OF

(A Nevada corporation)
Infocast Corporation, a Nevada corporation (the "Company"), hereby
certifies that for value received, The Cuttyhunk Fund Limited (the "Registered
Holder"), residing at c/o Optima Management Partners L.P., 00 Xxxxx Xxxxxx,
Xxxxxxxx XX 00, Xxxxxxx, is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to
purchase from the Company, pursuant to this Warrant ("Warrant"), at any time or
from time to time on or after February 11, 2000, and at or before 5:00 p.m.,
Eastern Time, February 10, 2002 ("Expiration Date"), but not thereafter, 56,000
shares of Common Stock, $.001 par value, of the Company ("Common Stock"), at a
purchase price (the "Purchase Price") equal to $5.00 per share of Common Stock.
The number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant,
and the purchase price per share, each as adjusted from time to time pursuant to
the provisions of this Warrant, are hereinafter referred to as the "Warrant
Shares" and the "Purchase Price," respectively.
1. Exercise.
(a) This Warrant may be exercised by the Registered Holder, in
whole or in part, by the surrender of this Warrant (with the Notice of Exercise
Form attached hereto as Exhibit I duly executed, completed and delivered by such
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 an amount equal to the
then applicable Purchase Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares then
being purchased upon such exercise. If the rights represented hereby shall not
be exercised at or before 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on the Expiration Date, this
Warrant shall become and be void and without further force or effect, and all
rights represented hereby shall cease and expire.
(b) Each exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been
effected immediately prior to the close of business on the day on which this
Warrant shall have been surrendered to the Company as provided in subsection
l(a) above. At such time, the person or persons in whose name or names any
certificates for Warrant Shares shall be issuable upon such exercise as provided
in subsection I (c) below shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders
of record of the Warrant Shares represented by such certificates.
(c) As soon as practicable after the exercise of the purchase
right represented by this Warrant, the Company at its expense will use its best
efforts to cause to be issued in the name of the Registered Holder and delivered
to you:
(i) a certificate or certificates for the number of
full shares of Warrant Shares to which such Registered Holder shall be entitled
upon such exercise plus, in lieu of any fractional share to which such
Registered Holder would otherwise be entitled, a Warrant Share representing the
remainder of the fractional share to the next whole Warrant Share, and
(ii) in case such exercise is in part only, a new
warrant or warrants (dated the date hereof) of like tenor, stating on the face
or faces thereof the number of shares currently stated on the face of this
Warrant minus the number of such shares purchased by the Registered Holder upon
such exercise as provided in subsection l(a) above.
2. Adjustments.
(a) Split, Subdivision or Combination of Shares. If the
outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock at any time while this Warrant
remains outstanding and unexpired shall be subdivided or split into a greater
number of shares, or a dividend in Common Stock shall be paid in respect of
Common Stock, or a similar change in the Company's capitalization occurs which
affects the outstanding Common Stock, as a class, then the Purchase Price in
effect immediately prior to such subdivision or at the record date of such
dividend shall, simultaneously with the effectiveness of such subdivision or
split or immediately after the record date of such dividend (as the case may
be), be proportionately decreased. If the outstanding shares of Common Stock
shall be combined or reverse-split into a smaller number of shares, the Purchase
Price in effect immediately prior to such combination or reverse split shall,
simultaneously with the effectiveness of such combination or reverse split, be
proportionately increased. When any adjustment is required to be made in the
Purchase Price, the number of shares of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the
exercise of this Warrant shall be changed to the number determined by dividing
(i) an amount equal to the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of this
Warrant immediately prior to such
-2-
adjustment, multiplied by the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such
adjustment, by (ii) the Purchase Price in effect immediately after such
adjustment.
(b) Reclassification, Reorganization, Consolidation or Merger.
In the case of any reclassification of the Common Stock or any reorganization,
consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other
than a merger or reorganization with respect to which the Company is the
continuing corporation and which does not result in any reclassification of the
Common Stock), or a transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Company, or the payment of a liquidating distribution then, as part of any such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or liquidating
distribution, the Company shall arrange for the other party to the transaction
to agree to, and lawful provision shall be made, so that the Registered Holder
of this Warrant shall have the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise
hereof (to the extent, if any, still exercisable), the kind and amount of shares
of stock or other securities or property which such Registered Holder would have
been entitled to receive if, immediately prior to any such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or liquidating distribution, as
the case may be, such Registered Holder had held the number of shares of Common
Stock which were then purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant. In any such
case, appropriate adjustment (as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors
of the Company) shall be made in the application of the provisions set forth
herein with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Registered
Holder of this Warrant such that the provisions set forth in this Section 2
(including provisions with respect to the Purchase Price) shall thereafter be
applicable, as nearly as is reasonably practicable, in relation to any shares of
stock or other securities or property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise
of this Warrant.
3. Limitation on Sales. Each holder of this Warrant acknowledges that
this Warrant and the Warrant Shares have not been registered under the
Securities Act of 1933, as now in force or hereafter amended, or any successor
legislation (the "Act"), and agrees not to sell, pledge, distribute, offer for
sale, transfer or otherwise dispose of this Warrant or any Warrant Shares issued
upon its exercise in the absence of (a) an effective registration statement
under the Act as to this Warrant or such Warrant Shares and registration or
qualification of this Warrant or such Warrant Shares under any applicable Blue
Sky or state securities law then in effect or (b) an opinion of counsel,
satisfactory to the Company, that such registration and qualification are not
required. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless the offering
and sale of the Warrant Shares to be issued upon the particular exercise of the
Warrant shall have been effectively registered under the Act, the Company shall
be under no obligation to issue the shares covered by such exercise unless and
until the Registered Holder shall have executed an investment letter in form and
substance satisfactory to the Company, including a warranty at the time of such
exercise that it is acquiring such shares for its own account, and will not
transfer the Warrant Shares unless pursuant to an effective and current
registration statement under the Act or an exemption from the registration
requirements of the Act and any other applicable restrictions, in which event
the Registered Holder shall be bound by the provisions of a legend or legends to
such effect which shall be endorsed upon the certificate(s) representing the
Warrant Shares issued pursuant to such exercise. The Warrant
-3-
Shares issued upon exercise thereof shall be imprinted with legends in
substantially the following form:
"THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED ("ACT"), OR
APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, PLEDGED OR
OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT WITH
RESPECT THERETO UNDER THE ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM THE
REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF SAID ACT AND COMPLIANCE WITH ANY
APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAW, OR UNLESS THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN
OPINION OF COUNSEL, SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY AND ITS COUNSEL, THAT
SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED."
4. Notices of Record Date. In case:
(a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its
Common Stock (or other stock or securities at the time deliverable upon the
exercise of this Warrant) for the purpose of entitling or enabling them to
receive any dividend or other distribution (other than a dividend or
distribution payable solely in capital stock of the Company or out of funds
legally available therefor), or to receive any right to subscribe for or
purchase any shares of any class or any other securities, or to receive any
other right, or
(b) of any capital reorganization of the Company, any
reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, any consolidation or
merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a
consolidation or merger in which the Company is the surviving entity), or any
transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or
(c) of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation
or winding-up of the Company,
then, and in each such case, the Company will mail or cause to be mailed to the
Registered Holder of this Warrant a notice specifying, as the case may be, (i)
the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend,
distribution or right, and stating the amount and character of such dividend,
distribution or right, or (ii) the effective date on which such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or
winding-up is to take place, and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which
the holders of record of Common Stock (or such other stock or securities at the
time deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall be entitled to
exchange their shares of Common Stock (or such other stock or securities) for
securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or
winding-up. Such notice shall be mailed at least ten (10) days prior to the
record date or effective date for the event specified in such notice, provided
that the failure to mail such notice shall not affect the legality or validity
of any such action.
-4-
5. 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 shares of Warrant Shares and other stock, securities and property, as from
time to time shall be issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant.
6. Replacement of Warrants. 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 required) in an amount reasonably
satisfactory to the Company, or (in the case of mutilation) upon surrender and
cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will issue, in lieu thereof, a new
Warrant of like tenor.
7. Non-transferability of Warrants. This Warrant is not transferable
and may be exercised solely by the Registered Holder. Any attempt to transfer,
assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of, or to subject to execution, attachment
or similar process, this Warrant contrary to the provisions hereof shall be void
and ineffective and shall give no right to the purported transferee.
8. No Rights as Shareholder. Until the exercise of this Warrant, the
Registered Holder of this Warrant shall not have or exercise any rights by
virtue hereof as a shareholder of the Company.
9. Change or Waiver. Any term of this Warrant may be changed or waived
only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement
of the change or waiver is sought.
10. Headings. The headings in this Warrant are for purposes of
reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning of any
provision of this Warrant.
11. Governing Law. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada as such laws are applied to
contracts made and to be fully performed entirely within that state between
residents of that state.
12. Mailing of Notices, etc. All notices and other communications under
this Warrant (except payment) shall be in writing and shall be sufficiently
given if delivered to the addressees in person, by Federal Express or similar
receipt delivery, by facsimile delivery or, if mailed, postage prepaid, by
