FORM
OF COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
To
Purchase [Number
of Shares Underlying Warrant] Shares
of
Common Stock of
SRKP
18, Inc.
THIS
COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT CERTIFIES that, for value received, [Name
of Investor]
(the
“Holder”),
is
entitled, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the
conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after the date hereof (the
“Initial
Exercise Date”)
and on
or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) ten years from the
Initial Exercise Date or (ii) five years from the date the Company (as defined
below) consummates a merger or other business combination with an operating
business or any other event pursuant to which the Company ceases to be a “shell
company,” as defined by Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and
a “blank check company,” as defined by Rule 419 of the Securities Act (the
“Termination
Date”)
but
not thereafter, to subscribe for and purchase from SRKP 18, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the “Company”),
up to
[Number
of Shares Underlying Warrant] shares
(the “Warrant
Shares”)
of the
Company’s common stock, par value $.0001 per share (the “Common
Stock”).
The
purchase price of one share of Common Stock (the “Exercise
Price”)
under
this Warrant shall be $.0001,
subject
to adjustment hereunder. The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares
for
which the Warrant is exercisable shall be subject to adjustment as provided
herein.
1.
Title
to Warrant. Prior to the Termination Date and subject to compliance with
applicable laws and Section 7 of this Warrant, this Warrant and all rights
hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, at the office or agency of
the
Company by the Holder in person or by duly authorized attorney, upon surrender
of this Warrant together with the Assignment Form annexed hereto properly
endorsed. The transferee shall sign an investment letter in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Company.
2.
Authorization of Shares. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares
which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by
this
Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant,
be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from
all taxes, liens and charges in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes
in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such
issue).
3.
Exercise of Warrant.
(a) Except
as
provided in Section 4 herein, exercise of the purchase rights represented by
this Warrant may be made at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercise
Date and on or before the Termination Date by the surrender of this Warrant
and
the Notice of Exercise Form annexed hereto duly executed, at the office of
the
Company (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate
by
notice in writing to the registered Holder at the address of such Holder
appearing on the books of the Company). Upon payment of the Exercise Price
of
the shares thereby purchased by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a
United States bank, the Holder shall be entitled to receive a certificate for
the number of Warrant Shares so purchased. Certificates for Warrant Shares
purchased hereunder shall be delivered to the Holder within five (5) business
days after the date on which this Warrant shall have been exercised as
aforesaid. This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised and such
certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have been issued, and Holder
or
any other person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have
become a holder of record of such Warrant Shares for all purposes, as of the
date the Warrant has been exercised by payment to the Company of the Exercise
Price and all taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to
Section 5 prior to the issuance of such shares, have been paid. If the Company
fails to deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing the
Warrant Shares pursuant to this Section 3(a) by the fifth business day after
the
date of exercise, then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise
by written notice to the Company.
(b) If
this
Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the time of
delivery of the certificate or certificates representing Warrant Shares, deliver
to Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of Holder to purchase the
unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall
in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.
(c)
This
Warrant may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at any time prior to the
Termination Date, by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Holder shall be
entitled to receive a certificate for the number of Warrant Shares equal to
the
quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:
(A)
= the
closing bid price on the trading day preceding the date of such
election;
(B)
= the
Exercise Price of the Warrants, as adjusted; and
(X)
= the
number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants in accordance
with the terms of this Warrant.
4.
No
Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing
fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. As to
any
fraction of a share which Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon
such exercise, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final
fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Exercise
Price.
5.
Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares
shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or
other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such certificate, all
of
which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates
shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be
directed by the Holder; provided, however, that in the event certificates for
Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder,
this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the
Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder; and the Company
may
require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse
it
for any transfer tax incidental thereto.
6.
Closing of Books. The Company will not close its stockholder books or
records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant,
pursuant to the terms hereof.
7.
Transfer, Division and Combination.
(a) Subject
to compliance with any applicable securities laws and the conditions set forth
in Sections 1 and 7(e) hereof, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are
transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the
principal office of the Company, together with a written assignment of this
Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder
or
its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable
upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such
payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in
the
name of the assignee or assignees and in the denomination or denominations
specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor
a
new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this
Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. A Warrant, if properly assigned, may be
exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having
a
new Warrant issued.
(b) This
Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof
at the aforesaid office of the Company, together with a written notice
specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued,
signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with
Section 7(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or
combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants
in
exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance
with such notice.
(c) The
Company shall prepare, issue and deliver at its own expense (other than transfer
taxes) the new Warrant or Warrants under this Section 7.
(d) The
Company agrees to maintain, at its aforesaid office, books for the registration
and the registration of transfer of the Warrants.
(e) If,
at the
time
of
the surrender of this Warrant in connection with any transfer of this Warrant,
the transfer of this Warrant shall not be registered pursuant to an effective
registration
statement under the Securities Act
and
under
applicable state securities or blue sky laws, the Company may require, as a
condition of allowing such transfer, (i) that the Holder or transferee of this
Warrant, as the case may be, furnish to the Company a written opinion of counsel
reasonably acceptable to the Company (which opinion shall be in form, substance
and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions) to
the
effect that such transfer may be made without
registration under the
Securities Act and under applicable state securities or blue sky laws and (ii)
that the holder or transferee execute and deliver to the Company an investment
letter in form and substance acceptable to the Company.
8.
No
Rights as Shareholder until Exercise. This Warrant does not entitle the
Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the Company
prior to the exercise hereof. Upon the surrender of this Warrant and the payment
of the aggregate Exercise Price, the Warrant Shares so purchased shall be and
be
deemed to be issued to such Holder as the record owner of such shares as of
the
close of business on the later of the date of such surrender or payment.
9.
Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company covenants
that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it
of
the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock
certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or
destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which,
in
the case of the Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon
surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated,
the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like
tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock
certificate.
10.
Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the
taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein
shall be a Saturday, Sunday or a legal holiday, then such action may be taken
or
such right may be exercised on the next succeeding day not a Saturday, Sunday
or
legal holiday.
11.
Adjustments of Exercise Price and Number of Warrant Shares. The number
and kind of securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the
Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the
happening of any of the following. In case the Company shall (i) pay a dividend
in shares of Common Stock or make a distribution in shares of Common Stock
to
holders of its outstanding Common Stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding shares
of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, (iii) combine its outstanding
shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, or
(iv)
issue any shares of its capital stock in a reclassification of the Common Stock,
then in each such case the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise
of
this Warrant immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the Holder
shall be entitled to receive the kind and number of Warrant Shares or other
securities of the Company which it would have owned or have been entitled to
receive had such Warrant been exercised in advance thereof. Upon
each
such adjustment of the kind and number of Warrant Shares or other securities
of
the Company which are purchasable hereunder, the Holder shall thereafter be
entitled to purchase the number of Warrant Shares or other securities resulting
from such adjustment at an Exercise Price per Warrant Share or other security
obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such
adjustment by the number of Warrant Shares purchasable pursuant hereto
immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing by the number of Warrant
Shares or other securities of the Company resulting from such adjustment.
An
adjustment made pursuant to this paragraph shall become effective immediately
after the effective date of such event retroactive to the record date, if any,
for such event.
12.
Reorganization, Reclassification, Merger, Consolidation or Disposition
of
Assets. In case the Company shall reorganize its capital, reclassify its
capital stock, consolidate or merge with or into another corporation (where
the
Company is not the surviving corporation or where there is a change in or
distribution with respect to the Common Stock of the Company), or sell, transfer
or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all its property, assets or
business to another corporation and, pursuant to the terms of such
reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of
assets, shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation, or
any
cash, shares of stock or other securities or property of any nature whatsoever
(including warrants or other subscription or purchase rights) in addition to or
in lieu of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation (“Other
Property”), are to be received by or distributed to the holders of Common Stock
of the Company, then the Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive,
at
the option of the Holder, upon exercise of this Warrant, the number of shares
of
Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if
it
is the surviving corporation, and Other Property receivable upon or as a result
of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition
of assets by a Holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this
Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such event. In case of any such
reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of
assets, the successor or acquiring corporation (if other than the Company)
shall
expressly assume the due and punctual observance and performance of each and
every covenant and condition of this Warrant to be performed and observed by
the
Company and all the obligations and liabilities hereunder, subject to such
modifications as may be deemed appropriate (as determined in good faith by
resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company) in order to provide for
adjustments of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable which shall
be as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this
Section 12. For purposes of this Section 12, “common stock of the successor or
acquiring corporation” shall include stock of such corporation of any class
which is not preferred as to dividends or assets over any other class of stock
of such corporation and which is not subject to redemption and shall also
include any evidences of indebtedness, shares of stock or other securities
which
are convertible into or exchangeable for any such stock, either immediately
or
upon the arrival of a specified date or the happening of a specified event
and
any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any such stock. The
foregoing provisions of this Section 12 shall similarly apply to successive
reorganizations, reclassifications, mergers, consolidations or disposition
of
assets.
13.
Voluntary Adjustment by the Company. The Company may at any time during
the term of this Warrant reduce the then current Exercise Price to any amount
and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of
the
Company.
14.
Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares or number or
kind of securities or other property purchasable upon the exercise of this
Warrant or the Exercise Price is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company
shall
give notice thereof to the Holder, which notice shall state the number of
Warrant Shares (and other securities or property) purchasable upon the exercise
of this Warrant and the Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares (and other
securities or property) after such adjustment, setting forth a brief statement
of the facts requiring such adjustment and setting forth the computation by
which such adjustment was made.
15.
Notice of Corporate Action. If at any time:
(a) the
Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose
of entitling them to receive a dividend or other distribution, or any right
to
subscribe for or purchase any evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of
stock
of any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right,
or
(b) there
shall be any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification or
recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company or any consolidation or
merger of the Company with, or any sale, transfer or other disposition of all
or
substantially all the property, assets or business of the Company to, another
corporation or,
(c) there
shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up
of
the Company;
then,
in
any one or more of such cases (but not in such cases if the rights of the Holder
or holders of Common Stock will not be materially affected thereby, as for
example in the case of a merger to effect a change of domicile), the Company
shall give to Holder (i) at least 5 business days’ prior notice of the date on
which a record date shall be selected for such dividend, distribution or right
or for determining rights to vote in respect of any such reorganization,
reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition,
liquidation or winding up, and (ii) in the case of any such reorganization,
reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition,
dissolution, liquidation or winding up, at least 5 business days’ prior notice
of the date when the same shall take place. Such notice in accordance with
the
foregoing clause also shall specify (i) the date on which any such record is
to
be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, the date
on
which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to any such dividend,
distribution or right, and the amount and character thereof, and (ii) the date
on which any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation,
sale,
transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is to take place
and the time, if any such time is to be fixed, as of which the holders of Common
Stock shall be entitled to exchange their Warrant Shares for securities or
other
property deliverable upon such disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding
up. Each such written notice shall be sufficiently given if addressed to Holder
at the last address of Xxxxxx appearing on the books of the Company and
delivered in accordance with Section 18(d).
16.
Authorized
Shares. The Company covenants that during the period the Warrant is
outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock
a
sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares
upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company further
covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority
to
its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates
to
execute and issue the necessary certificates for the Warrant Shares upon the
exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all
such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares
may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or
regulation, or of any requirements of the trading market upon which the Common
Stock may be listed.
Except
and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall
not
by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate of
incorporation 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 actions as may be necessary or
appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against
impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will
(a) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable
therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value,
(b)
take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the
Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant
Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (c) use commercially reasonable
efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any
public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be necessary to enable
the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.
Before
taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant
Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the Exercise Price, the
Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents
thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having
jurisdiction thereof.
17. Miscellaneous.
(a)
Jurisdiction.
This
Warrant shall constitute a contract under the laws of Delaware, without regard
to its conflicts of laws principles or rules.
(b)
Restrictions.
The
Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this
Warrant, if not registered, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state
and federal securities laws.
(c)
Nonwaiver
and Expenses.
No
course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on
the
part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice
Holder’s rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding all rights hereunder
terminate on the Termination Date. If the Company willfully and knowingly fails
to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material
damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to Holder such amounts as shall
be
sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not limited to,
reasonable attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred
by Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise
enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.
(d)
Notices.
Any
notice, request or other document required or permitted to be given or delivered
pursuant to this Warrant shall

delivered by hand or by telecopy that has been confirmed as received by 5:00

(e)
Limitation
of Liability.
No
provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by Holder to exercise
this Warrant or purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights
or privileges of Holder, shall give rise to any liability of Holder for the
purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether
such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the
Company.
(f)
Remedies.
Holder,
in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including
recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights
under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be
adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of
the
provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive the defense in any action
for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.
(g)
Successors
and Assigns.
Subject

evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the

Amendment.
This
Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the
written consent of the Holder and the Company.
(i)
Severability.
Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such
manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision
of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such
provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity,
without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining
provisions of this Warrant.
(j)
Headings.
The
headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and
shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant.
