2. EXERCISE OF WARRANT
2.1. MANNER OF EXERCISE.
(a) After September 30, 2001 and until 5:00 P.M., New York City
time, on the Expiration Date, the Holder may from time to time exercise
this Warrant, on any Business Day, for the number of shares of Common Stock
purchasable hereunder (subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 4 hereof)
calculated as the product of (x) 1,340,000 MULTIPLIED by (y) the quotient
of (I) the difference of (1) 156,100,000 MINUS (2) the dollar amount
prepaid on the Tranche A Term Loans and the dollar amount of the reductions
of the Revolving Commitments (from the aggregate Revolving Commitments
available to the Company on April 12, 2001) determined, in each case, as of
5:00 P.M., New York City time, on September 30, 2001 DIVIDED by (II)
156,100,000 (the number of shares of Warrant Stock purchasable under this
Warrant, if any, shall be referred to as the "Purchasable Shares"). The
determination of the Purchasable Shares pursuant to the foregoing formula
shall be calculated and certified by the Principal Accounting Officer of
the Company at 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on September 30, 2001 and
absent manifest error such determination shall be final, binding and
conclusive on the Holder. The Company shall deliver to the Holder, at the
address on file at the Company, prior to 10:00 A.M., New York City time, on
October 1, 2001 a certificate setting forth the calculation of and the
number of Purchasable Shares. In order to exercise this Warrant, in whole
or in part, the Holder shall (x) deliver to the Company at the Designated
Office a written notice of the Holder's election to exercise this Warrant
(an "Exercise Notice"), which Exercise Notice shall be irrevocable and
specify the number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased, together with
this Warrant and (y) pay to the Company the Warrant Price (the date on
which both such delivery and payment shall have first taken place being
hereinafter sometimes referred to as the "Exercise Date"). Such Exercise
Notice shall be in the form of the subscription form attached as ANNEX A to
this Warrant, duly executed by the Holder or its duly authorized agent or
attorney.
(b) Upon receipt by the Company of such Exercise Notice, Warrant and
payment of the Warrant Price, the Company shall, as promptly as practicable, and
in any event within five (5) Business Days thereafter, execute (or cause to be
executed) and deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Holder a certificate or
certificates representing the aggregate number of full shares of Common Stock
issuable upon such exercise, together with cash in lieu of any fraction of a
share, as hereafter provided. The stock certificate or certificates so delivered
shall be, to the extent possible, in such denomination or denominations as the
exercising Holder shall reasonably request in the Exercise Notice and shall be
registered in the name of the Holder or such other name as shall be designated
in the Exercise Notice. This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised and
such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have been issued, and the
Holder or any other Person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to
have become a holder of record of such shares of Common Stock for all purposes,
as of the Exercise Date, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that a Holder shall not be entitled
to revoke, rescind or modify its Exercise Notice after such notice is delivered
to the Company.
(c) Payment of the Warrant Price shall be made (i) by delivery to
the Company of a certified or official bank check in the amount of such
Warrant Price or (ii) without the payment of cash, by (1) canceling
outstanding Loans (including accrued interest thereon through the Exercise
Date) held and designated by such Holder in an amount equal to the Warrant
Price, subject to appropriate allocation of cancelled Loans among the
parties to the Credit Agreement, (2) reducing the number of shares of
Common Stock which would be obtainable upon the exercise of this Warrant by
the payment of the Warrant Price solely in cash so as to yield a number of
shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant equal to the
product of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable as of the
Exercise Date upon the exercise of this Warrant (if payment of the Warrant
Price were being made in cash) and (y) the Cashless Exercise Ratio or (3)
any combination of permitted exercises pursuant to clauses (1) and (2)
above. An exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the immediately
preceding clause (ii) is herein called a "Cashless Exercise". Subject to
Section 2.1 hereof, the rights represented by this Warrant shall be
exercisable at the election of the Holder thereof either in full at any
time or from time to time in part and in the event that a certificate is
surrendered for exercise of less than all the Warrants represented by such
certificate at any time prior to the Expiration Date, a new certificate
representing the remaining Warrants shall be issued.
(d) If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company
shall, at the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates representing
the shares of Common Stock being issued, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant
evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased shares of
Warrant Stock called for by this Warrant. Such new Warrant shall in all other
respects be identical with this Warrant.
2.2. NO LIENS. All shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise
of this Warrant pursuant to the terms hereof shall be validly issued, fully paid
and nonassessable, issued without violation of any preemptive rights and free
and clear of all Liens (other than any created by actions of the Holder).
2.3. FRACTIONAL SHARES. The Company shall not be required to issue a
fractional share of Common Stock upon exercise of any Warrant. As to any
fraction of a share that the Holder of one or more Warrants, the rights under
which are exercised in the same transaction, 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 the same fraction of the Fair Value
of one share of Common Stock on the Exercise Date.
2.4. CONTINUED VALIDITY AND APPLICATION. A holder of shares of Warrant
Stock issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, in whole or in part, including
any permitted transferee of such shares (other than a permitted transferee in
whose hands such shares no longer constitute Warrant Stock as defined herein),
shall continue, with respect to such shares, to be entitled to all rights and
to be subject to all obligations that are applicable to such holder by the terms
of this Warrant. The Company shall, at the time of any exercise of this Warrant
or any transfer of Warrant Stock, upon the written request of the holder of the
shares of Warrant Stock issued in connection with such exercise or transfer,
acknowledge in writing, in a form reason ably satisfactory to such holder, its
continuing obligation to afford to such holder such rights referred to in this
Section 2.4; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if such holder of Warrant Stock shall fail
to make any such written request, such failure shall not affect the continuing
obligation of the Company to afford to such holder all such rights.
3. TRANSFER, DIVISION AND COMBINATION
3.1. TRANSFER. Subject to compliance with Section 8 hereof, each
transfer of this Warrant and all rights hereunder, in whole or in part,
shall be registered on the books of the Company to be maintained for such
purpose, upon surrender of this Warrant at the Designated Office, together
with a written assignment of this Warrant in the form attached as ANNEX B
to this Warrant, duly executed by the Holder or its duly authorized agent
or attorney. Upon such surrender and delivery, the Company shall, subject
to Section 8 hereof, execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the
name of the assignee or assignees and in the 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 in
compliance with Section 8 hereof, may be exercised by the new Holder for
the purchase of shares of Common Stock without having a new Warrant issued.
This Warrant may not be offered, sold or otherwise transferred by a Holder
prior to October 1, 2001.
3.2. DIVISION AND COMBINATION. Subject to compliance with the
applicable provisions of this Warrant, this Warrant may be divided or combined
with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the Designated Office, together
with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new
Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder or its duly authorized agent or
attorney. Subject to compliance with the applicable provisions of this Warrant
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.
3.3. EXPENSES. The Company shall prepare, issue and deliver at its own
expense any new Warrant or Warrants required to be issued under this Section 3.
3.4. MAINTENANCE OF BOOKS. The Company agrees to maintain, at the
Designated Office, books for the registration and transfer of the Warrants.
4. ANTIDILUTION PROVISIONS
The number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to
time as set forth in this Section 4.
4.1. STOCK DIVIDENDS, SUBDIVISIONS AND COMBINATIONS. If at any time
the Company shall:
(a) take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose
of entitling them to receive a dividend payable in, or other distribution
of, additional shares of Common Stock,
(b) subdivide, split or reclassify its outstanding shares of Common
Stock into a larger number of shares of such Common Stock, or
(c) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller
number of shares of such Common Stock,
then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to equal the product of the Exercise
Price in effect immediately prior to such event multiplied by a fraction the
numerator of which is equal to the number of shares of Common Stock Outstanding
immediately prior to the adjustment and the denominator of which is equal to the
number of shares of Common Stock Outstanding immediately after such adjustment.
4.2. ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL SHARES OF COMMON STOCK. (a) If at any time
the Company shall issue or sell any shares of Common Stock in a Subsequent
Issuance for a consideration per share that is less than the Fair Value thereof,
then, forthwith upon such issuance or sale, the Exercise Price shall be reduced
to the price calculated by:
dividing (i) an amount equal to the sum of (x) the number of shares of
Common Stock Fully Diluted Outstanding immediately prior to such Subsequent
Issuance multiplied by the then existing Fair Value per share, plus (y) the
aggregate consideration (determined in accordance with the provisions of
Section 4.7 hereof), if any, received by the Company in connection with
such Subsequent Issuance, by (ii) the total number of shares of Common
Stock Fully Diluted Outstanding immediately after such Subsequent Issuance.
(b) The provisions of this Section 4.2 shall not apply to (i) any
issuance of Common Stock for which an adjustment is provided for under Section
4.1 hereof or (ii) any issuance or sale of Common Stock pursuant to the exercise
of any Stock Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities to the extent that an
adjustment shall have been previously made hereunder in connection with the
issuance of such Stock Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities pursuant to the
provisions of Section 4.3 hereof.
4.3. ISSUANCES OF STOCK PURCHASE RIGHTS AND CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES
(a) In the event that the Company shall at any time issue, sell
or grant any Stock Purchase Rights to any Person in a Subsequent Issuance,
then, for the purpose of Section 4.2 hereof, the Company shall be deemed to
have issued at that time a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the
maximum number of shares of Common Stock that are or may become issuable
upon exercise of such Stock Purchase Rights (or upon exercise of any
Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of such Stock Purchase
Rights) for a consideration per share equal to (i) the aggregate
consideration per share (determined in accordance with the provisions of
Section 4.7 hereof) received by the Company in connection with the
issuance, sale or grant of such Stock Purchase Rights plus (ii) the minimum
amount of such consideration per share receivable by the Company in
connection with the exercise of such Stock Purchase Rights (and the
exercise of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of such Stock
Purchase Rights).
(b) In the event that the Company shall at any time issue or sell any
Convertible Securities to any Person in a Subsequent Issuance, then, for the
purposes of Section 4.2 hereof, the Company shall be deemed to have issued at
that time a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the maximum number of
shares of Common Stock that are or may become issuable upon the exercise of the
conversion or exchange rights associated with such Convertible Securities for a
consideration per share equal to (i) the aggregate consideration per share
(determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.7 hereof) received by
the Company in connection with the issuance or sale of such Convertible
Securities plus (ii) the minimum amount of such consideration per share
receivable by the Company in connection with the exercise of such conversion or
exchange rights.
(c) If, at any time after any adjustment of the Exercise Price shall
have been made hereunder as the result of any issuance, sale or grant of any
Stock Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities, the maximum number of shares
issuable upon exercise of such Stock Purchase Rights or of the rights of
conversion or exchange associated with such Convertible Securities shall
increase, or the minimum amount of consideration per share receivable in
connection with such exercise shall decrease, whether by operation of any
antidilution rights pertaining to such Stock Purchase Rights or Convertible
Securities, by agreement of the parties or otherwise, the Exercise Price then in
effect shall first be readjusted to eliminate the effects of the original
issuance, sale or grant of such Stock Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities
on such Exercise Price and then readjusted as if such Stock Purchase Rights or
Convertible Securities had been issued on the effective date of such increase in
number of shares or decrease in consideration.
(d) If, at any time after any adjustment of the Exercise Price
shall have been made hereunder as the result of any issuance, sale or grant
of any Stock Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities, any of such Stock
Purchase Rights or the rights of conversion or exchange associated with
such Convertible Securities shall expire by their terms or any of such
Stock Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities shall be repurchased by the
Company or a Subsidiary thereof for a consideration per underlying share of
Common Stock not exceeding the amount of such consideration received by the
Company in connection with the issuance, sale or grant of such Stock
Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities, the Exercise Price then in
effect shall forthwith be increased to the Exercise Price that would have
been in effect if such expiring Stock Purchase Rights or rights of
conversion or exchange or such repurchased Stock Purchase Rights or
Convertible Securities had never been issued. Similarly, if at any time
after any such adjustment of the Exercise Price shall have been made
pursuant to Section 4.2 hereof, (i) any additional consideration is
received or becomes receivable by the Company in connection with the
issuance or exercise of such Stock Purchase Rights or Convertible
Securities or (ii) there is a reduction in the conversion ratio applicable
to such Convertible Securities so that fewer shares of Common Stock will be
issuable upon the conversion or exchange thereof or there is a decrease in
the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Stock
Purchase Rights, the Exercise Price then in effect shall be forthwith
readjusted to the Exercise Price that would have been in effect had such
changes taken place at the time that such Stock Purchase Rights or
Convertible Securities were initially issued, granted or sold. In no event
shall any readjustment under this Section 4.3(d) affect the validity of any
shares of Warrant Stock issued upon any exercise of this Warrant prior to
such readjustment, nor shall any such readjustment have the effect of
increasing the Exercise Price above the Exercise Price that would have been
in effect if the related Stock Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities
had never been issued.
4.4. OTHER ADJUSTMENTS. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Warrant, in the event the Company consummates any transaction or series of
transactions which results in an antidilution or similar adjustment pursuant to
the terms of any Convertible Securities or Stock Purchase Rights, in each case
primarily for the benefit of any member of management or any director of the
Company, and such antidilution or similar adjustment is implemented pursuant to
and in compliance with the terms of such instrument, the Company shall make a
proportionate adjustment to this Warrant; PROVIDED THAT the foregoing and
Section 4.8 hereof shall not be interpreted to result in, or have the effect of
requiring, an adjustment to this Warrant upon a repricing of options or similar
equity instruments of the Company Beneficially Owned by any employee or director
of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company which is approved in good faith
by the Board of Directors (or a committee thereof) of the Company.
4.5. ADJUSTMENT OF NUMBER OF SHARES PURCHASABLE. Upon any adjustment
of the Exercise Price as provided in Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.6 and 4.8
hereof, as applicable, the Holder hereof shall thereafter be entitled to
purchase upon the exercise of this Warrant, at the Exercise Price resulting from
such adjustment, the number of shares of Common Stock (calculated to the nearest
1/100th of a share) obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable on the exercise hereof immediately prior to such adjustment and
dividing the product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting from such
adjustment.
4.6. 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 any change whatsoever in, or distribution with respect to, the
Outstanding Common Stock of the Company), or sell, transfer or otherwise
dispose of all or substantially all of its property, assets or business to
another corporation and, pursuant to the terms of such reorganization,
reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, (a)
shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the
Company (if it is the surviving corporation) or (b) 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 who are holders immediately prior to such transaction, then the
Holder of this Warrant shall have the right thereafter to receive, 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 such event,
the aggregate Exercise Price otherwise payable for the shares of Common
Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be allocated among the
shares of common stock and Other Property receivable as a result of such
reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of
assets in proportion to the respective fair market values of such shares of
common stock and Other Property as determined in good faith by the Board of
Directors of the Company. 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 reasonably deemed appropriate (as
determined by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company) in order
to provide for adjustments of any shares of the common stock of such
successor or acquiring corporation for which this Warrant thus becomes
exercisable, which modifications shall be as equivalent as practicable to
the adjustments provided for in this Section 4. For purposes of this
Section 4.6, "common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation" shall
include stock of such corporation of any class that is not preferred as to
dividends or assets over any other class of stock of such corporation and
that is not subject to redemption and shall also include any evidences of
indebtedness, shares of stock or other securities that 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 4.6 shall similarly apply to successive
reorganizations, reclassifications, mergers, consolidations or dispositions
of assets.
4.7. DETERMINATION OF CONSIDERATION. For purposes of Sections
4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.6 and 4.8 hereof, as applicable, the consideration
received and/or receivable by the Company in connection with the issuance,
sale, grant or exercise of additional shares of Common Stock, Stock
Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities, irrespective of the accounting
treatment of such consideration, shall be valued as follows:
(a) CASH PAYMENT. In the case of cash, the net amount received by the
Company after deduction of any underwriting commissions or concessions paid
or allowed by the Company.
(b) SECURITIES OR OTHER PROPERTY. In the case of securities or other
property, the fair market value thereof as of the date immediately
preceding such issuance, sale, grant or exercise as determined in good
faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.
(c) ALLOCATION RELATED TO COMMON STOCK. In the event shares of Common
Stock are issued or sold together with other securities or other assets of
the Company for a consideration which covers both, the consideration
received (computed as provided in (a) and (b) above) shall be allocable to
such shares of Common Stock as determined in good faith by the Board of
Directors of the Company.
(d) ALLOCATION RELATED TO STOCK PURCHASE RIGHTS AND CONVERTIBLE
Securities. In case any Stock Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities
shall be issued or sold together with other securities or other assets of
the Company, together comprising one integral transaction in which no
specific consideration is allocated to the Stock Purchase Rights or
Convertible Securities, the consideration allocable to such Stock Purchase
Rights or Convertible Securities shall be determined in good faith by the
Board of Directors of the Company.
(e) DIVIDENDS IN SECURITIES. In case the Company shall declare a
dividend or make any other distribution upon any stock of the Company
payable in either case in Common Stock or Convertible Securities, such
Common Stock or Convertible Securities, as the case may be, issuable in
payment of such dividend or distribution shall be deemed to have been
issued or sold without consideration.
(f) MERGER, CONSOLIDATION OR SALE OF ASSETS. In case any shares of
Common Stock, Stock Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities shall be
issued in connection with any merger or consolidation in which the Company
is the surviving corporation, the amount of consideration therefor shall be
deemed to be the fair value of such portion of the assets and business of
the non-surviving corporation attributable to such Common Stock, Stock
Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities, as is determined in good faith
by the Company's Board of Directors.
4.8. OTHER DILUTIVE EVENTS. In case any event shall occur as to which
the other provisions of this Section 4 are not strictly applicable but as to
which the failure to make any adjustment would not fairly protect the purchase
rights represented by this Warrant in accordance with the essential intent and
principles hereof as determined in good faith by the Company's Board of
Directors (including, without limitation, the issuance of equity securities
(other than as specifically provided in Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4 and 4.6),
the distribution to all holders of Common Stock of evidences of indebtedness,
cash or other property (other than cash dividends paid in the ordinary course of
business), the granting of "phantom stock" rights or "stock appreciation rights"
or the repurchase of outstanding shares of Common Stock, Convertible Securities
or Stock Purchase Rights for a purchase price exceeding Fair Value; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that the Company shall be permitted to effect (i) a self tender offer
of Common Stock up to 10% of the Fully Diluted Outstanding Common Stock at a
price not to exceed Fair Value on the date the self tender offer is first
publicly announced by the Company and (ii) a redemption of Convertible
Securities in accordance with the terms of such instrument as in effect on the
date hereof), then, in each such case, the Majority Warrant Holders may select
an independent investment banking firm of nationally recognized standing and
reasonably acceptable to the Company to make a determination as to the
adjustment, if any, required to be made on a basis consistent with the essential
intent and principles hereof as determined in good faith by the Board of
Directors of the Company as a result of such event in order to preserve the
purchase rights represented by the Warrants. If the investment bank selected by
the Majority Warrant Holders is not reasonably acceptable to the Company, and
the Company and the Majority Warrant Holders cannot agree on a mutually
acceptable investment bank, then the Company and the Majority Warrant Holders
shall each choose one such investment bank and the respective chosen firms shall
jointly select a third investment bank, which shall make the determination;
PROVIDED THAT in no circumstance shall a Holder or any of its Affiliates be
permitted to appoint themselves as or serve as a designee or be chosen as such.
The Company, on the one hand, and all affected holders of Warrants or Warrant
Stock, on the other hand, shall each pay 50% of the costs and fees of each such
investment bank (the holders of Warrants and Warrant Stock shall agree among
themselves the pro rata allocation of such costs and expenses), and the decision
of the investment bank making such determination shall be final and binding on
the Company and all affected holders of Warrants or Warrant Stock. Promptly
after receipt by the Company of the opinion of such investment bank as to any
such required adjustments, the Company shall take any actions necessary to
implement same.
4.9. OTHER PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO ADJUSTMENTS UNDER THIS SECTION 4.
The following provisions shall be applicable to the adjustments provided for
pursuant to this Section 4:
(a) WHEN ADJUSTMENTS TO BE MADE. The adjustments required by this
Section 4 shall be made whenever and as often as any specified event
requiring such an adjustment shall occur. For the purpose of any such
adjust ment, any specified event shall be deemed to have occurred at the
close of business on the date of its occurrence.
(b) RECORD DATE. In case the Company shall take a record of the
holders of the Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (i) to
receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Common Stock,
Convertible Securities or Stock Purchase Rights or (ii) to subscribe for or
purchase Common Stock, Convertible Securities or Stock Purchase Rights,
then all references in this Section 4 to the date of the issuance or sale
of such shares of Common Stock, Convertible Securities or Stock Purchase
Rights shall be deemed to be references to such record date.
(c) FRACTIONAL INTERESTS. In computing adjustments under this Section
4, fractional interests in Common Stock shall be taken into account to the
nearest 1/100th of a share.
(d) WHEN ADJUSTMENT NOT REQUIRED. If the Company shall take a record
of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to
receive a dividend or distribution to which the provisions of Section 4.1
hereof would apply, but shall, thereafter and before the distribution to
stockholders thereof, legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such
dividend or distribution, then thereafter no adjustment shall be required
by reason of the taking of such record and any such adjustment previously
made in respect thereof shall be rescinded and annulled.
(e) MAXIMUM EXERCISE PRICE. Except as provided in Section 4.1 hereof,
at no time shall the Exercise Price per share of Common Stock exceed the
amount set forth in the first paragraph of the preamble of this Warrant.
(f) CERTAIN LIMITATIONS. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, the Company agrees not to enter into any transaction that, by
reason of any adjustment under Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.6 and 4.8
hereof, as applicable, would cause the Exercise Price to be less than the
par value of the Common Stock, if any, unless the Company first reduces the
par value of the Common Stock to be less than the Exercise Price that would
result from such transaction.
(g) TAX ADJUSTMENTS. The Company may make such reductions in the
Exercise Price or increase in the number of Common Stock to be received by
any Holder upon the exercise or exchange of this Warrant, in addition to
those adjustments required by this Section 4, as it in its sole discretion
shall determine to be advisable in order that any consolidation or
subdivision of the Common Stock, or any issuance wholly for cash of any
shares of Common
Stock, or any issuance wholly for cash of shares of Common Stock or
Convertible Securities, or any stock dividend, or any issuance of Stock
Purchase Rights hereinafter made by the Company to the holders of its
Common Stock shall not be taxable to such holders.
(h) CERTAIN BUSINESS COMBINATIONS. The Company will not merge or
consolidate with or into, or sell, transfer or lease all or
substantially all of its property to, any other entity unless the
successor or purchasing entity, as the case may be (if not the
Company), shall expressly agree to provide to each Holder the
securities, cash or property required by Section 4.6 hereof upon the
exercise or exchange of this Warrant and expressly assumes, by
supplemental agreement, the due and punctual performance and
observance of each and every covenant and condition of this Warrant to
be performed and observed by the Company; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
initial obligation of such successor with respect to the exercise or
exchange of this Warrant shall be only as set forth in Section 4.6
hereof.
(i) NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENTS. Whenever the number of shares of Common
Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable or the Exercise Price shall be
adjusted pursuant to this Section 4, the Company shall forthwith prepare a
certificate to be executed by the chief financial officer of the Company
setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment and
the method by which such adjustment was calculated, specifying the number
of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable and (if
such adjustment was made pursuant to Section 4.6 hereof) describing the
number and kind of any other shares of stock or Other Property for which
this Warrant is exercisable, and any related change in the Exercise Price,
after giving effect to such adjustment or change. The Company shall
promptly cause a signed copy of such certificate to be delivered to each
Holder in accordance with Section 14.3 hereof. The Company shall keep at
its principal office or at the Designated Office, if different, copies of
all such certificates and cause the same to be available for inspection at
said office during normal business hours by any Holder or any prospective
transferee of a Warrant designated by a Holder thereof.
(j) INDEPENDENT APPLICATION. Except as otherwise provided herein, all
subsections of this Section 4 are intended to operate independently of one
another (but without duplication). If any single transaction would require
adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to more than one subsection of
this Section 4, only one adjustment shall be made and such adjustment shall
be the amount of adjustment which has the highest absolute value.
5. NO IMPAIRMENT
The Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation,
amending its charter documents or through any reorganization, reclassification,
transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of
securities or any other similar 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 the Holder against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Company shall take all such action as may be necessary or
appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid
and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant, free
and clear of all Liens, and shall use its best efforts to obtain all such
authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having
jurisdiction over it as may be necessary to enable the Company to perform its
obligations under this Warrant.
6. RESERVATION AND AUTHORIZATION OF COMMON STOCK; REGISTRATION WITH OR
APPROVAL OF ANY GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITY
From and after the Original Issue Date, the Company shall at all times
reserve and keep available for issuance upon the exercise of the Warrants such
number of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock as will be
sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Warrants. All
shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms hereof, when issued upon
exercise of this Warrant with payment therefor in accordance with the terms
hereof, shall be duly and validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable, not
subject to preemptive rights and shall be free and clear of all Liens. Before
taking any action that would result in an adjustment in the number of shares of
Common Stock 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 over such action. If any shares of Common Stock required to be
reserved for issuance upon exercise of Warrants require registration or
qualification with any governmental authority under any federal or state law
(other than under the Securities Act or any state securities law) before such
shares may be so issued, the Company will in good faith and as expeditiously as
possible and at its expense endeavor to cause such shares to be duly registered
or qualified, as the case may be.
7. NOTICE OF CORPORATE ACTIONS; TAKING OF RECORD; TRANSFER BOOKS
7.1. NOTICES OF CORPORATE ACTIONS. In the event of: (a) any
taking by the Company of a record of the holders of any class of securities
for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to
receive any dividend or distribution, or any right to subscribe for,
purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of capital stock of any class or
any other securities, (b) any capital reorganization of the Company, any
reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company or
any consolidation or merger involving the Company and any other Person or
any transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all the assets of
the Company to another Person, (c) any voluntary or involuntary
dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company, (d) any amendment of
the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, (e) any registration or
public offering of Common Stock or (f) any action taken by the Company
which could in any way dilute the Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable, the Company shall mail to each Holder of a Warrant in
accordance with the provisions of Section 14.3 hereof a notice specifying
(i) the date or expected date on which any such record is to be taken for
the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and
character of such dividend, distribution or right and (ii) the date or
expected date on which any such reorganization, reclassification,
recapitalization, consolidation, merger, transfer, disposition,
dissolution, liquidation, winding-up or other event is to take place, the
time, if any such time is to be fixed, as of which the holders of record of
Common Stock shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock for
the securities or Other Property deliverable upon such reorganization,
reclassification, recapitalization, consolidation, merger, transfer,
disposition, dissolution, liquidation, winding-up or other event and a
description in reasonable detail of the transaction. Such notice shall be
mailed to the extent practicable under the circumstances as determined in
the reasonable judgment of an officer of the Company at least fifteen (15)
days prior to the date therein specified, and shall describe the material
terms of the matter in question. In the event that the Company at any time
sends any other notice to the holders of its Common Stock, it shall
concurrently send a copy of such notice to each Holder of a Warrant.
7.2. TAKING OF RECORD. In the case of all dividends or other
distributions by the Company to the holders of its Common Stock with respect to
which any provision of any Section hereof refers to the taking of a record of
such holders, the Company will in each such case take such a record and will
take such record as of the close of business on a Business Day.
7.3. CLOSING OF TRANSFER BOOKS. The Company shall not at any time,
except upon dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company, close its
stock transfer books or Warrant transfer books so as to result in preventing or
delaying the exercise or transfer of any Warrant.
7.4. NO RIGHTS AS STOCKHOLDERS. Except as provided herein, Holders
shall have no rights as holders of Common Stock of the Company solely as a
result of being the Beneficial Owner of a Warrant. Holders shall have no right
to vote, consent or otherwise participate with respect to matters submitted to a
vote of the stockholders of the Company.
8. TRANSFER
The Holder, by acceptance of this Warrant, agrees to be bound by the
provisions of this Section 8.
8.1. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER. Neither this Warrant nor any shares of
Restricted Common Stock issued upon the exercise hereof shall be Transferred
other than pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities
Act or an exemption from the registration provisions thereof. This Warrant may
not be offered, sold or otherwise transferred by a Holder prior to October 1,
2001. Subject to Section 2.1(a) hereof, the Holder of this Warrant by its
acceptance hereof agrees to offer, sell or otherwise transfer such Warrant,
after September 30, 2001 and prior to the date (the "Resale Restriction
Termination Date") which is two years after the later of the Original Issue Date
and the last date on which the Company or any Affiliate of the Company was the

qualified institutional buyer to whom notice is given that the transfer is being
made in reliance on Rule 144A, (d) to an "accredited investor" within the
meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act that is an

purposes and not with a view to or for offer or sale in connection with any
distribution in violation of the Securities Act or (e) pursuant to any other
available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act,
including the exemption provided for by Rule 144 (if available), subject to the
Company's right prior to any such offer, sale or transfer pursuant to clauses
(d) or (e) to require the delivery of an Opinion of Counsel, certification
and/or other information reasonably satisfactory to it. The legends contained
in Section 8.2 hereof will be removed upon the written request of the Holder
after the Resale Restriction Termination Date. In connection with any Transfer,
the Holder will deliver to the Company such certificates and other information
as the Company may reasonably require to confirm that the transfer complies with
the foregoing restrictions. Holders of the Warrants or the Restricted Common
Stock, as the case may be, shall not be entitled to Transfer such Warrants or

8.3. TERMINATION OF SECURITIES LAW RESTRICTIONS. Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of Section 8 and subject to Section 2.1(a) hereof, the
restrictions imposed by Section 8.1 hereof upon the transferability of the
Warrants and the Restricted Common Stock and the legend requirements of Section
8.2 hereof shall terminate as to any particular Warrant or shares of Restricted
Common Stock when the Company shall have received from the holder thereof an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such legend is not required in order to
ensure compliance with the Securities Act. Whenever the restrictions imposed by
Sections 8.1 and 8.2 shall terminate as to this Warrant, as hereinabove
provided, the Holder hereof shall be entitled to receive from the Company, at
the expense of the Company, a new Warrant bearing the following legend in place
of the restrictive legend set forth hereon:
"THE RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY OF THE WITHIN WARRANT
CONTAINED IN SECTIONS 8.1 AND 8.2 HEREOF TERMINATED ON
______________, 20__, AND ARE OF NO FURTHER FORCE AND EFFECT."
All Warrants issued upon registration of transfer, division or combination
of, or in substitution for, any Warrant or Warrants entitled to bear such
legend shall have a similar legend endorsed thereon. Wherever the
restrictions imposed by this Section 8.3 shall terminate as to any share of
Restricted Common Stock, as hereinabove provided, the holder thereof shall
be entitled to receive from the Company, at the Company's expense, a new
certificate representing such Common Stock not bearing the restrictive
legend set forth in Section 8.2(a) hereof.
8.4. LISTING ON SECURITIES EXCHANGE. If the Company shall list any
shares of Common Stock on any securities exchange or on NASDAQ, it shall at its
expense, to the extent permitted by the rules of such securities exchange or
NASDAQ, list thereon, maintain and, when necessary, increase such listing of,
all shares of Warrant Stock issued or, to the extent permissible under the
applicable securities exchange rules, issuable upon the exercise of this
Warrant.
8.5. NOMINEES FOR BENEFICIAL OWNERS. In the event that any Warrant
Stock is held by a nominee for the Beneficial Owner thereof, the Beneficial
Owner thereof may, at its election, be treated as the holder of such Warrant
Stock for purposes of any request or other action by any holder or holders of
Warrant Stock pursuant to this Warrant or any determination of any number or
percentage of shares of Warrant Stock held by any holder or holders of Warrant
Stock contemplated by this Agreement. If the Beneficial Owner of any Warrant
Stock so elects, the Company may require assurances reasonably satisfactory to
it of such owner's Beneficial Ownership of such Warrant Stock; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that in no event shall there be "double-counting" of Warrants or
Warrant Stock.
8.6 PAYMENT OF TAXES. The Company shall not be required to issue or
deliver Warrant Stock or a new Warrant unless or until the Person or Persons
requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of any
applicable transfer or stamp taxes or shall have established to the reasonable
satisfaction of the Company that such taxes have been paid or are not due and
owing.
9. SUPPLYING INFORMATION; RULE 144
The Company shall cooperate with each holder of a Warrant and
each holder of Warrant Stock in supplying such information as may be
reasonably necessary for such holder to complete and file any information

144A of the Securities Act, in each case as such Rule may be amended from
time to time or replaced or supplemented by any similar rule or regulation
hereafter adopted by the Commission.

cancellation.

14.1. COMMISSION REPORTS. If at any time within two years from the
date hereof, the Company is not subject to the reporting requirements of Section
13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company shall use its reasonable best
efforts to file with the Commission (if permitted by Commission practice and
applicable laws and regulations) and provide the Holders within 15 days after it
files them with the Commission (or if not permitted, within 15 days after it
would have otherwise been required to file them with the Commission), copies of
its annual report and the information, documents and other reports that are
specified in Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act to the extent applicable
to the Company at such time. In addition, so long as the Common Stock is
publicly traded, the Company shall furnish to the Holders, promptly upon their
becoming available, copies of the annual report to shareholders and any other
information provided by the Company to its public shareholders generally.
14.2. NONWAIVER. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to
exercise any right hereunder on the part of the Company or the Holder shall
operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the rights, powers or
remedies of such Person.

approval, declaration, delivery or communication hereunder to be made pursuant
to the provisions of this Warrant shall be sufficiently given or made if in
writing and either delivered in person with receipt acknowledged or sent by
registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid,
addressed as follows:
(a) if to any Holder of this Warrant or holder of Warrant Stock issued

of the Company maintained for such purpose; and
(b) if to the Company, at its Designated Office,

provided. The giving of any notice required hereunder may be waived in
writing by the party entitled to receive such notice. Every notice, demand,
request, consent, approval, declaration, delivery or other communication

Business Days after the same shall have been deposited in the United States

14.4. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. No provision hereof, in the absence of
affirmative action by the Holder to purchase shares of Common Stock, and no
enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder hereof, shall give

Stock other than pursuant to an exercise of this Warrant or any liability as a
stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company
or by creditors of the Company.
14.5. REMEDIES. Each holder of Warrants and/or Warrant Stock, in
addition to being entitled to exercise its rights granted by law, including
recovery of damages, shall be entitled to specific performance of its rights
provided 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, in an action for specific
performance, to waive the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.
14.6. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Subject to the provisions of Sections
3.1, 8.1 and 8.2, this Warrant and the rights evidenced hereby shall inure to
the benefit of and be binding upon the successors of the Company and the
permitted successors and assigns of the Holder hereof. The provisions of this
Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of all Holders from time to time of
this Warrant and to the extent applicable, all holders of shares of Warrant
Stock issued upon the exercise hereof (including permitted transferees), and
shall be enforceable by any such holder.
14.7. AMENDMENT. This Warrant and all other Warrants may be modified
or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the
Company and the Majority Warrant Holders, provided that no such Warrant may be
modified or amended to reduce the number of shares of Common Stock for which
such Warrant is exercisable or to increase the price at which such shares may be
purchased upon exercise of such Warrant (before giving effect to any adjustment
as provided therein) without the written consent of the holder thereof.
14.8. 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 provision or the remaining provisions of
this Warrant.
14.9. 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.
