
into a smaller number of shares, then, after the date of record for effecting
such combination, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such
combination will be proportionately increased.
-Adjustment in Number of Shares. Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price
----------------------------------
pursuant to the provisions of this Paragraph 4, the number of shares of Common
--
Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted by multiplying a
number equal to the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such
adjustment by the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the product so
obtained by the adjusted Exercise Price.
-Consolidation, Merger or Sale. In case of any consolidation of the Company
--------------------------------
with, or merger of the Company into any other corporation, or in case of any
--
sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company
--
other than in connection with a plan of complete liquidation of the Company,
--
then as a condition of such consolidation, merger or sale or conveyance,
--
adequate provision will be made whereby the holder of this Warrant will have the
--
right to acquire and receive upon exercise of this Warrant in lieu of the shares
of Common Stock immediately theretofore acquirable upon the exercise of this
Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or assets as may be issued or payable
with respect to or in exchange for the number of shares of Common Stock
immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant
had such consolidation, merger or sale or conveyance not taken place. In any
such case, the Company will make appropriate provision to insure that the
provisions of this Paragraph 4 hereof will thereafter be applicable as nearly as
may be in relation to any shares of stock or securities thereafter deliverable
upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company will not effect any
consolidation, merger or sale or conveyance unless prior to the consummation
thereof, the successor corporation (if other than the Company) assumes by
written instrument the obligations under this Paragraph 4 and the obligations to
deliver to the holder of this Warrant such shares of stock, securities or assets
as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the holder may be entitled to
acquire.
-Distribution of Assets. In case the Company shall declare or make any
------------------------
distribution of its assets (including cash) to holders of Common Stock as a
-------
partial liquidating dividend, by way of return of capital or otherwise, then,
---
after the date of record for determining stockholders entitled to such
-
distribution, but prior to the date of distribution, the holder of this Warrant
-
shall be entitled upon exercise of this Warrant for the purchase of any or all
of the shares of Common Stock subject hereto, to receive the amount of such
assets which would have been payable to the holder had such holder been the
holder of such shares of Common Stock on the record date for the determination
of stockholders entitled to such distribution.
-Notice of Adjustment. UPON THE OCCURRENCE OF ANY EVENT WHICH REQUIRES ANY
----------------------
ADJUSTMENT OF THE EXERCISE PRICE, then, and in each such case, the Company shall
---
give notice thereof to the holder of this Warrant, which notice shall state the
Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment and the increase or decrease in
the number of Warrant Shares purchasable at such price upon exercise, setting
forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which
such calculation is based. Such calculation shall be certified by the Chief
Financial Officer of the Company.
-Minimum Adjustment of Exercise Price. No adjustment of the Exercise Price
----------------------------------------
shall be made in an amount of less than 1% of the Exercise Price in effect at
---
the time such adjustment is otherwise required to be made, but any such lesser
-
adjustment shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time and together
with the next subsequent adjustment which, together with any adjustments so
carried forward, shall amount to not less than 1% of such Exercise Price.
-No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock are to be issued
----------------------
upon the exercise of this Warrant, but the Company shall pay a cash adjustment
-
in respect of any fractional share which would otherwise be issuable in an
amount equal to the same fraction of the Market Price of a share of Common Stock
on the date of such exercise.
-Other Notices. In case at any time:
--------------
the Company shall declare any dividend upon the Common Stock payable in shares
of stock of any class or make any other distribution (including dividends or
distributions payable in cash out of retained earnings) to the holders of the
Common Stock;
the Company shall offer for subscription pro rata to the holders of the Common
Stock any additional shares of stock of any class or other rights;
there shall be any capital reorganiza-tion of the Company, or reclassification
of the Common Stock, or consolidation or merger of the Company with or into, or
sale of all or substan-tially all its assets to, another corporation or entity;
or
there shall be a voluntary or involun-tary dissolution, liquidation or winding
up of the Company;
then, in each such case, the Company shall give to the holder of this Warrant
(a) notice of the date on which the books of the Company shall close or a record
shall be taken for determining the holders of Common Stock entitled to receive
any such divi-dend, distribution, or subscription rights or for determining the
holders of Common Stock entitled to vote in respect of any such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or
winding-up and (b) in the case of any such reorganization, reclassification,
consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, notice of
the date (or, if not then known, a reasonable approximation thereof by the
Company) when the same shall take place. Such notice shall also specify the
date on which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive such
dividend, distribution, or subscription rights or to exchange their Common Stock
for stock or other securities or property deliverable upon such reorganization,
re-classification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liqui-dation, or
winding-up, as the case may be. Such notice shall be given at least 30 days
prior to the record date or the date on which the Company's books are closed in
respect thereto. Failure to give any such notice or any defect therein shall
not affect the validity of the proceedings referred to in clauses (i), (ii),
(iii) and (iv) above.
Certain Events. If any event occurs of the type contemplated by the adjustment
---------------
provisions of this Paragraph 4 but not expressly provided for by such
provisions, the Company will give notice of such event as provided in Paragraph
4(g) hereof, and the Company's Board of Directors will make an appropriate
adjustment in the Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock
acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant so that the rights of the holder shall
be neither enhanced nor diminished by such event.
Certain Definitions.
--------------------
"COMMON STOCK DEEMED OUTSTANDING" shall mean the number of shares of Common
----------------------------------
Stock actually outstanding (not including shares of Common Stock held in the
---
treasury of the Company), plus (x) pursuant to Paragraph 4(b)(i) hereof, the
--
maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of
--
Options, as of the date of such issuance or grant of such Options, if any, and
--
(y) pursuant to Paragraph 4(b)(ii) hereof, the maximum total number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities, as
of the date of issuance of such Convertible Securities, if any.
"MARKET PRICE," as of any date, (i) means the average of the last reported sale
-------------
prices for the shares of Common Stock on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board
(the "OTC BB") for the five (5) Trading Days immediately preceding such date as
reported by Bloomberg, or (ii) if the OTC BB is not the principal trading market
for the shares of Common Stock, the average of the last reported sale prices on
the principal trading market for the Common Stock during the same period as
reported by Bloomberg, or (iii) if market value cannot be calculated as of such
date on any of the foregoing bases, the Market Price shall be the fair market
value as reasonably determined in good faith by (a) the Board of Directors of
the Company or, at the option of a majority-in-interest of the holders of the
outstanding Warrants by (b) an independent investment bank of nationally
recognized standing in the valuation of businesses similar to the business of
the corporation. The manner of determining the Market Price of the Common Stock
set forth in the foregoing definition shall apply with respect to any other
security in respect of which a determination as to market value must be made
hereunder.
"COMMON STOCK," for purposes of this Paragraph 4, includes the Common Stock, par
------------
value $0.005 per share, and any additional class of stock of the Company having
no preference as to dividends or distributions on liquidation, provided that the
shares purchasable pursuant to this Warrant shall include only shares of Common
Stock, par value $0.005 per share, in respect of which this Warrant is
exercisable, or shares resulting from any subdivision or combination of such
Common Stock, or in the case of any reorganization, reclassification,
consolidation, merger, or sale of the character referred to in Paragraph 4(e)
hereof, the stock or other securities or property provided for in such
Paragraph.
-Issue Tax. The issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares upon the exercise
----------
of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the holder of this Warrant or
such shares for any issuance tax or other costs in respect thereof, provided
that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in
respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any certificate
in a name other than the holder of this Warrant.
-No Rights or Liabilities as a Shareholder. This Warrant shall not entitle the
------------------------------------------
holder hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the
Company. No provision of this Warrant, in the absence of affirmative action by
the holder hereof to purchase Warrant Shares, and no mere enumeration herein of
the rights or privileges of the holder hereof, shall give rise to any liability
of such holder for the Exercise Price or as a shareholder of the Company,
whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the
Company.
-Transfer, Exchange, and Replacement of Warrant.
---------------------------------------------------
-Restriction on Transfer. This Warrant and the rights granted to the holder
-------------------------
hereof are transferable to any affiliate of the holder, in whole or in part,
--
upon surrender of this Warrant, together with a properly executed assignment in
--
the form attached hereto, at the office or agency of the Company referred to in
Paragraph 7(e) below, pro-vided, however, that any transfer or assignment shall
be subject to the conditions set forth in Paragraph 7(f) hereof and to the
applicable provisions of the Securities Purchase Agreement. Until due
presentment for registration of transfer on the books of the Company, the
Company may treat the registered holder hereof as the owner and holder hereof
for all purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the
con-trary. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the
registration rights described in Paragraph 8 are assignable only in accordance
with the provisions of that certain Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of
January 22, 2002, by and among the Company and the other signatories thereto
(the "Registration Rights Agreement").
-Warrant Exchangeable for Different Denomina-tions. This Warrant is
-----------------------------------------------------
exchange-able, upon the surrender hereof by the holder hereof at the office or
----------
agency of the Company referred to in Paragraph 7(e) below, for new Warrants of
like tenor representing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of
shares of Common Stock which may be purchased hereunder, each of such new

-Miscellaneous.
-------------
-Amendments. This Warrant and any provision hereof may only be amended by an
----------
instrument in writing signed by the Company and the holder hereof.
-
-Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings of the several paragraphs of
---------------------
this Warrant are in-serted for purposes of reference only, and shall not affect
-
the meaning or construction of any of the provisions hereof.
-Cashless Exercise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
------------------
Warrant, on or after ninety (90) days following the date on which this Warrant
is issued, if the resale of the Warrant Shares by the holder is not then
registered pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities
Act, this Warrant may be exercised by presentation and surrender of this Warrant
to the Company at its principal executive offices with a written notice of the
holder's intention to effect a cashless exercise, including a calculation of the
number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon such exercise in accordance
with the terms hereof (a "Cashless Exercise"). In the event of a Cashless
Exercise, in lieu of paying the Exercise Price in cash, the holder shall
surrender this Warrant for that number of shares of Common Stock determined by
multiplying the number of Warrant Shares to which it would otherwise be entitled
by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the difference between the then
current Market Price per share of the Common Stock and the Exercise Price, and
the denominator of which shall be the then current Market Price per share of
Common Stock. For example, if the holder is exercising 100,000 Warrants with a
per Warrant exercise price of $0.75 per share through a cashless exercise when
the Common Stock's current Market Price per share is $2.00 per share, then upon
such Cashless Exercise the holder will receive 62,500 shares of Common Stock.
Remedies. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations
--------
hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the holder, by vitiating the intent and
-----
purpose of the transaction contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the Company
acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this
Warrant will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened
breach by the Company of the provisions of this Warrant, that the holder shall
be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies at law or in equity,
and in addition to the remedies set forth herein, to an injunction or
injunctions restraining, preventing or curing any breach of this Warrant and to
enforce specifically the terms and provisions thereof, without the necessity of
showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Warrant to be signed
by its duly authorized officer.
