("Underlying Warrants") exercisable to purchase one share of the Company's
Common Stock. The "Common Stock Representative Warrants" and the "Warrant

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, the payment by the
Representative to the Company of ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS AND NO CENTS ($100.00), the
agreements herein set forth and other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto
agree as follows:
1. Grant and Period.
The Public Offering has been registered under a Registration Statement
on Form SB-2 (File No. 333-11789) and declared effective by the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "SEC" or "Commission") on _____________, 1997 (the
"Effective Date"). This Agreement, relating to the purchase of the Warrants, is
entered into pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement between the Company and the
Representative, as representative of the Underwriters, in
1
2
connection with the Public Offering.
Pursuant to the Warrants, the Holders are hereby granted the right to
purchase from the Company, at any time during the period commencing one year
after the Effective Date and expiring five (5) years thereafter (the "Expiration
Time"), up to 150,000 Shares at an initial exercise price (subject to adjustment
as provided in Article 8 hereof) of $____ per share (120% of the public offering
price) and/or 150,000 non-redeemable Underlying Warrants at an initial exercise
price of $____ per warrant (120% of the public offering price) (the "Exercise
Price" or "Purchase Price"), subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement. Each Underlying Warrant is exercisable to purchase one (1) share of
Common Stock at $____ per share during the five (5) year period commencing on
the Effective Date.
Except as specifically otherwise provided herein, the Shares and the
Underlying Warrants constituting the Warrant Securities shall bear the same
terms and conditions as such securities described under the caption "Description
of Securities" in the Registration Statement, and as designated in the Company's
Articles of Incorporation and any amendments thereto, and the Underlying
Warrants shall be governed by the terms of the Warrant Agreement executed in
connection with the Company's public offering (the "Warrant Agreement"), except
as provided herein, and the Holders shall have registration rights under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), for the Warrants, the Shares,
the Underlying Warrants, and the shares of Common Stock underlying the
Underlying Warrants, as more fully described in paragraph Article 7 of this
Representative's Warrant Agreement. In the event of any extension of the
expiration date or reduction of the exercise price of the Public Warrants, the
same such changes to the Underlying Warrants shall be simultaneously effected,
except that the Underlying Warrants shall expire no later than five (5) years
from the Effective Date.
2. Warrant Certificates.
The warrant certificates (the "Warrant Certificate",) delivered and to
be delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall be in the form set forth in the
form of Warrant Certificate, attached hereto and made a part hereof, with such
appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions, and other variations as
required or permitted by this Agreement.
3. Exercise of Warrant.
3.1 Full Exercise.
(i) The Holder hereof may effect a cash exercise of the Common
Stock Representative Warrants and/or the Warrant Representative
Warrants and/or the Underlying Warrants by surrendering the Warrant
Certificate, together with a Subscription in the form of Exhibit "A"
attached thereto, duly executed by such Holder to the Company, at any
time prior to the Expiration Time, at the Company's principal office,
accompanied by payment in cash or by certified or official bank check
payable to
2
3
the order of the Company in the amount of the aggregate purchase price
(the "Aggregate Price"), subject to any adjustments provided for in
this Agreement. The aggregate price hereunder for each Holder shall be
equal to the exercise price as set forth in Article 6 hereof multiplied
by the number of Warrants, Underlying Warrants or Shares that are the
subject of each Holder's Warrant (as adjusted as hereinafter provided).
(ii) The Holder hereof may effect a cashless exercise of the
Common Stock Representative Warrants and/or the Underlying Warrants by
delivering the Warrant Certificate to the Company together with a
Subscription in the form of Exhibit "B" attached thereto, duly executed
by such Holder, in which case no payment of cash will be required. Upon
such cashless exercise, the number of Shares to be purchased by each
Holder hereof shall be determined by dividing: (i) the number obtained
by multiplying the number of Shares that are the subject of each
Holder's Warrant Certificate by the amount, if any, by which the then
Market Value (as hereinafter defined) exceeds the Purchase Price; by
(ii) the per share purchase price. In no event shall the Company be
obligated to issue any fractional securities and, at the time it causes
a certificate or certificates to be issued, it shall pay the Holder in
lieu of any fractional securities or shares to which such Holder would
otherwise be entitled, by Company check, in an amount equal to such
fraction multiplied by the Market Value. The Market Value shall be
determined on a per Share basis as of the close of the business day
preceding the exercise, which determination shall be made as follows:
(a) if the Common Stock is listed for trading on a national or regional
stock exchange or is included on the NASDAQ National Market or
Small-Cap Market, the average closing sale price quoted on such
exchange or the NASDAQ National Market or Small-Cap Market which is
published in The Wall Street Journal for the ten (10) trading days
immediately preceding the date of exercise, or if no trade of the
Common Stock shall have been reported during such period, the last sale
price so quoted for the next day prior thereto on which a trade in the
Common Stock was so reported; or (b) if the Common Stock is not so
listed, admitted to trading or included, the average of the closing
highest reported bid and lowest reported ask price as quoted on the
National Association of Securities Dealer's OTC Bulletin Board or in
the "pink sheets" published by the National Daily Quotation Bureau for
the first day immediately preceding the date of exercise on which the
Common Stock is traded.
3.2 Partial Exercise. The securities referred to in Section 3.1 above
also may be exercised from time to time in part by surrendering the Warrant
Certificate in the manner specified in Section 3.1 hereof, except that with
respect to a cash exercise, the Purchase Price payable shall be equal to the
number of securities being purchased hereunder multiplied by the per security
Purchase Price, subject to any adjustments provided for in this Agreement. Upon
any such partial exercise, the Company, at its expense, will forthwith issue to
the Holder hereof a new Warrant Certificate or Warrants of like tenor calling in
the aggregate for the number of securities (as constituted as of the date
hereof) for which the Warrant Certificate shall not have been exercised, issued
in the name of the Holder hereof or as such Holder (upon payment by
3
4
such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct.
4. Issuance of Certificates.
Upon the exercise of the Warrants and/or the Underlying Warrants, the
issuance of certificates for the shares of Common Stock and/or other securities
shall be made forthwith (and in any event within three (3) business days
thereafter) without charge to the Holder thereof including, without limitation,
any tax which may be payable in respect of the issuance thereof, and such
certificates shall (subject to the provisions of Articles 5 and 7 hereof) be
issued in the name of, or in such names as may be directed by, the Holder
thereof; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any
tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and
delivery of any such certificates in a name other than that of the Holder and
the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless
or until the person or persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid
to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the
satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.
The Warrant Certificates and the certificates representing the shares
of Common Stock and/or other securities shall be executed on behalf of the
Company by the manual or facsimile signature of the then present Chairman or
Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors or President or Vice President of the
Company under its corporate seal reproduced thereon, attested to by the manual
or facsimile signature of the then present Secretary or Assistant Secretary of
the Company. Warrant Certificates shall be dated the date of execution by the
Company upon initial issuance, division, exchange, substitution or transfer.
5. Restriction On Transfer of Warrants.
The Holder of a Warrant Certificate, by acceptance thereof, covenants
and agrees that the Warrants may not be sold, transferred, assigned,
hypothecated or otherwise disposed of, in whole or in part, for a period of one
(1) year from the Effective Date of the Public Offering, except (a) to officers
of the Representative or to officers and partners of the other Underwriters or
Selected Dealers participating in the Public offering; (b) by will; or (c) by
operation of law.
6. Exercise Price.
6.1 Initial and Adjusted Exercise Prices.
The initial exercise price of each Common Stock Representative Warrant
shall be $____ per share (120% of the public offering price) . The initial
exercise price of each Warrant Representative Warrant shall be $____ per
Underlying Warrant (120% of the public offering price). The initial exercise
price of each Underlying Warrant shall be $____ per share (120% of the public
offering price). The adjusted exercise price shall be the price which shall
result from time to time from any and all adjustments of the initial exercise
price in accordance with the provisions of Article 8 hereof.
4
5
The Warrant Representative Warrants and the Underlying Warrants are exercisable
during the five (5) year period commencing on the Effective Date.
6.2 Exercise Price.
The term "Exercise Price" herein shall mean the initial exercise price
or the adjusted exercise price, depending upon the context.
7. Registration Rights.
7.1 Registration Under the Securities Act of 1933.
The Warrants, the Shares, the Underlying Warrants and the shares of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Underlying Warrants (collectively the
"Registrable Securities") have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the "Act"). Upon exercise, in part or in whole, of the Warrants,
certificates representing the Shares, the Underlying Warrants and/or the shares
of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Underlying Warrants shall bear the
following legend in the event there is no current registration statement
effective with the Commission at such time as to such securities:
The securities represented by this certificate may not be offered or
sold except pursuant to (i) an effective registration statement under
the Act, (ii) to the extent applicable, Rule 144 under the Act (or any
similar rule under such Act relating to the disposition of securities),
or (iii) an opinion of counsel, if such opinion shall be reasonably
satisfactory to counsel to the issuer, that an exemption from
registration under such Act and applicable state securities laws is
available.
7.2 Piggyback Registration.
If, at any time commencing after the Effective Date of the Public
Offering and expiring seven (7) years thereafter, the Company prepares and files
a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement, or a new Registration
Statement, under the Act, or files a Notification on Form 1-A or otherwise
registers securities under the Act, or files a similar disclosure document with
the Commission (collectively the "Registration Documents") as to any of its
securities under the Act (other than under a Registration Statement pursuant to
Form S-8), it will give written notice by registered mail, at least thirty (30)
days prior to the filing of each such Registration Document, to the
Representative and to all other Holders of the Registrable Securities of its
intention to do so. If the Representative and/or other Holders of the
Registrable Securities notify the Company within twenty (20) days after receipt
of any such notice of its or their desire to include any such Registrable
Securities in such proposed Registration Documents, the Company shall afford the
Representative and such Holders of such Registrable Securities the opportunity
to have any Registrable Securities registered under such Registration Documents
or any other available Registration Document.
5
6
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7.2, the Company shall
have the right at any time after it shall have given written notice pursuant to
this Section 7.2 (irrespective of whether a written request for inclusion of any
such securities shall have been made) to elect not to file any such proposed
registration statement, or to withdraw the same after the filing but prior to
the effective date thereof.
7.3 Demand Registration.
(a) At any time commencing one (1) year after the Effective Date of the
Public Offering, and expiring four (4) years thereafter, the Holders of
Registrable Securities representing more than 50% of such securities at that
time outstanding shall have the right (which right is in addition to the
registration rights under Section 7.2 hereof), exercisable by written notice to
the Company, to have the Company prepare and file with the Commission at the
sole expense of the Company, on one occasion, a registration statement and/or
such other documents, including a prospectus, and/or any other appropriate
disclosure document as may be reasonably necessary in the opinion of both
counsel for the Company and counsel for the Representative and Holders, in order
to comply with the provisions of the Act, so as to permit a public offering and
sale of their respective Registrable Securities for nine (9) consecutive months
(or such longer period of time as permitted by the Act) by such Holders and any
other Holders of any of the Registrable Securities who notify the Company within
ten (10) days after being given notice from the Company of such request (Demand
Registration Statement). A Demand Registration shall not be counted as a Demand
Registration hereunder until such Demand Registration has been declared
effective by the SEC and maintained continuously effective for a period of at
least nine months or such shorter period when all Registrable Securities
included therein have been sold in accordance with such Demand Registration,
provided that a Demand Registration shall be counted as a Demand Registration
hereunder if the Company ceases its efforts in respect of such Demand
Registration at the request of the majority Holders making the demand for a
reason other than a material and adverse change in the business, assets,
prospects or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company and its
subsidiaries taken as a whole.
(b) The Company covenants and agrees to give written notice of any
registration request under this Section 7.3 by the majority of the Holders to
all other registered Holders of any of the Registrable Securities within ten
(10) days from the date of the receipt of any such registration request.
(c) In addition to the registration rights under Section 7.2 and
subsection (a) of this Section 7.3. at any time commencing one (1) year after
the Effective Date of the Public Offering, and expiring four (4) years
thereafter, the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities shall have
the right, exercisable by written request to the Company, to have the Company
prepare and file, on one occasion, with the Commission a registration statement
or any other appropriate disclosure document so as to permit a public offering
and sale for nine (9) consecutive months (or such longer period of time as
permitted by the Act) by any such Holder
6
7
of Registrable Securities; provided, however, that the provisions of Section
7.4(b) hereof shall not apply to any such registration request and registration
and all costs incident thereto shall be at the expense of the Holder or Holders
participating in the offering pro-rata.
(d) Any written request by the Holders made pursuant to this Section
7.3 shall:
(i) specify the number of Registrable Securities which the
Holders intend to offer and sell and the minimum price at which the
Holders intend to offer and sell such securities;
(ii) state the intention of the Holders to offer such
securities for sale;
(iii) describe the intended method of distribution of such
securities; and
(iv) contain an undertaking on the part of the Holders to
provide all such information and materials concerning the Holders and
take all such action as may be reasonably required to permit the
Company to comply with all applicable requirements of the Commission
and to obtain acceleration of the effective date of the registration
statement.
(e) In the event the Company receives from the Holders of any
Registrable Securities representing more than 50% of such securities at that
time outstanding, a request that the Company effect a registration on Form S-3
with respect to the Registrable Securities and if Form S-3 is available for such
offering, the Company shall, as soon as practicable, effect such registration as
would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of the Registrable
Securities as are specified in the request. All expenses incurred in connection
with a registration requested pursuant to this Section shall be borne by the
Company. Registrations effected pursuant to this Section 7.3 (e) shall not be
counted as registrations pursuant to Section 7.3 (a) and 7.3 (c) hereof.
7.4 Covenants of the Company With Respect to Registration.
In connection with any registration under Section 7.2 or 7.3 hereof,
the Company covenants and agrees as follows:
(a) The Company shall use its best efforts to file a registration
statement within forty-five (45) days of receipt of any demand pursuant to
Section 7.3, and shall use its best efforts to have any such registration
statement declared effective at the earliest practicable time. The Company will
promptly notify each seller of such Registrable Securities and confirm such
advice in writing, (i) when such registration statement becomes effective, (ii)
when any post-effective amendment to such registration statement becomes
effective and (iii) of any request by the SEC for any amendment or supplement to
such registration statement or any prospectus relating thereto or for additional
information.
7
8
The Company shall furnish to each seller of such Registrable Securities
such number of copies of such registration statement and of each such amendment
and supplement thereto (in each case including each preliminary prospectus and
summary prospectus) in conformity with the requirements of the Act, and such
other documents as such seller may reasonably request in order to facilitate the
disposition of the Registrable Securities by such seller.
(b) The Company shall pay all costs (excluding transfer taxes, if any,
and fees and expenses of Holder's counsel and the Holder's pro-rata portion of
the selling discount or commissions), fees and expenses in connection with all
registration statements filed pursuant to Sections 7.2 and 7.3(a) hereof
including, without limitation, the Company's legal and accounting fees, printing
expenses, blue sky fees and expenses. The Holder will pay all costs, fees and
expenses in connection with any registration statement filed pursuant to Section
7.3(c). If the Company shall fail to comply with the provisions of Section
7.3(a), the Company shall, in addition to any other equitable or other relief
available to the Holder, be liable for any or all special and consequential
damages sustained by the Holder requesting registration of their Registrable
Securities.
(c) The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and
supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection
therewith as may be reasonably necessary to keep such registration statement
effective for at least nine months (or such longer period as permitted by the
Act), and to comply with the provisions of the Act with respect to the
disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement during such
period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or
sellers of Registrable Securities set forth in such registration statement. If
at any time the SEC should institute or threaten to institute any proceedings
for the purpose of issuing a stop order suspending the effectiveness of any such
registration statement, the Company will promptly notify each seller of such
Registrable Securities and will use all reasonable efforts to prevent the
issuance of any such stop order or to obtain the withdrawal thereof as soon as
possible. The Company will use its good faith reasonable efforts and take all
reasonably necessary action which may be required in qualifying or registering
the Registrable Securities included in a registration statement for offering and
sale under the securities or blue sky laws of such states as reasonably are
required by the Holder, provided that the Company shall not be obligated to
execute or file any general consent to service of process or to qualify as a
foreign corporation to do business under the laws of any such jurisdiction. The
Company shall use its good faith reasonable efforts to cause such Registrable
Securities covered by such registration statement to be registered with or
approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities of the United States
or any State thereof as may be reasonably necessary to enable the seller or
sellers thereof to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities.
(d) The Company shall indemnify the Holder of the Registrable
Securities to be sold pursuant to any registration statement and each person, if
any, who controls such Holders within
8
9
the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 (a) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act"). against all loss, claim,
damage, expense or liability (including all expenses reasonably incurred in
investigating, preparing or defending against any claim whatsoever) to which any
of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, arising
from such registration statement but only to the same extent and with the same
effect as the provisions pursuant to which the Company has agreed to indemnify
the Representative as contained in the Underwriting Agreement.
(e) If requested by the Company prior to the filing of any registration
statement covering the Registrable Securities, each of the Holder of the
Registrable Securities to be sold pursuant to a registration statement, and
their successors and assigns, shall severally, and not jointly, indemnify the
Company, its officers and directors and each person, if any, who controls the
Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 (a) of the
Exchange Act, against all loss, claim, damage or expense or liability (including
all expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending
against any claim whatsoever) to which they may become subject under the Act,
the Exchange Act or otherwise, arising from written information furnished by
such Holder, or their successors or assigns, for specific inclusion in such
registration statement to the same extent and with the same effect as the
provisions contained in the Underwriting Agreement pursuant to which the
Representative has agreed to indemnify the Company, except that the maximum
amount which may be recovered from each Holder pursuant to this paragraph or
otherwise shall be limited to the amount of net proceeds received by the Holder
from the sale of the Registrable Securities.
(f) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as requiring
the Holder to exercise their Warrants or Underlying Warrants prior to the filing
of any registration statement or the effectiveness thereof.
(g) The Company shall not permit the inclusion of any securities other
than the Registrable Securities to be included in any registration statement
filed pursuant to Section 7.3 hereof without the prior written consent of the
Holders of the Registrable Securities representing a majority of such
securities.
(h) The Company shall furnish to each Holder participating in the
offering and to each underwriter, if any, a signed counterpart, addressed to
such Holder or underwriter, of (i) an opinion of counsel to the Company, dated
the effective date of such registration statement (and, if such registration
includes an underwritten public offering, an opinion dated the date of the
closing under the underwriting agreement) , and (ii) a "cold comfort" letter
dated the effective date of such registration statement (and, if such
registration includes an underwritten public offering, a letter dated the date
of the closing under the underwriting agreement) signed by the independent
public accountants who have issued a report on the Company's financial
statements included in such registration statement, in each case covering
substantially the same matters with respect to such registration statement (and
the prospectus included therein) and, in the case of such accountants' letter,
with respect to events subsequent to the date of such financial
9
10
statements, as are customarily covered in opinions of issuer's counsel and in
accountants' letters delivered to underwriters in underwritten public offerings
of securities.
(i) The Company shall deliver promptly to each Holder participating in
the offering requesting the correspondence and memoranda described below and the
managing underwriter copies of all correspondence between the Commission and the
Company, its counsel or auditors and all memoranda relating to discussions with
the Commission or its staff with respect to the registration statement and
permit each Holder and underwriter to do such investigation, upon reasonable
advance notice, with respect to information contained in or omitted from the
registration statement as it deems reasonably necessary to comply with
applicable securities laws or rules of the National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc. ("NASD"). Such investigation shall include access to books,
records and properties and opportunities to discuss the business of the Company
with its officers and independent auditors, all to such reasonable extent and at
such reasonable times and as often as any such Holder shall reasonably request.
(j) With respect to a registration statement filed pursuant to Section
7.3, the Company, if requested, shall enter into an underwriting agreement with
the managing underwriter, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, selected for
such underwriting by Holders holding a majority of the Registrable Securities
requested to be included in such underwriting. Such agreement shall be
satisfactory in form and substance to the Company, each Holder and such managing
underwriters, and shall contain such representations, warranties and covenants
by the Company and such other terms as are customarily contained in agreements
of that type used by the managing underwriter. The Holders, if required by the
underwriter to be parties to any underwriting agreement relating to an
underwritten sale of their Registrable Securities, may, at their option, require
that any or all the representations, warranties and covenants of the Company to
or for the benefit of such underwriters shall also be made to and for the
benefit of such Holders. Such Holders shall not be required to make any
representations or warranties to or agreements with the Company or the
underwriters except as they may relate to such Holders and their intended
methods of distribution.
(k) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 7.2 or paragraph 7.3 of
this Agreement, the Company shall not be required to effect or cause the
registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to paragraph 7.2 or paragraph
7.3 hereof if, within thirty (30) days after its receipt of a request to
register such Registrable Securities (i) counsel for the Company delivers an
opinion to the Holders requesting registration of such Registrable Securities,
in form and substance satisfactory to counsel to such Holder, to the effect that
the entire number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by such Holder
may otherwise be sold, in the manner proposed by such Holder, without
registration under the Securities Act, or (ii) the SEC shall have issued a
no-action position, in form and substance satisfactory to counsel for the Holder
requesting registration of such Registrable Securities, to the effect that the
entire number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by such Holder may
be sold by it, in the manner proposed by such Holder, without registration under
the Securities Act.
10
11
(l) After completion of the Public Offering, the Company shall not,
directly or indirectly, enter into any merger, business combination or
consolidation in which (a) the Company shall not be the surviving corporation
and (b) the stockholders of the Company are to receive, in whole or in part,
capital stock or other securities of the surviving corporation, unless the
surviving corporation shall, prior to such merger, business combination or
consolidation, agree in writing to assume the obligations of the Company under
this Agreement, and for that purpose references hereunder to "Registrable
Securities" shall be deemed to include the securities which the Holders would be
entitled to receive in exchange for Registrable Securities under any such
merger, business combination or consolidation, provided that to the extent such
securities to be received are convertible into shares of Common Stock of the
issuer thereof, then any such shares of Common Stock as are issued or issuable
upon conversion of said convertible securities shall also be included within the
definition of "Registrable Securities".
8. Adjustments to Exercise Price and Number of Securities.
8.1 Adjustment for Dividends, Subdivisions, Combinations or
Reclassification.
In case the Company shall (a) pay a dividend or make a distribution in
shares of its capital stock (whether shares of Common Stock or of capital stock
of any other class), (b) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
greater number of shares, (c) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock
into a smaller number of shares, or (d) issue by reclassification of its shares
of Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company; then, and in each
such case, the per share Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Securities in
effect immediately prior to such action shall be adjusted so that the Holder of
this Warrant thereafter upon the exercise hereof shall be entitled to receive
the number and kind of shares of the Company which such Holder would have owned
immediately following such action had this warrant been exercised immediately
prior thereto. An adjustment made pursuant to this Section shall become
effective immediately after the record date in the case of a dividend or
distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in
the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification. If, as a result of
an adjustment made pursuant to this Section, the Holder of this Warrant shall
become entitled to receive shares of two or more classes of capital stock of the
Company, the Board of Directors of the Company (whose determination shall be
conclusive) shall determine the allocation of the adjusted Exercise Price
between or among shares of such class of capital stock.
Immediately upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to this
Section, the Company shall send written notice thereof to the Holder of Warrant
Certificates (by first class mail, postage prepaid), which notice shall state
the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment, and any increase or decrease
in the number of Warrant Securities to be acquired upon exercise of the
Warrants, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the
facts upon which such calculation is based.
8.2 Adjustment For Reorganization, Merger or Consolidation.
11
12
In case of any reorganization of the Company or consolidation of the
Company with, or merger of the Company with, or merger of the Company into,
another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger which does not result
in any reclassification or change of the outstanding Common Stock), the
corporation formed by such consolidation or merger shall execute and deliver to
the Holder a supplemental Warrant agreement providing that the Holder of each
Warrant then outstanding or to be outstanding shall have the right thereafter
(until the expiration of such Warrant) to receive, upon exercise of such
Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and
property receivable upon such consolidation or merger, by a holder of the number
of shares of Common Stock of the Company for which such Warrant might have been
exercised immediately prior to such reorganization, consolidation, merger,
conveyance, sale or transfer. Such supplemental Warrant agreement shall provide
for adjustments which shall be identical to the adjustments provided in Section
8.1 and such registration rights and other rights as provided in this Agreement.
The Company shall not effect any such consolidation, merger, or similar
transaction as contemplated by this paragraph, unless prior to or simultaneously
with the consummation thereof, the successor corporation (if other than the
Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger or the corporation
purchasing, receiving, or leasing such assets or other appropriate corporation
or entity shall assume, by written instrument executed and delivered to the
Holders, the obligation to deliver to the Holders, such shares of stock,
securities, or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such
holders may be entitled to purchase, and to perform the other obligations of the
Company under this Agreement. The above provision of this Subsection shall
similarly apply to successive consolidations or successively whenever any event
listed above shall occur.
8.3 Dividends and Other Distributions.
In the event that the Company shall at any time prior to the exercise
of all of the Warrants and/or Underlying Warrants distribute to its stockholders
any assets, property, rights, evidences of indebtedness, securities (other than
a distribution made as a cash dividend payable out of earnings or out of any
earned surplus legally available for dividends under the laws of the
jurisdictions of incorporation of the Company), whether issued by the Company or
by another, the Holders of the unexercised Warrants shall thereafter be
entitled, in addition to the shares of Common Stock or other securities and
property receivable upon the exercise thereof, to receive, upon the exercise of
such Warrants, the same property, assets, rights, evidences of indebtedness,
securities or any other thing of value that they would have been entitled to
receive at the time of such distribution as if the Warrants had been exercised
immediately prior to such distribution. At the time of any such distribution,
the Company shall make appropriate reserves to ensure the timely performance of
the provisions of this subsection or an adjustment to the Exercise Price, which
shall be effective as of the day following the record date for such
distribution.
8.4 Adjustment in Number of Securities.
Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to the provisions
of this Article 8,
12
13
the number of securities issuable upon the exercise of each Warrant and/or
Underlying Warrant shall be adjusted to the nearest full amount by multiplying a
number equal to the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such
adjustment by the number of securities issuable upon exercise of the Warrants
and/or the Underlying Warrants immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing
the product so obtained by the adjusted Exercise Price.
8.5 No Adjustment of Exercise Price in Certain Cases.
No adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made if the amount of said
adjustment shall be less than 5 cents ($.05) per Share, provided, however, that
in such case any adjustment that would otherwise be required then 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 so carried
forward, shall amount to at least 5 cents ($.05) per Share.
8.6 Accountant's Certificate of Adjustment.
In each case of an adjustment or readjustment of the Exercise Price or
the number of any securities issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and/or
Underlying Warrants, the Company, at its expense, shall cause independent
certified public accountants of recognized standing selected by the Company (who
may be the independent certified public accountants then auditing the books of
the Company) to compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance herewith
and prepare a certificate showing such adjustment or readjustment, and shall
mail such certificate, by first class mail, postage prepaid, to any Holder of
the Warrants and/or Underlying Warrants at the Holder's address as shown on the
Company's books. The certificate shall set forth such adjustment or
readjustment, showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or
readjustment is based including, but not limited to, a statement of (i) the
Exercise Price at the time in effect, and (ii) the number of additional
securities and the type and amount, if any, of other property which at the time
would be received upon exercise of the Warrants and/or Underlying Warrants.
8.7 Adjustment of Underlying Warrant Exercise Price.
With respect to any of the Underlying Warrants whether or not the
Underlying Warrants have been exercised (or are exercisable) and whether or not
the Underlying Warrants are issued and outstanding, the Underlying Warrant
exercise price and the number of shares of Common Stock underlying such
Underlying Warrants shall be automatically adjusted in accordance with the
Warrant Agreement between the Company and the Company's transfer agent, upon
occurrence of any of the events relating to adjustments described therein.
Thereafter, the Underlying Warrants shall be exercisable at such adjusted
Underlying Warrant exercise price for such adjusted number of underlying shares
of Common Stock or other securities, properties or rights.
9. Exchange and Replacement of Warrant Certificates.
13
14
Each Warrant Certificate is exchangeable without expense, upon the
surrender thereof by the registered Holder at the principal executive office of
the Company, for a new Warrant Certificate of like tenor and date representing
in the aggregate the right to purchase the same number of securities in such
denominations as shall be designated by the Holder thereof at the time of such
surrender.
Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it
of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Warrant Certificate, and,
in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably
satisfactory to it, and reimbursement to the Company of all reasonable expenses
incidental thereto, and upon surrender and cancellation of the Warrants, if
mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant Certificate of like
tenor, in lieu thereof.
10. Elimination of Fractional Interest.
The Company shall not be required to issue certificates representing
fractions of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of the Warrants and/or
Underlying Warrants, nor shall it be required to issue script or pay cash in
lieu of fractional interests, it being the intent of the parties that all
fractional interests may be eliminated, at the Company's option, by rounding any
fraction up to the nearest whole number of shares of Common Stock or other
securities, properties or rights, or in lieu thereof paying cash equal to such
fractional interest multiplied by the current value of a share of Common Stock.
11. Reservation and Listing.
The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its
authorized shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon the
exercise of the Warrants and the Underlying Warrants, such number of shares of
Common Stock or other securities, properties or rights as shall be issuable upon
the exercise thereof. The Company covenants and agrees that, upon exercise of
the Warrants and/or the Underlying Warrants, and payment of the Exercise Price
therefor, all shares of Common Stock and other securities issuable upon such
exercise shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid, non-assessable and not
subject to the preemptive rights of any stockholder. As long as the Warrants
and/or Underlying Warrants shall be outstanding, the Company shall use its best
efforts to cause all shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the
Warrants and the Underlying Warrants to be listed and quoted (subject to
official notice of issuance) on all securities Exchanges and Systems on which
the Common Stock and/or the Public Warrants may then be listed and/or quoted,
including NASDAQ.
12. Notices to Warrant Holders.
Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as conferring
upon the Holders of the Warrants and/or Underlying Warrants the right to vote or
to consent or to receive notice as a
14
15
stockholder in respect of any meetings of stockholders, for the election of
directors or any other matter, or as having any rights whatsoever as a
stockholder of the Company. If, however, at any time prior to the expiration of
the warrants and/or Underlying Warrants and their exercise, any of the following
events shall occur:
(a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its
shares of Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a
dividend or distribution payable otherwise than in cash, or a cash
dividend or distribution payable otherwise than out of current or
retained earnings, as indicated by the accounting treatment of such
dividend or distribution on the books of the Company; or
(b) the Company shall offer to all the holders of its Common
Stock any additional shares of capital stock of the Company or
securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of capital stock
of the Company, or any option, right or warrant to subscribe therefor;
or
(c) a dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company
(other than in connection with a consolidation or merger) or a sale of
all or substantially all of its property, assets and business as an
entirety shall be proposed;
then, in any one or more of said events, the Company shall give written notice
of such event at least fifteen (15) days prior to the date fixed as a record
date of the date of closing the transfer books for the determination of the
stockholders entitled to such dividend, distribution, convertible or
exchangeable securities or subscription rights, or entitled to vote on such
proposed dissolution, liquidation, winding up or sale. Such notices shall
specify such record date or the date of closing the transfer books, as the case
may be. Failure to give such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the
validity of any action taken in connection with the declaration or payment of
any such dividend, or the issuance of any convertible or exchangeable
securities, or subscription rights, options or warrants, or any proposed
dissolution, liquidation, winding up or sale.
13. Underlying Warrants.
The form of the certificate representing the Underlying Warrants (and
the form of election to purchase shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of the
Underlying Warrants and the form of assignment printed on the reverse thereof)
shall be substantially as set forth in the exhibits to the Warrant Agreement.
Subject to the terms of this Agreement, one (1) Underlying Warrant shall
evidence the right to initially purchase one (1) fully-paid and non-assessable
share of Common Stock at an initial purchase price of $120% of the public
offering price during the five (5) year period commencing on the Effective Date
of the Registration Statement, at which time the Underlying Warrants, unless the
exercise period has been extended, shall expire. The exercise price of the
Underlying Warrants and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
exercise of
15
16
the Underlying Warrants are subject to adjustment, whether or not the Warrants
have been exercised and the Underlying Warrants have been issued, in the manner
and upon the occurrence of the events set forth in the Warrant Agreement, which
is hereby incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof as if set
forth in its entirety herein. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement and
upon issuance of the Underlying Warrants, each registered holder of such
Underlying Warrant shall have the right to purchase from the Company (and the
Company shall issue to such registered holders) up to the number of fully-paid
and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (subject to adjustment as provided in
the Warrant Agreement) set forth in such Warrant Certificate, free and clear of
all preemptive rights of stockholders, provided that such registered Holder
complies with the terms governing exercise of the Underlying Warrant set forth
in the Warrant Agreement, and pays the applicable exercise price, determined in
accordance with the terms of the Warrant Agreement. Upon exercise of the
Underlying Warrants, the Company shall forthwith issue to the registered Holder
of any such Underlying Warrant in his name or in such name as may be directed by
him, certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock so purchased. Except
as otherwise provided herein and in this Agreement, the Underlying Warrants
shall be governed in all respects by the terms of the Warrant Agreement. The
Underlying Warrants shall be transferable in the manner provided in the Warrant
Agreement, and upon any such transfer, a new Underlying Warrant certificate
shall be issued promptly to the transferee. The Company covenants to send to
each Holder, irrespective of whether or not the Warrants have been exercised,
any and all notices required by the Warrant Agreement to be sent to holders of
Underlying Warrants.
14. Notices.
All notices, requests, consents and other communications hereunder
shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when personally
delivered, or mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested:

Securities, to the address of such Holder as shown on the books of the
Company; or
