COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
(Void after December 3, 2002)
WAVETECH International Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Company"), for
value received, hereby certifies that ComHoldings Ventures, LLC, a Delaware
Limited Liability Corporation, with an address at X.X. Xxx 0000, Xxxxxxxxxxxx,
XXXX 00000, or its registered assigns (jointly or individually, the "Registered
Holder"), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from
the Company, at any time or from time to time on or after the date of issuance
and on or before December 3, 2002 at not later than 5:00 p.m. (Atlanta, Georgia
time), up to thirty thousand (30,000) shares of Common Stock (post-split), $.00l
par value per share, of the Company, at a purchase price of $4.5625 per share.
The shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant, and the purchase price per
share, each as adjusted from time to time pursuant to the provisions of this
Warrant, are hereinafter referred to as the "Warrant Shares" and the "Purchase
Price," respectively.
1. EXERCISE.
(a) This Warrant may be exercised by the Registered Holder, in whole
or in part, by surrendering this Warrant, with the purchase form appended hereto
as EXHIBIT I duly executed by such Registered Holder or by such Registered
Holder's duly authorized attorney, at the principal office of the Company, or at
such other office or agency as the Company may designate, accompanied by payment
in full, in lawful money of the United States, of the Purchase Price payable in
respect of the number of Warrant Shares purchased upon such exercise.
(b) Each exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been
effected immediately prior to the close of business on the day (the "Exercise
Date") on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered to the Company as
provided in subsection 1(a) above. At such time, the person or persons in whose
name or names any certificates for Warrant Shares shall be issuable upon such
exercise as provided in subsection 1(c) below shall be deemed to have become the
holder or holders of record of the Warrant Shares represented by such
certificates.
(c) As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in full
or in part, within ten (10) days thereafter, the Company, at its expense, will
cause to be issued in the name of, and delivered to, the Registered Holder, or
as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes)
may direct:
(i) a certificate or certificates for the number of full Warrant
Shares to which such Registered Holder shall be entitled upon such exercise
plus, in lieu of any fractional share to which such Registered Holder would
otherwise be entitled, cash in an amount determined pursuant to Section 3
hereof; and
(ii) in case such exercise is in part only, a new warrant or
warrants (dated the date hereof) of like tenor, calling in the aggregate on the
face or faces thereof for the number of Warrant Shares equal (without giving
effect to any adjustment therein) to the number of such shares called for on the
face of this Warrant minus the sum of the number of such shares purchased by the
Registered Holder upon such exercise.
2. ADJUSTMENTS. The Purchase Price shall be subject to adjustment from time
to time pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.
(a) RECAPITALIZATIONS. If outstanding shares of the Company's Common
Stock shall be subdivided into a greater number of shares or a dividend in
Common Stock shall be paid in respect of Common Stock, the Purchase Price in
effect immediately prior to such subdivision or at the record date of such
dividend shall simultaneously with the effectiveness of such subdivision or
immediately after the record date of such dividend be proportionately reduced.
If outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be combined into a smaller number of
shares, the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such combination
shall, simultaneously with the effectiveness of such combination, be
proportionately increased.
(b) MERGERS, ETC. If there shall occur any capital reorganization or
reclassification of the Company's Common Stock (other than a subdivision or
combination as provided for in subsection 2(a) above), or any consolidation or
merger of the Company with or into another corporation, or a transfer of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company, then, as part of any such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale, as the case may
be, lawful provision shall be made so that the Registered Holder of this Warrant
shall have the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise hereof the kind and
amount of shares of stock or other securities or property which such Registered
Holder would have been entitled to receive if, immediately prior to any such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale, as the case may
be, such Registered Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock which
2
were then purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant. In any such case,
appropriate adjustment (as reasonably determined in good faith by the Board of
Directors of the Company) shall be made in the application of the provisions set
forth herein with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the
Registered Holder of this Warrant, such that the provisions set forth in this
Section 2 (including provisions with respect to adjustment of the Purchase
Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as is reasonably practicable,
in relation to any shares of stock or other securities or property thereafter
deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant.
(c) ADJUSTMENT IN NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES. When any adjustment is
required to be made in the Purchase Price, the number of Warrant Shares
purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be changed to the number
determined by dividing (i) an amount equal to the number of shares issuable upon
the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by
the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment, by (ii) the
Purchase Price in effect immediately after such adjustment.
(d) CERTIFICATE OF ADJUSTMENT. When any adjustment is required to be
made pursuant to this Section 2, the Company shall promptly mail to the
Registered Holder a certificate setting forth the Purchase Price after such
adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such
adjustment. Such certificate shall also set forth the kind and amount of stock
or other securities or property into which this Warrant shall be exercisable
following such adjustment.
3. FRACTIONAL SHARES. The Company shall not be required upon the exercise
of this Warrant to issue any fractional shares, but shall make an adjustment
therefor in cash on the basis of the Fair Market Value per share of Common
Stock. As issued herein "Fair Market Value" shall mean: (i) if the Common Stock
is listed on a nationally recognized securities exchange or over-the-counter
market, the last reported sale price or bid price, respectively, per share of
Common Stock on the Exercise Date, or the next preceding business day if no such
price is reported on the Exercise Date, or (ii) if the Common Stock is not
listed on a nationally recognized Securities exchange or over-the-counter
market, as determined by the Board of Directors.
4. REQUIREMENTS FOR TRANSFER.
(a) The Company or its agent will maintain a register containing the
names and addresses of the Registered Holders of this Warrant. Any Registered
Holder may change its or his address as shown on the warrant register by written
notice to the Company requesting such change.
(b) This Warrant and the Warrant Shares shall not be sold or
transferred unless either (i) they first shall have been registered under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), or (ii) the Company first shall
have been furnished with an opinion of legal counsel, reasonably satisfactory to
the Company, to the effect that such sale or transfer is exempt from the
registration requirements of the Act.
3
(c) Each certificate representing Warrant Shares shall bear a legend
substantially in the following form:
"The securities represented by this certificate have
not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, and may not be offered, sold or otherwise
transferred, pledged or hypothecated unless and until
such securities are registered under such Act or an
opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company is
obtained to the effect that such registration is not
required."
The foregoing legend shall be removed from the certificates representing any
Warrant Shares, at the request of the holder thereof, at such time as there is
an effective registration statement relating to the warrant shares or as they
become eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the Act.
(d) The Company is required to prepare and file a registration
statement under the Act relating to the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 11 of
that certain Subscription Agreement dated as of ____________ between the Company
and the Registered Holder which terms are incorporated and made a part hereof.
5. NO IMPAIRMENT. The Company will not, by amendment of its charter or
through reorganization, consolidation, merger, dissolution, sale of assets or
any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance
of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist
in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as
may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the holder of
this Warrant against impairment.
6. NOTICES OF RECORD DATE, ETC. In case:
(a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock
(or other stock or securities at the time deliverable upon the exercise of this
Warrant) for the purpose of entitling or enabling them to receive any dividend
or other distribution, or to receive any right to subscribe for or purchase any
shares of stock of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other
right; or
(b) of any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification
of the capital stock of the Company, any consolidation or merger of the Company
with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which
the Company is the surviving entity), or any transfer of all or substantially
all of the assets of the Company; or
(c) of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or
winding-up of the Company,
then, and in each such case, the Company will mail or cause to be mailed to the
Registered Holder of this Warrant a notice specifying, as the case may be, (i)
the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend,
4
distribution or right, and stating the amount and character of such dividend,
distribution or right, or (ii) the effective date on which such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or
winding-up is to take place, and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which
the holders of record of Common Stock (or such other stock or securities at the
time deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall be entitled to
exchange their shares of Common Stock (or such other stock or securities) for
securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or
winding-up. Such notice shall be mailed at least ten (10) days prior to the
record date or effective date for the event specified in such notice.
7. RESERVATION OF STOCK. The Company will at all times reserve and keep
available, solely for issuance and delivery upon the exercise of this Warrant,
such number of Warrant Shares and other stock, securities and property, as from
time to time shall be issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant.

satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of
this Warrant and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) upon delivery of an
indemnity agreement (with surety if reasonably required) in an amount reasonably
satisfactory to the Company, or (in the case of mutilation) upon surrender and
cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will issue, in lieu thereof, a new
Warrant of like tenor.
9. MAILING OF NOTICES, ETC. All notices and other communications from the
Company to the Registered Holder of this Warrant shall be mailed by first-class

virtue hereof as a stockholder of the Company.
