hereby incorporated herein) and may have such letters, numbers, or other marks
of identification or designation and such legends, summaries, or endorsements
printed, lithographed, or engraved thereon as the Company may deem appropriate
and as are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, or as may be
required to comply with any law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant

(whether upon initial issuance, transfer, exchange, or in lieu of mutilated,

Class A Warrant Certificates shall be numbered serially with the letter W.
(b) Warrant Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the
Company by its Chairman of the Board, President, or any Vice President and by
its Secretary or an Assistant Secretary, by manual signatures or by facsimile
signatures printed thereon, and
-5-
shall have imprinted thereon a facsimile of the Company's seal. Warrant
Certificates shall be manually countersigned by the Warrant Agent and shall not
be valid for any purpose unless so countersigned. In case any officer of the
Company who shall have signed any of the Warrant Certificates shall cease to be
an officer of the Company or to hold the particular office referenced in the
Warrant Certificate before the date of issuance of the Warrant Certificates or
before countersignature by the Warrant Agent and issue and delivery thereof,
such Warrant Certificates may nevertheless be countersigned by the Warrant
Agent, issued and delivered with the same force and effect as though the person
who signed such Warrant Certificates had not ceased to be an officer of the
Company or to hold such office. After countersignature by the Warrant Agent,
Warrant Certificates shall be delivered by the Warrant Agent to the Registered
Holder without further action by the Company, except as otherwise provided by
Section 4 hereof.
3. Exercise. Each Warrant may be exercised by the Registered Holder
thereof at any time on or after the Initial Exercise Date, but not after the
Warrant Expiration Date, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth
herein and in the applicable Warrant Certificate. A Warrant shall be deemed to
have been exercised immediately prior to the close of business on the Exercise
Date and the person entitled to receive the securities deliverable upon such
exercise shall be treated for all purposes as the holder of those securities
upon the exercise of the Warrant as of the close of business on the Exercise
Date. As soon as practicable on or after the Exercise Date the Warrant Agent
shall deposit the proceeds received from the exercise of a Warrant and shall
notify the Company in writing of the exercise of the Warrants. Promptly
following, and in any event within five days after the date of such notice from
the Warrant Agent, the Warrant Agent, on behalf of the Company, shall cause to
be issued and delivered by the Transfer Agent, to the person or persons entitled
to receive the same, a certificate or certificates for the securities
deliverable upon such exercise (plus a certificate for any remaining unexercised
Warrants of the Registered Holder), unless prior to the date of issuance of such
certificates the Company shall instruct the Warrant Agent to refrain from
causing such issuance of certificates pending clearance of checks received in
payment of the Purchase Price pursuant to such Warrants. Upon the exercise of
any Warrant and
-6-
clearance of the funds received, the Warrant Agent shall promptly remit the
payment received for the Warrant (the "Warrant Proceeds") to the Company or as
the Company may direct in writing.
4. Reservation of Shares; Listing; Payment of Taxes, etc.
(a) The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve
and keep available out of its authorized Common Stock, solely for the purpose of
issue upon exercise of Warrants, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall
then be issuable upon the exercise of all outstanding Warrants. The Company
covenants that all shares of Common Stock which shall be issuable upon exercise
of the Warrants shall, at the time of delivery, be duly and validly issued,
fully paid, nonassessable, and free from all taxes, liens, and charges with
respect to the issue thereof, (other than those which the Company shall promptly
pay or discharge) and that upon issuance such shares shall be listed on each
national securities exchange or eligible for inclusion in each automated
quotation system, if any, on which the other shares of outstanding Common Stock
of the Company are then listed or eligible for inclusion.
(b) The Company covenants that if any securities to be
reserved for the purpose of exercise of Warrants hereunder require registration
with, or approval of, any governmental authority under any federal securities
law before such securities may be validly issued or delivered upon such
exercise, then the Company will, to the extent the Purchase Price is less than
the Market Price (as hereinafter defined), in good faith and as expeditiously as
reasonably possible, endeavor to secure such registration or approval and will
use its reasonable efforts to obtain appropriate approvals or registrations
under state "blue sky" securities laws. With respect to any such securities,
however, Warrants may not be exercised by, or shares of Common Stock issued to,
any Registered Holder in any state in which such exercise would be unlawful.
(c) The Company shall pay all documentary, stamp, or similar
taxes and other governmental charges that may be imposed with respect to the
issuance of Warrants, or the issuance, or delivery of any shares upon exercise
of the Warrants; provided, however, that if the shares of Common Stock are to be
delivered
-7-
in a name other than the name of the Registered Holder of the Warrant
Certificate representing any Warrant being exercised, then no such delivery
shall be made unless the person requesting the same has paid to the Warrant
Agent the amount of transfer taxes or charges incident thereto, if any.
(d) The Warrant Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized to
requisition the Company's Transfer Agent from time to time for certificates
representing shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, and
the Company will authorize the Transfer Agent to comply with all such proper
requisitions. The Company will file with the Warrant Agent a statement setting
forth the name and address of the Transfer Agent of the Company for shares of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants.
5. Exchange and Registration of Transfer.
(a) Warrant Certificates may be exchanged for other Warrant
Certificates representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants of the same
class or may be transferred in whole or in part. Warrant Certificates to be
exchanged shall be surrendered to the Warrant Agent at its Corporate Office, and
upon satisfaction of the terms and provisions hereof, the Company shall execute
and the Warrant Agent shall countersign, issue, and deliver in exchange therefor
the Warrant Certificate or Certificates which the Registered Holder making the
exchange shall be entitled to receive.
(b) The Warrant Agent shall keep at its office books in which,
subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, it shall register
Warrant Certificates and the transfer thereof in accordance with its regular
practice. Upon due presentment for registration of transfer of any Warrant
Certificate at such office, the Company shall execute and the Warrant Agent
shall issue and deliver to the transferee or transferees a new Warrant
Certificate or Certificates representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants.
(c) With respect to all Warrant Certificates presented for
registration or transfer, or for exchange or exercise, the subscription form on
the reverse thereof shall be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written
instrument or instruments of
-8-
transfer and subscription, in form satisfactory to the Company and the Warrant
Agent, duly executed by the Registered Holder or his attorney-in-fact duly
authorized in writing.
(d) A service charge may be imposed by the Warrant Agent for
any exchange or registration of transfer of Warrant Certificates. In addition,
the Company may require payment by such holder of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith.
(e) All Warrant Certificates surrendered for exercise or for
exchange in case of mutilated Warrant Certificates shall be promptly cancelled
by the Warrant Agent and thereafter retained by the Warrant Agent until
termination of this Agreement or resignation as Warrant Agent, or disposed of or
destroyed, at the direction of the Company.
(f) Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer
thereof, the Company and the Warrant Agent may deem and treat the Registered
Holder of any Warrant Certificate as the absolute owner thereof and of each
Warrant represented thereby (notwithstanding any notations of ownership or
writing thereon made by anyone other than a duly authorized officer of the
Company or the Warrant Agent) for all purposes and shall not be affected by any
notice to the contrary. The Warrants which are being publicly offered in Units
with shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement will be
immediately detachable from the Common Stock and transferable separately
therefrom.
6. Loss or Mutilation. Upon receipt by the Company and the Warrant
Agent of evidence satisfactory to them of the ownership of and loss, theft,
destruction, or mutilation of any Warrant Certificate and (in case of loss,
theft, or destruction) of indemnity satisfactory to them, and (in the case of
mutilation) upon surrender and cancellation thereof, the Company shall execute
and the Warrant Agent shall (in the absence of notice to the Company and/or
Warrant Agent that the Warrant Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide
purchaser) countersign and deliver to the Registered Holder in lieu thereof a
new Warrant Certificate of like tenor representing an equal aggregate number of
Warrants. Applicants for a substitute Warrant Certificate shall comply with such
other reasonable
-9-
regulations and pay such other reasonable charges as the Warrant
Agent may prescribe.
7. Redemption.
(a) On not less than thirty (30) days notice given at any time
after the earlier of (i) ______, 1999 or (ii) or ________, 1998 with the consent
of IAR, the Warrants may be redeemed, at the option of the Company, at a
redemption price of $0.05 per Warrant, provided the Market Price of the Common
Stock receivable upon exercise of the Warrant shall equal or exceed $7.20 per
share (the "Target Price"), subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 8(f)
below. Market Price for the purpose of this Section 8 shall mean (i) the average
closing bid price for any twenty (20) consecutive trading days ending within
fifteen (15) days prior to the date of the notice of redemption, which notice
shall be mailed no later than five days after the date thereof, of the Common
Stock as reported by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
Automatic Quotation System or (ii) the last reported sale price, for twenty (20)
consecutive business days, ending within fifteen (15) days of the date of the
notice of redemption, which notice shall be mailed no later than five days after
the date thereof, on the primary exchange on which the Common Stock is traded,
if the Common Stock is traded on a national securities exchange.
(b) If the conditions set forth in Section 8(a) are met, and
the Company desires to exercise its right to redeem the Warrants, it shall mail
a notice of redemption to each of the Registered Holders of the Warrants to be
redeemed, first class, postage prepaid, not later than the thirtieth day before
the date fixed for redemption, at their last address as shall appear on the
records maintained pursuant to Section 6(b). Any notice mailed in the manner
provided herein shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given whether
or not the Registered Holder receives such notice.
(c) The notice of redemption shall specify (i) the redemption
price, (ii) the date fixed for redemption, (ill) the place where the Warrant
Certificates shall be delivered and the redemption price paid, and (iv) that the
right to exercise the Warrant shall terminate at 5:00 P.M. (New York time) on
the business day immediately preceding the date fixed for redemption.
-10-
The date fixed for the redemption of the Warrant shall be the Redemption Date.
No failure to mail such notice nor any defect therein or in the mailing thereof
shall affect the validity of the proceedings for such redemption except as to a
Registered Holder (a) to whom notice was not mailed or (b) whose notice was
defective. An affidavit of the Warrant Agent or of the Secretary or an Assistant
Secretary of the Company that notice of redemption has been mailed shall, in the
absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein.
(d) Any right to exercise a Warrant shall terminate at 5:00
P.M. (New York time) on the business day immediately preceding the Redemption
Date. On and after the Redemption Date, Holders of the Warrants shall have no
further rights except to receive, upon surrender of the Warrant, the Redemption
Price.
(e) From and after the Redemption Date specified for, the
Company shall, at the place specified in the notice of redemption, upon
presentation and surrender to the Company by or on behalf of the Registered
Holder thereof of one or more Warrant Certificates evidencing Warrants to be
redeemed, deliver or cause to be delivered to or upon the written order of such
Holder a sum in cash equal to the redemption price of each such Warrant. From
and after the Redemption Date and upon the deposit or setting aside by the
Company of a sum sufficient to redeem all the Warrants called for redemption,
such Warrants shall expire and become void and all rights hereunder and under
the Warrant Certificates, except the right to receive payment of the redemption
price, shall cease.
(f) If the shares of the Company's Common Stock are subdivided
or combined into a greater or smaller number of shares of Common Stock, or the
Company issues a stock dividend on its Common Stock, the Target Price shall be
proportionally adjusted by multiplying the Target Price by a fraction, the
numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to such event and the denominator of which shall
be the total number of shares of Common Stock to be outstanding immediately
after such event.
8. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares of Common Stock
or Warrants.
-11-
(a) Subject to the exceptions referred to in Section 9(g)
below, in the event the Company shall, at any time or from time to time after
the date hereof, sell any shares of Common Stock for a consideration per share
less than the Market Price of the Common Stock (as defined in Section 8) on the
date of the sale or issue any shares of Common Stock as a stock dividend to the
holders of Common Stock, or subdivide or combine the outstanding shares of
Common Stock into a greater or lesser number of shares (any such sale, issuance,
subdivision, or combination being herein called a "Change of Shares"), then, and
thereafter upon each further Change of Shares, the Purchase Price in effect
immediately prior to such Change of Shares shall be changed to a price
(including any applicable fraction of a cent) determined by multiplying such
Purchase Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the sum of the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance
of such additional shares and the number of shares of Common Stock which the
aggregate consideration received (determined as provided in subsection 9(f)(G)
below) for the issuance of such additional shares would purchase at such current
market price per share of Common Stock, and the denominator of which shall be
the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after
the issuance of such additional shares. Such adjustment shall be made
successively whenever such an issuance is made.
Upon each adjustment of the Purchase Price pursuant to this
Section 9, the total number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the
exercise of each Warrant shall (subject to the provisions contained in Section
9(b) hereof) be such number of shares (calculated to the nearest tenth)
purchasable at the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment
multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Purchase Price in
effect immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which shall
be the Purchase Price in effect immediately after such adjustment.
(b) The Company may elect, upon any adjustment of the Purchase
Price hereunder, to adjust the number of Warrants outstanding, in lieu of the
adjustment in the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise
of each Warrant as hereinabove provided, so that each Warrant outstanding after
such adjustment shall still represent the right to purchase one share
-12-
of Common Stock with respect to the Class A Warrants. Each Warrant held of
record prior to such adjustment of the number of Warrants shall become that
number of Warrants (calculated to the nearest tenth) determined by multiplying
the number one by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Purchase Price
in effect immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which
shall be the Purchase Price in effect immediately after such adjustment. Upon
each adjustment of the number of Warrants pursuant to this Section 9, the
Company shall, as promptly as practicable, cause to be distributed to each
Registered Holder of Warrant Certificates on the date of such adjustment Warrant
Certificates evidencing, subject to Section 10 hereof, the number of additional
Warrants to which such Holder shall be entitled as a result of such adjustment
or, at the option of the Company, cause to be distributed to such Holder in
substitution and replacement for the Warrant Certificates held by him prior to
the date of adjustment (and upon surrender thereof, if required by the Company)
new Warrant Certificates evidencing the number of Warrants to which such Holder
shall be entitled after such adjustment.
(c) In case of any reclassification, capital reorganization,
or other change of outstanding shares of Common Stock, or in case of any
consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other
than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing
corporation and which does not result in any reclassification, capital
reorganization, or other change of outstanding shares of Common Stock), or in
case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation of the property of the
Company as, or substantially as, an entirety (other than a sale/leaseback,
mortgage, or other financing transaction), the Company shall cause effective
provision to be made so that each holder of a warrant then outstanding shall
have the right thereafter, by exercising such Warrant, to purchase the kind and
number of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash)
receivable upon such reclassification, capital reorganization, or other change,
consolidation, merger, sale, or conveyance by a holder of the number of shares
of Common Stock that might have been purchased upon exercise of such Warrant
immediately prior to such reclassification, capital reorganization, or other
change, consolidation, merger, sale, or conveyance. Any such provision shall
include provision for adjustments that shall be as nearly
-13-
equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section
9. The Company shall not effect any such consolidation, merger, or sale unless
prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof the successor (if other
than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger or the corporation
purchasing assets or other appropriate corporation or entity shall assume, by
written instrument executed and delivered to the Warrant Agent, the obligation
to deliver to the holder of each Warrant such shares of stock, securities, or
assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such holders may be
entitled to purchase and the other obligations under this Agreement. The
foregoing provisions shall similarly apply to successive reclassification,
capital reorganizations, and other changes of outstanding shares of Common Stock
and to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, or conveyances.
(d) Irrespective of any adjustments or changes in the Purchase
Price or the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of the
Warrants, the Warrant Certificates theretofore and thereafter issued shall,
unless the Company shall exercise its option to issue new Warrant Certificates
pursuant to Section 2(d) hereof, continue to express the Purchase Price per
share, the number of shares purchasable thereunder, and the Redemption Price
therefor as the Purchase Price per share, and the number of shares purchasable
and the Redemption Price therefore were expressed in the Warrant Certificates
when the same were originally issued.
(e) After each adjustment of the Purchase Price pursuant to
this Section 9, the Company will promptly prepare a certificate signed by the
Chairman or President, and by the Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer or the
Secretary or an Assistant Secretary, of the Company setting forth: (i) the
Purchase Price as so adjusted, (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock
purchasable upon exercise of each Warrant after such adjustment, and, if the
Company shall have elected to adjust the number of Warrants, the number of
Warrants to which the registered holder of each Warrant shall then be entitled,
and the adjustment in Redemption Price resulting therefrom, and (iii) a brief
statement of the facts accounting for such adjustment. The Company will promptly
file such certificate with the Warrant Agent and cause a brief summary thereof
to be sent by ordinary first class mail to IAR and to each registered holder of
Warrants
-14-
at his last address as it shall appear on the registry books of the Warrant
Agent. No failure to mail such notice nor any defect therein or in the mailing
thereof shall affect the validity thereof except as to the holder to whom the
Company failed to mail such notice, or except as to the holder whose notice was
defective. The affidavit of an officer of the Warrant Agent or the Secretary or
an Assistant Secretary of the Company that such notice has been mailed shall, in
the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein.
(f) For purposes of Section 9(a) and 9(b) hereof, the
following provisions (i) to (vii) shall also be applicable:
(i) The number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding at any given time shall not include shares of Common Stock owned or
held by or for the account of the Company and the sale or issuance of such
treasury shares or the distribution of any such treasury shares shall be
considered a Change of Shares for purposes of said sections.
(ii) No adjustment of the Purchase Price shall be
made unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least
$.10 in such price; provided that any adjustments which by reason of this
subsection (ii) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and shall
be made at the time of and together with the next subsequent adjustment which,
together with any adjustment(s) so carried forward, shall require an increase or
decrease of at least $.10 in the Purchase Price then in effect hereunder.
(iii) In case of (1) the sale by the Company for
cash of any rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase, or any options for
the purchase of, Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable
for Common Stock without the payment of any further consideration other than
cash, if any (such convertible or exchangeable securities being herein called
"Convertible Securities"), or (2) the issuance by the Company, without the
receipt by the Company of any consideration therefor, of any rights or warrants
to subscribe for or purchase, or any options for the purchase of, Common Stock
or Convertible Securities, in each case, if (and only if) the consideration
payable to the Company upon the exercise of such rights, warrants, or options
shall consist of cash, whether or not such
-15-
rights, warrants, or options, or the right to convert or exchange such
Convertible Securities, are immediately exercisable, and the price per share for
which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such rights, warrants, or
options or upon the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities
(determined by dividing (x) the minimum aggregate consideration payable to the
Company upon the exercise of such rights, warrants, or options, plus the
consideration received by the Company for the issuance or sale of such rights,
warrants, or options, plus, in the case of such Convertible Securities, the
minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, other than such
Convertible Securities, payable upon the conversion or exchange thereof, by (y)
the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of
such rights, warrants, or options or upon the conversion or exchange of such
Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such rights, warrants, or
options) is less than the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of
the issuance or sale of such rights, warrants, or options, then the total
maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such
rights, warrants, or options or upon the conversion or exchange of such
Convertible Securities (as of the date of the issuance or sale of such rights,
warrants, or options) shall be deemed to be outstanding shares of Common Stock
for purposes of Sections 9(a) and 9(b) hereof and shall be deemed to have been
sold for cash in an amount equal to such price per share.
(iv) In case of the sale by the Company for cash
of any Convertible Securities, whether or not the right of conversion or
exchange thereunder is immediately exercisable, and the price per share for
which Common Stock is issuable upon the conversion or exchange of such
Convertible Securities (determined by dividing (x) the total amount of
consideration received by the Company for the sale of such Convertible
Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if
any, other than such Convertible Securities, payable upon the conversion or
exchange thereof, by (y) the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities) is less
than the fair market value or the Common Stock on the date of the sale of such
Convertible Securities, then the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities (as of
the date of the sale of such
-16-
Convertible Securities) shall be deemed to be outstanding shares of Common Stock
for purposes of Sections 9(a) and 9(b) hereof and shall be deemed to have been
sold for cash in an amount equal to such price per share.
(v) In case the Company shall modify the rights
of conversion, exchange, or exercise of any of the securities referred to in
subsection (iii) above or any other securities of the Company convertible,
exchangeable, or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, for any reason other
than an event that would require adjustment to prevent dilution, so that the
consideration per share received by the Company after such modification is less
than the market price on the date prior to such modification, the Purchase Price
to be in effect after such modification shall be determined by multiplying the
Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such event by a fraction, of which
the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding plus the
number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration receivable by
the Company for the securities affected by the modification would purchase at
the market price and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding on such date plus the number of shares of Common Stock
to be issued upon conversion, exchange, or exercise of the modified securities
at the modified rate. Such adjustment shall become effective as of the date upon
which such modification shall take effect.
(vi) On the expiration of any such right, warrant,
or option or the termination of any such right to convert or exchange any such
Convertible Securities, the Purchase Price then in effect hereunder shall
forthwith be readjusted to such Purchase Price as would have obtained (a) had
the adjustments made upon the issuance or sale of such rights, warrants,
options, or Convertible Securities been made upon the basis of the issuance of
only the number of shares of Common Stock theretofore actually delivered (and
the total consideration received therefor) upon the exercise of such rights,
warrants, or options or upon the conversion or exchange of such Convertible
Securities and (b) had adjustments been made on the basis of the Purchase Price
as adjusted under clause (a) for all transactions (which would have affected
such adjusted Purchase Price) made after the issuance or sale of such rights,
warrants, options, or Convertible Securities.
-17-
(vii) In case of the sale for cash of any shares
of Common Stock, any Convertible Securities, any rights or warrants to subscribe
for or purchase, or any options for the purchase of, Common Stock or Convertible
Securities, the consideration received by the Company therefore shall be deemed
to be the gross sales price therefor without deducting therefrom any expense
paid or incurred by the Company or any underwriting discounts or commissions or
concessions paid or allowed by the Company in connection therewith.
(g) No adjustment to the Purchase Price of the Warrants or to
the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of each
Warrant will be made, however,
(i) upon the sale or exercise of the Warrants,
including without limitation the sale or exercise of any of the Warrants
comprising the 1995 Representative's Unit Purchase Option or the
Representative's Unit Purchase Option; or
(ii) upon the sale of any shares of Common Stock
in the Company's initial public offering, including, without limitation, shares
sold upon the exercise of any over-allotment option granted to the Underwriters
in connection with such offering; or
(iii) upon the issuance or sale of Common
Stock or Convertible Securities upon the exercise of any rights or warrants to
subscribe for or purchase, or any options for the purchase of, Common Stock or
Convertible Securities, whether or not such rights, warrants, or options were
outstanding on the date of the original sale of the Warrants or were thereafter
issued or sold; or
(iv) upon the issuance or sale of Common Stock
upon conversion or exchange of any Convertible Securities, whether or not any
adjustment in the Purchase Price was made or required to be made upon the
issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities and whether or not such
Convertible Securities were outstanding on the date of the original sale of the
Warrants or were thereafter issued or sold; or
(v) upon the issuance or sale of Common Stock or
Convertible Securities in a private placement unless the issuance
-18-
or sale price is less than 85% of the fair market value of the Common Stock on
the date of issuance, in which case the adjustment shall only be for the
difference between 85% of the fair market value and the issue or sale price; or
(vi) upon the issuance or sale of Common Stock or
Convertible Securities to shareholders of any corporation which merges into the
Company or from which the Company acquires assets and some or all of the
consideration consists of equity securities of the Company, in proportion to
their stock holdings of such corporation immediately prior to the acquisition
but only if no adjustment is required pursuant to any other provision of this
Section 9.
(h) Intentionally Omitted.
(i) Any determination as to whether an adjustment in the
Purchase Price in effect hereunder is required pursuant to Section 9, or as to
the amount of any such adjustment, if required, shall be binding upon the
holders of the Warrants and the Company if made in good faith by the Board of
Directors of the Company.
(j) If and whenever the Company shall grant to the holders of
Common Stock, as such, rights or warrants to subscribe for or to purchase, or
any options for the purchase of, Common Stock or securities convertible into or
exchangeable for or carrying a right, warrant, or option to purchase Common
Stock, the Company shall concurrently therewith grant to each Registered Holder
of the Warrants then outstanding as of the record date for such transaction, the
rights, warrants, or options to which each Registered Holder would have been
entitled if, on the record date used to determine the stockholders entitled to
the rights, warrants, or options being granted by the Company, the Registered
Holder were the holder of record of the number of whole shares of Common Stock
then issuable upon exercise (assuming, for purposes of this section 9(j), that
exercise of Warrants is permissible during periods prior to the Initial Warrant
Exercise Date) of his Warrants. Such grant by the Company to the holders of the
Warrants shall be in lieu of any adjustment which otherwise might be called for
pursuant to this Section 9.
-19-
9. Fractional Warrants and Fractional Shares.
(a) If the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon
the exercise of each Warrant is adjusted pursuant to Section 9 hereof, the
Company nevertheless shall not be required to issue fractions of shares, upon
exercise of the Warrants or otherwise, or to distribute certificates that
evidence fractional shares. With respect to any fraction of a share called for
upon any exercise hereof, the Company shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash
equal to such fraction multiplied by the current market value of such fractional
share, determined as follows:
(i) If the Common Stock is listed on a National
Securities Exchange or admitted to unlisted trading privileges on such exchange
or listed for trading on the NASDAQ Quotation System, the current value shall be
the last reported sale price of the Common Stock on such exchange on the last
business day prior to the date of exercise of this Warrant or if no such sale is
made on such day, the average of the closing bid and asked prices for such day
on such exchange; or
(ii) If the Common Stock is not listed or admitted
to unlisted trading privileges, the current value shall be the mean of the last
reported bid and asked prices reported by the National Quotation Bureau, Inc. on
the last business day prior to the date of the exercise of this Warrant; or
(iii) If the Common Stock is not so listed or
admitted to unlisted trading privileges and bid and asked prices are not so
reported, the current value shall be an amount determined in such reasonable
manner as may be prescribed by the Board of Directors of the Company.
10. Warrant Holders Not Deemed Stockholders. No holder of Warrants
shall, as such, be entitled to vote or to receive dividends or be deemed the
holder of Common Stock that may at any time be issuable upon exercise of such
Warrants for any purpose whatsoever, nor shall anything contained herein be
construed to confer upon the holder of Warrants, as such, any of the rights of a
stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or
upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or
withhold
-20-
consent to any corporate action (whether upon any recapitalization, issue or
reclassification of stock, change of par value or change of stock to no par
value, consolidation, merger, or conveyance or otherwise), or to receive notice
of meetings, or to receive dividends or subscription rights, until such Holder
shall have exercised such Warrants and been issued shares of Common Stock in
accordance with the provisions hereof.
11. Rights of Action. All rights of action with respect to this
Agreement are vested in the respective Registered Holders of the Warrants, and
any Registered Holder of a Warrant, without consent of the Warrant Agent or of
the holder of any other Warrant, may, in his own behalf and for his own benefit,
enforce against the Company his right to exercise his Warrants for the purchase
of shares of Common Stock in the manner provided in the Warrant Certificate and
this Agreement.
12. Agreement of Warrant Holders. Every holder of a Warrant, by his
acceptance thereof, consents and agrees with the Company, the Warrant Agent and
every other holder of a warrant that:
(a) The warrants are transferable only on the registry books
of the Warrant Agent by the Registered Holder thereof in person or by his
attorney duly authorized in writing and only if the Warrant Certificates
representing such Warrants are surrendered at the office of the Warrant Agent,
duly endorsed or accompanied by a proper instrument of transfer satisfactory to
the Warrant Agent and the Company in their sole discretion, together with
payment of any applicable transfer taxes; and
(b) The Company and the Warrant Agent may deem and treat the
person in whose name the Warrant Certificate is registered as the holder and as
the absolute, true, and lawful owner of the Warrants represented thereby for all
purposes, and neither the Company nor the Warrant Agent shall be affected by any
notice or knowledge to the contrary, except as otherwise expressly provided in
Section 7 hereof.
13. Cancellation of Warrant Certificates. If the Company shall
purchase or acquire any Warrant or Warrants, the Warrant Certificate or Warrant
Certificates evidencing the same shall thereupon be delivered to the Warrant
Agent and cancelled by it
-21-
and retired. The Warrant Agent shall also cancel Common Stock following exercise
of any or all of the Warrants represented thereby or delivered to it for
transfer, splitup, combination, or exchange.
14. Concerning the Warrant Agent. The Warrant Agent acts hereunder as
agent and in a ministerial capacity for the Company, and its duties shall be
determined solely by the provisions hereof. The Warrant Agent shall not, by
issuing and delivering Warrant Certificates or by any other act hereunder be
deemed to make any representations as to the validity, value, or authorization
of the Warrant Certificates or the Warrants represented thereby or of any
securities or other property delivered upon exercise of any Warrant or whether
any stock issued upon exercise of any Warrant is fully paid and nonassessable.
The Warrant Agent shall not at any time be under any duty or
responsibility to any holder of Warrant Certificates to make or cause to be made
any adjustment of the Purchase Price or the Redemption Price provided in this
Agreement, or to determine whether any fact exists which may require any such
adjustments, or with respect to the nature or extent of any such adjustment,
when made, or with respect to the method employed in making the same. It shall
not (i) be liable for any recital or statement of facts contained herein or for
any action taken, suffered, or omitted by it in reliance on any warrant
Certificate or other document or instrument believed by it in good faith to be
genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties,
(ii) be responsible for any failure on the part of the Company to comply with
any of its covenants and obligations contained in this Agreement or in any
Warrant Certificate, or (iii) be liable for any act or omission in connection
with this Agreement except for its own negligence or wilful misconduct.
The Warrant Agent may at any time consult with counsel
satisfactory to it (who may be counsel for the Company) and shall incur no
liability or responsibility for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in
good faith in accordance with the opinion or advice of such counsel.
Any notice, statement, instruction, request, direction, order,
or demand of the Company shall be sufficiently evidenced
-22-
by an instrument signed by the Chairman of the Board, President, any Vice
President, its Secretary, or Assistant Secretary, (unless other evidence in
respect thereof is herein specifically prescribed). The Warrant Agent shall not
be liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in accordance with
such notice, statement, instruction, request, direction, order, or demand
believed by it to be genuine.
The Company agrees to pay the Warrant Agent reasonable
compensation for its services hereunder and to reimburse it for its reasonable
expenses hereunder; it further agrees to indemnify the Warrant Agent and save it
harmless against any and all losses, expenses, and liabilities, including
judgments, costs, and counsel fees, for anything done or omitted by the Warrant
Agent in the execution of its duties and powers hereunder except losses,
expenses, and liabilities arising as a result of the Warrant Agent's negligence
or wilful misconduct.
The Warrant Agent may resign its duties and be discharged from
all further duties and liabilities hereunder (except liabilities arising as a
result of the Warrant Agent's own negligence or wilful misconduct), after giving
30 days' prior written notice to the Company. At least 15 days prior to the date
such resignation is to become effective, the Warrant Agent shall cause a copy of
such notice of resignation to be mailed to the Registered Holder of each Warrant
Certificate at the Company's expense. Upon such resignation, or any inability of
the Warrant Agent to act as such hereunder, the Company shall appoint a new
warrant agent in writing. If the Company shall fail to make such appointment
within a period of 15 days after it has been notified in writing of such
resignation by the resigning Warrant Agent, then the Registered Holder of any
Warrant Certificate may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a new warrant agent. Any new warrant agent, whether appointed by
the Company or by such a court, shall be a bank or trust company having a
capital and surplus, as shown by its last published report to its stockholders,
of not less than $10,000,000 or a stock transfer company. After acceptance in
writing of such appointment by the new warrant agent is received by the Company,
such new warrant agent shall be vested with the same powers, rights, duties, and
responsibilities as if it had been originally named herein as the Warrant Agent,
without any further assurance, conveyance, act, or deed; but if for any
-23-
reason it shall be necessary or expedient to execute and deliver any further
assurance, conveyance, act, or deed, the same shall be done at the expense of
the Company and shall be legally and validly executed and delivered by the
resigning Warrant Agent. Not later than the effective date of any such
appointment the Company shall file notice thereof with the resigning warrant
Agent and shall forthwith cause a copy of such notice to be mailed to the
Registered Holder of each Warrant Certificate.
Any corporation into which the Warrant Agent or any new
warrant agent may be converted or merged or any corporation resulting from any
consolidation to which the Warrant Agent or any new warrant agent shall be a
party or any corporation succeeding to the trust business of the Warrant Agent
shall be a successor warrant agent under this Agreement without any further act,
provided that such corporation is eligible for appointment as successor to the
Warrant Agent under the provisions of the preceding paragraph. Any such
successor warrant agent shall promptly cause notice of its succession as warrant
agent to be mailed to the Company and to the Registered Holder of each Warrant
Certificate.
The Warrant Agent, its subsidiaries and affiliates, and any of
its or their officers or directors, may buy and hold or sell Warrants or other
securities of the Company and otherwise deal with the Company in the same manner
and to the same extent and with like effects as though it were not Warrant
Agent. Nothing herein shall preclude the Warrant Agent from acting in any other
capacity for the Company or for any other legal entity.
15. Modification of Agreement. The Warrant Agent and the Company may by
supplemental agreement make any changes or corrections in this Agreement (i)
that they shall deem appropriate to cure any ambiguity or to correct any
defective or inconsistent provision or manifest mistake or error herein
contained; or (ii) that they may deem necessary or desirable and which shall not
adversely affect the interests of the holders of Warrant Certificates; provided,
however, that this Agreement shall not otherwise be modified, supplemented, or
altered in any respect except with the consent in writing of the Registered
Holders of Warrant Certificates representing not less than 50% of the Warrants
then outstanding; and provided, further, that no change in the number or nature
of the securities purchasable upon
-24-
the exercise of any Warrant, or the Purchase Price therefor, or the acceleration
of the Warrant Expiration Date, shall be made without the consent in writing of
the Registered Holder of the Warrant Certificate representing such Warrant,
other than such changes as are specifically prescribed by this Agreement as
originally executed or are made in compliance with applicable law.
16. Notices. All notices, requests, consents, and other communications
hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been made when

or the Company); and if to the Warrant Agent, at its Corporate office.

the benefit of the Company and, the Warrant Agent and their respective

Certificates. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to

or to impose upon any other person any duty, liability, or obligation.
19. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate at the close of
business on the Warrant Expiration Date of all the Warrants or such earlier
date upon which all Warrants have been exercised, except that the Warrant Agent

15

registration statement and will use its best efforts to cause the same to become
effective and to keep such registration statement current while any of the

Holder in any state where such exercise would be unlawful.
This Warrant Certificate is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by
the Registered Holder at the corporate office of the Warrant Agent, for a new
Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates of like tenor representing an equal
aggregate number of Warrants, each of such new Warrant Certificates to represent
such number of Warrants as shall be designated by such Registered Holder at the
