SECTION
4. Representations
and Warranties.
To
induce the Lenders to enter into this Amendment, Holdings, the Company and
each
other Loan Party hereby represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent
and
the Lenders that all representations and warranties made by each such Person
in
Article VI of the Credit Agreement and in the other Loan Documents are
true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date hereof, after
giving effect to this Amendment. For the purposes of this Section 4, (i) each
reference in Article VI of the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement,” and
the words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereunder,” or words of like import in such
Article, shall mean and be a reference to the Credit Agreement as amended by
this Amendment, and each reference in such Article to “the Loan Documents” shall
mean and be a reference to the Loan Documents as amended as contemplated hereby,
(ii)
Section 6.11 of the Credit Agreement shall be deemed instead to refer to
the last day of the most recent fiscal quarter and fiscal year for which
financial statements have then been delivered, and (iii) any representations
and
warranties which relate solely to an earlier date shall not be deemed confirmed
and restated as of the date hereof (provided that such representations
and warranties shall be true and correct as of such earlier date).
SECTION
5. Reaffirmation of Liens and Guarantees.
(a)
Each Loan Party hereby reaffirms that the Liens
granted to the Administrative Agent, for itself and on behalf of and for the
ratable benefit of the other Secured Parties, under the Security Agreement
and
the other Collateral Documents remain in full force and
effect and constitute, and shall constitute on and after the Effective Date,
valid and perfected Liens on the Collateral (subject only to Permitted Liens)
to
secure the Secured Obligations. As used herein, “Secured Parties” and “Secured
Obligations” shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Security
Agreement, and, for the avoidance of doubt, the term “Secured Obligations” as
used in this Amendment, the Credit Agreement as amended hereby and the other
Loan Documents includes, without limitation, all Secured Obligations arising
under or in connection with this Amendment and the Credit Agreement as amended
by this Amendment.
40
(b)
Each
of the undersigned Guarantors, in its capacity as a Guarantor, does hereby
consent to this Amendment and to the documents and agreements referred to
herein, and nothing herein shall in any way limit any of the terms or provisions
of the Guaranty of such Guarantor or the Collateral Documents executed by such
Guarantor or any other Loan Document executed by such Guarantor (as the same
may
be amended from time to time), all of which are hereby ratified and affirmed
in
all respects.
SECTION
6. Amendment Fee. Holdings shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the
benefit of the Lenders approving this Amendment, an amendment fee in the amount
of (x)
0.50%
times (y) the (1) Revolving Commitment plus (2) the outstanding

(the “Amendment Fee”). Such Amendment Fee shall be fully earned on the
Effective Date and paid only to those Lenders that approve this Amendment on
or
prior to 5:00 p.m. California time on September 29, 2008.
SECTION
7. Release.
(a)
Holdings and each other Loan Party hereby absolutely and unconditionally waives,
releases, remises and forever discharges the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders, and any and all of their respective participants, members, related
funds, parent corporations, subsidiary corporations, affiliated corporations,
insurers, indemnitors, successors and assigns thereof, together with all of
the
present and former directors, officers, agents and employees of any of the
foregoing (each a “Released Party”), from any and all claims, suits,
investigations, proceedings, demands, obligations, liabilities, damages, losses,
costs, expenses, or causes of action of any kind, nature or description, whether
based in law, equity, contract, tort, implied or express warranty, strict
liability, criminal or civil statute, common law, or under any state or federal
law or otherwise, of any kind or character, known or unknown, past or present,
liquidated or unliquidated, suspected or unsuspected, matured or unmatured,
known or unknown, in each case, which Holdings or such other Loan Party has
had,
now has, or has made claim to have against any such Released Party for or by
reason of any act, omission, matter, cause or thing whatsoever which relates,
directly or indirectly to the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document,
provided, however, that the foregoing shall not effect or
otherwise constitute a release of any duties or obligations set forth in this
Amendment, the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents. It is the intention
of Holdings and each other Loan Party in providing this release that the same
shall be effective as a bar to each and every claim, demand and cause of action
specified, and in furtherance of this intention it waives and relinquishes
all
rights and benefits under Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of
California (or any comparable provision of any other applicable law), which
provides:
41
“A
GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH A CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR
SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF
KNOWN BY HIM, MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.”
Holdings
and each other Loan Party acknowledges that it may hereafter discover facts
different from or in addition to those now known or believed to be true with
respect to such claims, demands, or causes of action and agrees that this
instrument shall be and remain effective in all respects notwithstanding any
such differences or additional facts. Holdings and each other Loan Party
understands, acknowledges and agrees that the release set forth above may be
pleaded as a full and complete defense and may be used as a basis for an
injunction against any action, suit or other proceeding which may be instituted,
prosecuted or attempted in breach of the provisions of such release.
(b)
Holdings and each other Loan Party, on behalf of itself and its successors,
assigns, and other legal representatives, hereby absolutely, unconditionally
and
irrevocably, covenants and agrees with and in favor of each Released Party
above
that it will not xxx (at law, in equity, in any regulatory proceeding or
otherwise) any Released Party on the basis of any claim released, remised and
discharged by such Person pursuant to the above release. Holdings and each
other
Loan Party further agrees that it shall not dispute the validity or
enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or
any
of its obligations thereunder, or the validity, priority, enforceability or
the
extent of Administrative Agent’s Lien on any item of Collateral under the Credit
Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If Holdings or any other Loan Party
or
any of its successors, assigns or other legal representations violates the
foregoing covenant, such Person, for itself and its successors, assigns and
legal representatives, agrees to pay, in addition to such other damages as
any
Released Party may sustain as a result of such violation, all reasonable
attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by such Released Party as a result of such
violation.
SECTION
8. Miscellaneous.
(a)
Notice. The Administrative Agent shall notify Holdings, the Company and
the Lenders of the occurrence of the Effective Date and promptly thereafter
distribute to Holdings, the Company and the Lenders copies of all documents
delivered under Section 3 of this Amendment.
(b)
Certain Consents. For purposes of determining compliance with the
conditions specified in Section 3 above, each Lender that has executed
this Amendment shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted,
or to
be satisfied with, each document or other matter either sent, or made available
for inspection, by the Administrative Agent to such Lender for consent,
approval, acceptance or satisfaction, or required thereunder to be consented
to
or approved by or acceptable or reasonably satisfactory to such Lender.
(c)
Credit
Agreement Otherwise Not Affected.
Except
as expressly amended or waived as set forth in Section 2 above, the Credit
Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall remain unchanged and in full force
and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects. The Lenders’
and the Administrative Agent’s execution and delivery of, or acceptance
of,
this
Amendment and any other documents and instruments in connection herewith
(collectively, the “Amendment Documents”) shall not be deemed to create a
course of dealing or otherwise create any express or implied duty by any of
them
to provide any other or further amendments, consents or waivers in the future.
42
(d)
No
Reliance. Each of Holdings, the Company and each other Guarantor hereby
acknowledges and confirms to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that
it is
executing this Amendment and the other Amendment Documents on the basis of
its
own investigation and for its own reasons without reliance upon any agreement,
representation, understanding or communication by or on behalf of any other
Person.
(e)
Costs
and Expenses.
Holdings agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent on demand the reasonable
out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent, and the reasonable
fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent, in connection
with the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Amendment
and
any other documents to be delivered in connection herewith.
(f)
Binding
Effect.
This
Amendment shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable
by
Holdings, the Company and each other Guarantor, the Administrative Agent and
each Lender and their respective successors and assigns.
(g)
Governing
Law.
THIS
AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF
THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA.
(h)
Complete
Agreement; Amendments.
This
Amendment, together with the other Amendment Documents and the other Loan
Documents, contains the entire and exclusive agreement of the parties hereto
and
thereto with reference to the matters discussed herein and therein. This
Amendment supersedes all prior commitments, drafts, communications, discussion
and understandings, oral or written, with respect thereto. This Amendment may
not be modified, amended or otherwise altered except in accordance with the
terms of Section 11.01 of the Credit Agreement.
(i)
Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Amendment shall
be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under all applicable
laws and regulations. If, however, any provision of this Amendment shall be
prohibited by or invalid under any such law or regulation in any jurisdiction,
it shall, as to such jurisdiction, be deemed modified to conform to the minimum
requirements of such law or regulation, or, if for any reason it is not deemed
so modified, it shall be ineffective and invalid only to the extent of such
prohibition or invalidity without affecting the remaining provisions of this
Amendment, or the validity or effectiveness of such provision in any other
jurisdiction.
(j)
Counterparts.
This
Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties
hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed
to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute but one
and
the same instrument.
(k)
Loan Documents. This Amendment and the other Amendment Documents shall
constitute Loan Documents.

Building
Materials Holding Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”),
for

or its
registered assigns (the “Registered
Holder”),
is
entitled, subject to the terms and conditions set forth below, to purchase
from
the Company, at any time or from time to time on or before 5:00 p.m. (New
York
City time) on [____________],
2015
(the “Exercise
Period”),
[___________]
shares
of Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share, of the Company (“Common
Stock”),
at a
purchase price of $[____]2 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. This Warrant is one of a series of Warrants issued by the
Company
on the date hereof (collectively, the “Company
Warrants”).
1.
Total
number of shares underlying all warrants,
collectively, to equal 8.75% of BMHC’s issued and outstanding common stock, on a
fully-diluted basis, as of the closing date.
2.
Exercise
price to equal the closing price on the
NYSE on the closing date.
1. Exercise.
(a) Exercise
for Cash.
The
Registered Holder may, at its option, elect to exercise this Warrant, in
whole
or in part and at any time or from time to time during the Exercise Period,
by
surrendering the purchase form appended hereto as Exhibit I
duly
executed by or on behalf of the Registered Holder, 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. A facsimile or electronic PDF signature of the Registered
Holder
on the purchase form shall be sufficient for purposes of exercising this
Warrant, provided that the Company receives the Registered Holder’s original
signature with three (3) business days thereafter.
(b) Cashless
Exercise.
(i) At
any
time during the Exercise Period when the resale of the Warrant Shares by
the
Registered Holder is not registered pursuant to an effective registration
statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities
Act”),
the
Registered Holder may, at its option, elect to exercise this Warrant, in
whole
or in part, on a cashless basis, by surrendering this Warrant, with the
purchase
form appended hereto as Exhibit
I
duly
executed by or on behalf of the Registered Holder, at the principal office
of
the Company, or at such other office or agency as the Company may designate
and
canceling a portion of this Warrant in payment of the Purchase Price payable
in
respect of the number of Warrant Shares purchased upon such exercise. In
the
event of an exercise pursuant to this subsection 1(b), the number of Warrant
Shares issued to the Registered Holder shall be determined according to
the
following formula:
X
=
Y(A-B)
A
Where: | X = | the number of Warrant Shares that shall be issued to the Registered Holder; | |
Y = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is being exercised (which shall include both the number of Warrant Shares issued to the Registered Holder and the number of Warrant Shares subject to the portion of the Warrant being cancelled in payment of the Purchase Price); | ||
A = | the Fair Market Value (as defined below) of one share of Common Stock, as of the date prior to the Exercise Date; and | ||
B = | the Purchase Price then in effect. |
2
(ii) “Fair
Market Value”
means,
for any security as of any date, the closing sale price for such security
on the
New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”),
as
reported by Bloomberg, or, if the NYSE begins to operate on an extended
hours
basis and does not designate the closing sale price then the last sale
price of
such security prior to 4:00:00 p.m., New York City time, as reported by
Bloomberg, or, if the NYSE is not the principal stock exchange for such
security, the last sale 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 the foregoing do not apply, the last sale price of
such
security in an over-the-counter market on the electronic bulletin board
for such
security as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no last sale price is reported
for
such security by Bloomberg, the average of the ask prices of any market
makers
for such security as reported in the “pink sheets” by Pink Sheets LLC (formerly
the National Quotation Bureau, Inc.). If the Fair Market Value cannot be
calculated for a security on a particular date on any of the foregoing
bases,
the Fair Market Value of such security on such date shall be the fair market
value as mutually determined by the Company and the Registered Holder.
If the
Company and the Registered Holder are unable to agree upon the Fair Market
Value
of such security, then such dispute shall be resolved pursuant to Section
13
hereof. All such determinations shall be appropriately adjusted for any
stock
dividend, stock split, stock combination or other similar transaction during
the
applicable calculation period.
(c) Exercise
Date.
Each
exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been effected immediately
prior
to the close of business on the day on which the applicable purchase form
shall
have been surrendered to the Company as provided in subsection 1(a) or
1(b)
above (the “Exercise
Date”).
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(d) below shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record
of the
Warrant Shares represented by such certificates.
(d) Issuance
of Certificates.
As soon
as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in whole or in part,
and in
any event within five (5) business days thereafter, the Company, at its
expense,
will cause to be issued in the name of, and delivered to, the Registered
Holder,
or as the Registered Holder (upon payment by the Registered Holder of any
applicable transfer taxes) may direct:
(i) a
certificate or certificates for the number of full Warrant Shares to which
the
Registered Holder shall be entitled upon such exercise plus, in lieu of
any
fractional share to which the Registered Holder would otherwise be entitled,
cash in an amount determined pursuant to Section 3 hereof; provided
that in
the event the Company's transfer agent is participating in The Depository
Trust
Company (“DTC”)
Fast
Automated Securities Transfer Program, upon the request of the Registered
Holder
in connection with the Registered Holder's sale of such Warrant Shares
pursuant
to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or an exemption
from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, the Company shall
credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Registered
Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Registered Holder's
or its
designee's balance account with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent
Commission system; 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
number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant was so exercised (which,
in the
case of an exercise pursuant to subsection 1(b), shall include both the
number
of Warrant Shares issued to the Registered Holder pursuant to such partial
exercise and the number of Warrant Shares subject to the portion of the
Warrant
being cancelled in payment of the Purchase Price).
3
(e)
Beneficial
Ownership.
The
Company shall not effect the exercise of this Warrant, and the Registered
Holder
shall not have the right to exercise this Warrant, to the extent that after
giving effect to such exercise, the Registered Holder (together with the
Registered Holder's affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99%
(the
“Maximum
Percentage”)
of the
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such
exercise. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of
shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Registered Holder and
its
affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable
upon
exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the determination of such
sentence is being made, but shall exclude shares of Common Stock which
would be
issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, unexercised portion of this
Warrant
beneficially owned by the Registered Holder and its affiliates and (ii)
exercise
or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities
of the Company beneficially owned by the Registered Holder and its affiliates
(including, without limitation, any convertible notes or convertible preferred
stock or warrants) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous
to the limitation contained herein. Except as set forth in the preceding
sentence, for purposes of this paragraph, beneficial ownership shall be
calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange
Act of
1934, as amended. For purposes of this Warrant, in determining the number
of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Registered Holder may rely on
the
number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (1) the Company's
most recent Form 10-K, Form 10-Q, Current Report on Form 8-K or other public
filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as the case may be,
(2) a
more recent public announcement by the Company or (3) any other notice
by the
Company or the Company's transfer agent setting forth the number of shares
of
Common Stock outstanding. For any reason at any time, upon the written or
oral request of the Registered Holder, the Company shall within two business
days confirm orally and in writing to the Registered Holder the number
of shares
of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding
shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion
or exercise of securities of the Company, including the Company Warrants,
by the
Registered Holder and its affiliates since the date as of which such number
of
outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. By written notice to the
Company, the Registered Holder may from time to time increase or decrease
the
Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% specified
in
such notice; provided that (i) any such increase will not be effective
until the
sixty-first (61st)
day
after such notice is delivered to the Company, and (ii) any such increase
or
decrease will apply only to the Registered Holder and not to any other
holder of
Company Warrants.

2. Adjustments.
(a) Adjustment
for Stock Splits and Combinations.
If the
Company shall at any time or from time to time after the date on which
this
Warrant was first issued (or, if this Warrant was issued upon partial exercise
of, or in replacement of, another warrant of like tenor, then the date
on which
such original warrant was first issued) (the “Original
Issue Date”)
effect
a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock, the Purchase Price then
in effect
immediately before that subdivision shall be proportionately decreased.
If the
Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue
Date
combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Purchase Price then
in
effect immediately before the combination shall be proportionately increased.
Any adjustment under this paragraph shall become effective at the close
of
business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes
effective.
(b) Adjustment
for Certain Dividends and Distributions.
In the
event the Company at any time, or from time to time after the Original
Issue
Date shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of
holders
of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable
in
additional shares of Common Stock, then and in each such event the Purchase
Price then in effect immediately before such event shall be decreased as
of the
time of such issuance or, in the event such a record date shall have been
fixed,
as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Purchase
Price then in effect by a fraction:
(1) the
numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock
issued
and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close
of
business on such record date, and
(2) the
denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock
issued
and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close
of
business on such record date plus the total number of shares of Common
Stock
issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution; provided,
however,
that if
such record date shall have been fixed and such dividend is not fully paid
or if
such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefore, the Purchase
Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such
record
date and thereafter the Purchase Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this
paragraph as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions;
and provided
further
that in
no event shall the Purchase Price be reduced pursuant to this Section 2(b)(2)
below the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Original Issue
Date.
(c) Adjustments
for Other Dividends and Distributions.
In the
event the Company at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue
Date
shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders
of
Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable
in
securities of the Company (other than shares of Common Stock) or in cash
or
other property (other than regular cash dividends paid out of earnings
or earned
surplus, determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles), then and in each such event provision shall be made so that
the
Registered Holder shall receive upon exercise hereof, in addition to the
number
of shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder, the kind and amount of securities
of the Company, cash or other property which the Registered Holder would
have
been entitled to receive had this Warrant been exercised on the date of
such
event and had the Registered Holder thereafter, during the period from
the date
of such event to and including the Exercise Date, retained any such securities
receivable during such period, giving application to all adjustments called
for
during such period under this Section 2 with respect to the rights of the
Registered Holder.
5
(d) Adjustment
for Reorganization.
(i) If
there
shall occur any reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification,
consolidation or merger involving the Company in which the Common Stock
is
converted into or exchanged for securities, cash or other property
(collectively, a “Reorganization”),
then,
following such Reorganization, the Registered Holder shall receive upon
exercise
hereof the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property which
the
Registered Holder would have been entitled to receive pursuant to such
Reorganization if such exercise had taken place immediately prior to such
Reorganization.
(ii)
The
provisions of this paragraph (d) shall similarly apply to subsequent
transactions analogous to a Reorganization. In any such case, appropriate
adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Board) shall be made in
the
application of the provisions set forth herein with respect to the rights
and
interests thereafter of the Registered Holder, to the end that the provisions
set forth in this Section 2 (including provisions with respect to changes
in and
other adjustments of the Purchase Price) shall thereafter be applicable,
as
nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any securities, cash or other
property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant.
(e) Adjustment
for Certain Subsequent Offerings.
(i) In
the
event the Company, at any time after the Original Issue Date, shall issue
shares
of Additional Stock (as defined below) for consideration per share less
than the
Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance, then the Purchase
Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance shall be adjusted in
accordance with the following formula:
C
|
|||
AP
=
|
P
x
|
O
+
|
P
|
A
|
where:
AP
= the
adjusted Purchase Price.
P
= the
then current Purchase Price.
O
= the
number of shares outstanding (on a fully-diluted basis, assuming the full
conversion, exercise or exchange of all convertible securities then outstanding)
immediately prior to the issuance of such additional shares.
C
= the
aggregate consideration received for the issuance of such additional shares.
A
= the
number of shares outstanding (on a fully-diluted basis, assuming the full
conversion, exercise or exchange of all Convertible Securities then outstanding)
immediately after the issuance of such additional shares.
6
(ii) As
used
in this Section 2(e), “Additional
Stock”
shall
mean any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company or deemed to be issued
pursuant to Section 2(e)(iii) after the Original Issue Date, except shares
of
Common Stock issued (A) by reason of a stock split, combination, dividend,
or
other distribution or issuance of shares of Common Stock that is covered
by
Sections 2(a), 2(b), 2(c) or 2(d); (B) to employees or directors of, or
consultants or advisors to, the Company or any of its subsidiaries pursuant
to a
plan, agreement or arrangement approved by the Board of Directors of the
Company; (C) upon exercise of the Company Warrants or any other warrants
or
convertible securities issued by the Company and outstanding as of the
Original
Issue Date or issued pursuant to clauses (A), (B) or (D) through (G) herein;
(D)
to banks, equipment lessors or other financial institutions in connection
with
loans or other extensions of credit made to the Company; (E) to suppliers
or
third party service providers in connection with the provision of goods
or
services (the primary purpose of which is not to raise equity capital);
(F) in
connection with sponsored research, collaborations, technology license,
development, marketing or other similar agreements or mergers, acquisitions
or
strategic partnerships (the primary purpose of which is not to raise equity
capital); or (G) upon exercise of any options, warrants or other rights
assumed
by the Company in connection with a merger or other acquisition.
(iii) For
the
purpose of the adjustment required under this Section 2(e), if the Company
issues or sells (A) stock or other securities (including, without limitation,
warrants and options) convertible into, or exercisable in exchange for,
shares
of Additional Stock (such convertible stock or securities being herein
referred
to as “Convertible
Securities”)
or (B)
rights or options for the purchase of shares of Additional Stock or Convertible
Securities and if the Effective Price (as defined below) of such shares
of
Additional Stock is less than the Purchase Price in each case the Company
shall
be deemed to have issued at the time of the issuance of such rights or
options
or Convertible Securities the maximum number of shares of Additional Stock
issuable upon exercise or conversion thereof and to have received as
consideration for the issuance of such shares an amount equal to the total
amount of the consideration, if any, received by the Company for the issuance
of
such rights or options or Convertible Securities, plus, in the case of
such
rights or options, the minimum amounts of consideration, if any, payable
to the
Company upon the exercise of such rights or options, plus, in the case
of
Convertible Securities, the minimum amounts of consideration, if any, payable
to
the Company (other than by cancellation of liabilities or obligations evidenced
by such Convertible Securities) upon the conversion thereof; provided that
if in
the case of Convertible Securities the minimum amounts of such consideration
cannot be ascertained, but are a function of antidilution or similar protective
clauses, the Company shall be deemed to have received the minimum amounts
of
consideration without reference to such clauses; provided further that
if the
minimum amount of consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise
or
conversion of rights, options or Convertible Securities is reduced over
time or
on the occurrence or non-occurrence of specified events other than by reason
of
antidilution adjustments, the Effective Price shall be recalculated using
the
figure to which such minimum amount of consideration is reduced; provided
further that if the minimum amount of consideration payable to the Company
upon
the exercise or conversion of such rights, options or Convertible Securities
is
subsequently increased, the Effective Price shall be again recalculated
using
the increased minimum amount of consideration payable to the Company upon
the
exercise or conversion of such rights, options or Convertible Securities.
No
further adjustment of the Purchase Price, as adjusted upon the issuance
of such
rights, options or Convertible Securities, shall be made as a result of
the
actual issuance of shares of Additional Stock on the exercise of any such
rights
or options or the conversion of any such Convertible Securities. If any
such
rights or options or the conversion privilege represented by any such
Convertible Securities shall expire without having been exercised, the
Purchase
Price as adjusted upon the issuance of such rights, options or Convertible
Securities shall be readjusted to the Purchase Price which would have been
in
effect had an adjustment been made on the basis that the only shares of
Additional Stock so issued were the shares of Additional Stock, if any,
actually
issued or sold on the exercise of such rights or options or rights of conversion
of such Convertible Securities, and such shares of Additional Stock, if
any,
were issued or sold for the consideration actually received by the Company
upon
such exercise, plus the consideration, if any, actually received by the
Company
for the granting of all such rights or options, whether or not exercised,
plus
the consideration received for issuing or selling the Convertible Securities,
whether or not converted, plus the consideration, if any, actually received
by
the Company (other than by cancellation of liabilities or obligations evidenced
by such Convertible Securities) on the conversion of such Convertible
Securities. As used herein, the “Effective
Price”
of
the
shares of Additional Stock shall mean the quotient determined by dividing
the
total number of shares of Additional Stock issued or sold, or deemed to
have
been issued or sold by the Company under this Section 2(e), into the aggregate
consideration received, or deemed to have been received by the Company
for such
issue under this Section 2(e), for such shares of Additional Stock.
7
(f) Certificate
as to Adjustments.
Upon
the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Purchase Price
pursuant
to this Section 2, the Company at its expense shall, as promptly as reasonably
practicable but in any event not later than ten business days thereafter,
compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof
and
furnish to the Registered Holder a certificate setting forth such adjustment
or
readjustment (including the kind and amount of securities, cash or other
property for which this Warrant shall be exercisable and the Purchase Price)
and
showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment
is based.
The Company shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the written
request at any time of the Registered Holder (but in any event not later
than
five business days thereafter), furnish or cause to be furnished to the
Registered Holder a certificate setting forth (i) the Purchase Price then
in effect and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if
any, of other securities, cash or property which then would be received
upon the
exercise of this Warrant.
(g) Deminimis
Adjustments.
No
adjustment in the Purchase Price need be made unless the adjustment would
require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in the Purchase Price. Any
adjustments that are not made shall be carried forward and taken into account
in
any subsequent adjustment.
3. Fractional
Shares.
The
Company shall not be required upon the exercise of this Warrant to issue
any
fractional shares, but shall pay the value thereof to the Registered Holder
in
cash on the basis of the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock, as
determined pursuant to subsection 1(b) above.
8
4. Transfers,
etc.
(a) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, 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, or (ii) such sale or transfer
shall be exempt from the registration requirements of the Act and the Company
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 Securities Act. Notwithstanding
the
foregoing, no registration or opinion of counsel shall be required for
(i) a transfer by a Registered Holder which is an entity to a wholly owned
subsidiary or affiliate of such entity, a transfer by a Registered Holder
which
is a partnership to a partner of such partnership or a retired partner
of such
partnership or to the estate of any such partner or retired partner, or
a
transfer by a Registered Holder which is a limited liability company to
a member
of such limited liability company or a retired member or to the estate
of any
such member or retired member to the extent any such transfers are exempt
from
the registration requirements of the Securities Act, provided that the
transferee in each case agrees in writing to be subject to the terms of
this
Section 4, or (ii) a transfer made in accordance with Rule 144
under the Securities Act.
(b) Each
certificate representing Warrant Shares shall bear a legend substantially
in the
following form:
“The
securities represented hereby have not been registered under the Securities
Act
of 1933, as amended, or any state securities laws and neither the securities
nor
any interest therein may be offered, sold, transferred, pledged or otherwise
disposed of except pursuant to an effective registration under such act
or an
exemption from registration, which, in the opinion of counsel reasonably
satisfactory to counsel for this corporation, is available.”
The
foregoing legend shall be removed from the certificates representing any
Warrant
Shares, at the request of the Registered Holder thereof, at such time as
they
become eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act
or at such time as the Warrant Shares are sold or transferred in accordance
with
the requirements of a registration statement of the Company on Form S-1,
or such
other form as may then be in effect.
(c) The
Company will maintain a register containing the name and address of the
Registered Holder of this Warrant. The Registered Holder may change its
address
as shown on the warrant register by written notice to the Company requesting
such change.
(d) Subject
to the provisions of this Section 4, this Warrant and all rights hereunder
are
transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant with
a
properly executed assignment (in the form of Exhibit II
hereto)
at the principal office of the Company (or, if another office or agency
has been
designated by the Company for such purpose, then at such other office or
agency).
9
5. No
Impairment.
The
Company will not, by amendment of its charter or through any reorganization,
transfer of 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 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 Registered Holder against impairment.
6. Notices
of Record Date, etc. In the event:
(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 Common
Stock
of the Company, any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into
another
corporation, 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 send or cause to be sent to the Registered
Holder a notice specifying, as the case may be, (i) the record date for
such
dividend, distribution or right, and 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 sent at least five business 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 securities, cash and/or property, as from time to time shall be issuable
upon the exercise of this Warrant.
8. Exchange
or Replacement of Warrants.
(a) Upon
the
surrender by the Registered Holder, properly endorsed, to the Company at
the
principal office of the Company, the Company will, subject to the provisions
of
Section 5 hereof, issue and deliver to or upon the order of the Registered
Holder, at the Company’s expense, a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor, in
the name of the Registered Holder or as the Registered Holder (upon payment
by
the Registered Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct, calling
in
the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of
Common
Stock (or other securities, cash and/or property) then issuable upon exercise
of
this Warrant.
10
(b) Upon
receipt of evidence reasonably 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
requested) 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. Notices.
All
notices and other communications from the Company to the Registered Holder
in
connection herewith shall be mailed by certified or registered mail, postage
prepaid, or sent via a reputable nationwide overnight courier service
guaranteeing next business day delivery, to the address last furnished
to the
Company in writing by the Registered Holder. All notices and other
communications from the Registered Holder to the Company in connection
herewith
shall be mailed by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, or sent
via a
reputable nationwide overnight courier service guaranteeing next business
day
delivery, to the Company at its principal office set forth below. If the
Company
should at any time change the location of its principal office to a place
other
than as set forth below, it shall give prompt written notice to the Registered
Holder and thereafter all references in this Warrant to the location of
its
principal office at the particular time shall be as so specified in such
notice.
All such notices and communications shall be deemed delivered one business
day
after being sent via a reputable international overnight courier service
guaranteeing next business day delivery.
10. No
Rights as Stockholder. Until the exercise of this Warrant, the Registered
Holder shall not have or exercise any rights by virtue hereof as a stockholder
of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event (i) the Company
effects a split of the Common Stock by means of a stock dividend and the
Purchase Price of and the number of Warrant Shares are adjusted as of the
date
of the distribution of the dividend (rather than as of the record date
for such
dividend), and (ii) the Registered Holder exercises this Warrant between
the record date and the distribution date for such stock dividend, the
Registered Holder shall be entitled to receive, on the distribution date,
the
stock dividend with respect to the shares of Common Stock acquired upon
such
exercise, notwithstanding the fact that such shares were not outstanding
as of
the close of business on the record date for such stock dividend.
11. Amendment
or Waiver. Any term of this Warrant may be amended or waived (either
generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively)
with the written consent of the Company and the holders of Company Warrants
representing at least two-thirds of the number of shares of Common Stock
then
subject to outstanding Company Warrants. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
(a) this
Warrant may be amended and the observance of any term hereunder may be
waived
without the written consent of the Registered Holder only in a manner which
applies to all Company Warrants proportionately and otherwise in the same
fashion and (b) the number of Warrant Shares subject to this Warrant and
the
Purchase Price of this Warrant may not be amended, and the right to exercise
this Warrant may not be waived, without the written consent of the Registered
Holder (it being agreed that an amendment to or waiver under any of the
provisions of Section 2 of this Warrant shall not be considered an amendment
of
the number of Warrant Shares or the Purchase Price). The Company shall
give
prompt written notice to the Registered Holder of any amendment hereof
or waiver
hereunder that was effected without the Registered Holder’s written consent. No
waivers of any term, condition or provision of this Warrant, in any one
or more
instances, shall be deemed to be, or construed as, a further or continuing
waiver of any such term, condition or provision.
11
12. Dispute
Resolution. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Purchase
Price or the arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares, the Company
shall
submit the disputed determinations or arithmetic calculations via facsimile
within two business days of receipt of the Purchase Form giving rise to
such
dispute, as the case may be, to the Registered Holder. If the Holder and
the
Company are unable to agree upon such determination or calculation of the
Purchase Price or the Warrant Shares within three business days of such
disputed
determination or arithmetic calculation being submitted to the Registered
Holder, then the Company shall, within two business days submit via facsimile
(a) the disputed determination of the Purchase Price to an independent,
reputable investment bank selected by the Company and approved by the Registered
Holder or (b) the disputed arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares
to the
Company's independent, outside accountant. The Company, at the Company's
expense, shall use reasonable best efforts to cause at its expense the
investment bank or the accountant, as the case may be, to perform the
determinations or calculations and notify the Company and the Registered
Holder
of the results no later than ten business days from the time it receives
the
disputed determinations or calculations. Such investment bank's or accountant's
determination or calculation, as the case may be, shall be binding upon
all
parties absent demonstrable error.
13. Section
Headings. The section headings in this Warrant are for the convenience of
the parties and in no way alter, modify, amend, limit or restrict the
contractual obligations of the parties.
14. Governing
Law. This Warrant will be governed by and construed in accordance with
the
internal laws of the State of New York (without reference to the conflicts
of
law provisions thereof).
15. Facsimile
Signatures. This Warrant may be executed by facsimile signature or
electronic document in PDF format.
