-3-
5. Delivery
of Warrant Shares.
(a) To
effect
exercises hereunder, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender
this Warrant unless the aggregate Warrant Shares represented by this Warrant
is
being exercised. Upon delivery of the Exercise Notice (in the form attached
hereto) to the Company (with the attached Warrant Shares Exercise Log) at its
address for notice set forth herein, together with payment of the Exercise
Price
multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares that the Holder intends to purchase
hereunder, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than three Trading
Days after the Date of Exercise (as defined herein)) issue and deliver to the
Holder, a certificate for the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, which,
unless otherwise required by the Purchase Agreement, shall be free of
restrictive legends. The Company shall, upon request of the Holder and
subsequent to the date on which a registration statement covering the resale
of
the Warrant Shares has been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange
Commission, use its reasonable best efforts to deliver Warrant Shares hereunder
electronically through the Depository Trust Corporation or another established
clearing corporation performing similar functions, if available, provided,
that,
the Company may, but will not be required to change its transfer agent if its
current transfer agent cannot deliver Warrant Shares electronically through
the
Depository Trust Corporation. A "Date
of Exercise"
means
the date on which the Holder shall have delivered to the Company: (i) the
Exercise Notice (with the Warrant Exercise Log attached to it), appropriately
completed and duly signed and (ii) payment of the Exercise Price for the number
of Warrant Shares so indicated by the Holder to be purchased.
(b) If
by the
third Trading Day after a Date of Exercise the Company fails to deliver the
required number of Warrant Shares in the manner required pursuant to Section
5(a), then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.
(c) If
by the
third Trading Day after a Date of Exercise the Company fails to deliver the
required number of Warrant Shares in the manner required pursuant to Section
5(a), and if after such third Trading Day and prior to the receipt of such
Warrant Shares, the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or
otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the
Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such
exercise (a "Buy-In"),
then
the Company shall (1) pay in cash to the Holder the amount by which (x) the
Holder's total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for
the
shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by
multiplying (A) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required
to
deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue by (B) the
closing bid price of the Common Stock on the Date of Exercise and (2) at the
option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent
number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored or deliver
to
the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued
had
the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations
hereunder. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the
amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In.
(d) The
Company's obligations to issue and deliver Warrant Shares in accordance with
the
terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or
inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect
to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or
any
action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation
or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder or any other
Person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation
of
law by the Holder or any other Person, and irrespective of any other
circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to
the
Holder in connection with the issuance of Warrant Shares. Nothing herein shall
limit a Xxxxxx's right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder,
at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific
performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company's failure
to
timely deliver certificates representing Warrant Shares upon exercise of the
Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
-4-
6. Charges,
Taxes and Expenses.
Issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant shall
be
made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax, withholding
tax, transfer agent fee or other incidental tax or expense in respect of the
issuance of such certificates, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid
by
the Company; 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
registration of any certificates for Warrant Shares or Warrants in a name other
than that of the Holder. The Holder shall be responsible for all other tax
liability that may arise as a result of holding or transferring this Warrant
or
receiving Warrant Shares or Alternate Consideration upon exercise
hereof.
7. Replacement
of Warrant.
If this
Warrant is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or
cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation
hereof, or in lieu of and substitution for this Warrant, a New Warrant, but
only
upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss,
theft or destruction and customary and reasonable indemnity (which shall not
include a surety bond), if requested. Applicants for a New Warrant under such
circumstances shall also comply with such other reasonable regulations and
procedures and pay such other reasonable third-party costs as the Company may
prescribe. If a New Warrant is requested as a result of a mutilation of this
Warrant, then the Holder shall deliver such mutilated Warrant to the Company
as
a condition precedent to the Company’s obligation to issue the New
Warrant.
8. Reservation
of Warrant Shares.
The
Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out
of
the aggregate of its authorized but unissued and otherwise unreserved Common
Stock, solely for the purpose of enabling it to issue Warrant Shares upon
exercise of this Warrant as herein provided, the number of Warrant Shares which
are then issuable and deliverable upon the exercise of this entire Warrant,
free
from preemptive rights or any other contingent purchase rights of Persons other
than the Holder (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section
9). The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares so issuable and deliverable
shall, upon issuance and the payment of the applicable Exercise Price in
accordance with the terms hereof, be duly and validly authorized, issued and
fully paid and nonassessable.
9. Certain
Adjustments.
The
Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section
9.
(a) Stock
Dividends and Splits.
If the
Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) pays a stock
dividend on its Common Stock or otherwise makes a distribution on any class
of
capital stock that is payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, or (iii)
combines outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares,
then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction
of
which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any
adjustment made pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph shall become effective
immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled
to receive such dividend or distribution, and any adjustment pursuant to clause
(ii) or (iii) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the
effective date of such subdivision or combination.
-5-
(b) Fundamental
Transactions.
If, at
any time while this Warrant is outstanding there is a Fundamental Transaction,
then the Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon exercise of
this Warrant, the same amount and kind of securities, cash or property as it
would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental
Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction,
the holder of the number of Warrant Shares then issuable upon exercise in full
of this Warrant (the "Alternate
Consideration").
For
purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall
be
appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the
amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common
Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the
Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner
reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate
Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the
securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then
the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration
it
receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental
Transaction. At the Holder's option and request, any successor to the Company
or
surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall issue to the Holder
a new
warrant substantially in the form of this Warrant and consistent with the
foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holder's right to purchase the Alternate
Consideration for the aggregate Exercise Price upon exercise thereof. The terms
of any agreement pursuant to which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall
include terms requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with
the provisions of this paragraph (b) and insuring that the Warrant (or any
such
replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction
analogous to a Fundamental Transaction.
(c) Subsequent
Equity Sales.
(i)
If the
Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, shall issue shares
of
Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents entitling any Person to acquire shares
of Common Stock, at a price per share less than the then current Exercise Price
(if the holder of the Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalent so issued shall
at
any time, whether by operation of purchase price adjustments, reset provisions,
floating conversion, exercise or exchange prices or otherwise, or due to
warrants, options or rights issued in connection with such issuance, be entitled
to receive shares of Common Stock at a price less than the Exercise Price,
such
issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Exercise Price),
then, the Exercise
Price
shall be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number
of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of such
shares of Common Stock or such Common Stock Equivalents plus the number of
shares of Common Stock which the offering price for such shares of Common Stock
or Common Stock Equivalents would purchase at the Exercise Price, and the
denominator of which shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to such issuance plus the number of shares of
Common Stock so issued or issuable. Such adjustment shall be made whenever
such
Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are issued. The Company shall notify
the Holder in writing, no later than the third Trading Day following the
issuance of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalent subject to this section,
indicating therein the applicable issuance price, or applicable reset price,
exchange price, conversion price and other pricing terms.
-6-
(ii)
For
purposes of this subsection 9(c), the following subsections (c)(ii)(l) to
(c)(ii)(6) shall also be applicable:
(1) Issuance
of Rights or Options.
In case
at any time the Company shall in any manner grant (directly and not by
assumption in a merger or otherwise) any warrants or other rights to subscribe
for or to purchase, or any options for the purchase of, Common Stock or any
stock or security convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock (such
warrants, rights or options being called “Options”
and such
convertible or exchangeable stock or securities being called “Convertible
Securities”)
whether
or not such Options or the right to convert or exchange any such Convertible
Securities are immediately exercisable, and the price per share for which Common
Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon the conversion
or
exchange of such Convertible Securities (determined by dividing (i) the sum
(which sum shall constitute the applicable consideration) of (x) the total
amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for
the
granting of such Options, plus (y) the aggregate amount of additional
consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise of all such Options,
plus
(z), in the case of such Options which relate to Convertible Securities, the
aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issue
or
sale of such Convertible Securities and upon the conversion or exchange thereof,
by (ii) the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
exercise of such Options or upon the conversion or exchange of all such
Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options) shall be
less
than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the time of the granting
of such Options, then the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
the exercise of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of the total amount
of such Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options shall
be deemed to have been issued for such price per share as of the date of
granting of such Options or the issuance of such Convertible Securities and
thereafter shall be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of adjusting the
Exercise Price. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 9(c)(ii)(3), no
adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issue of such
Common Stock or of such Convertible Securities upon exercise of such Options
or
upon the actual issue of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of such
Convertible Securities.
(2) Issuance
of Convertible Securities.
In case
the Company shall in any manner issue (directly and not by assumption in a
merger or otherwise) or sell any Convertible Securities, whether or not the
rights to exchange or convert any such Convertible Securities are immediately
exercisable, and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon
such conversion or exchange (determined by dividing (i) the sum (which sum
shall
constitute the applicable consideration) of (x) the total amount received or
receivable by the Company as consideration for the issue or sale of such
Convertible Securities, plus (y) the aggregate amount of additional
consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the conversion or exchange
thereof, by (ii) the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities) shall be less than
the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the time of such issue or
sale, then the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities shall be deemed to
have been issued for such price per share as of the date of the issue or sale
of
such Convertible Securities and thereafter shall be deemed to be outstanding
for
purposes of adjusting the Exercise Price, provided that (a) except as otherwise
provided in subsection 9(c)(ii)(3), no adjustment of the Exercise Price shall
be
made upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange
of such Convertible Securities and (b) no further adjustment of the Exercise
Price shall be made by reason of the issue or sale of Convertible Securities
upon exercise of any Options to purchase any such Convertible Securities for
which adjustments of the Exercise Price have been made pursuant to the other
provisions of subsection 9(c).
-7-
(3) Change
in Option Price or Conversion Rate.
Upon
the happening of any of the following events, namely, if the purchase price
provided for in any Option referred to in subsection 9(c)(ii)(l) hereof, the
additional consideration, if any, payable upon the conversion or exchange of
any
Convertible Securities referred to in subsections 9(c)(ii)(l) or 9(c)(ii)(2),
or
the rate at which Convertible Securities referred to in subsections 9(c)(ii)(l)
or 9(c)(ii)(2) are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock shall
change at any time (including, but not limited to, changes under or by reason
of
provisions designed to protect against dilution), the Exercise Price in effect
at the time of such event shall forthwith be readjusted to the Exercise Price
which would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible
Securities still outstanding provided for such changed purchase price,
additional consideration or conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time
initially granted, issued or sold. On the termination of any Option for which
any adjustment was made pursuant to this subsection 9(c) or any right to convert
or exchange Convertible Securities for which any adjustment was made pursuant
to
this subsection 9(c) (including without limitation upon the redemption or
purchase for consideration of such Convertible Securities by the Company),
the
Exercise Price then in effect hereunder shall forthwith be changed to the
Exercise Price which would have been in effect at the time of such termination
had such Option or Convertible Securities, to the extent outstanding immediately
prior to such termination, never been issued.
(4) Stock
Dividends.
Subject
to the provisions of this subsection 9(c), in case the Company shall declare
a
dividend or make any other distribution upon any stock of the Company (other
than the Common Stock) payable in Common Stock, Options or Convertible
Securities, then any Common Stock, Options 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.
(5) Consideration
for Stock.
In case
any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities shall be issued
or
sold for cash, the consideration received therefor shall be deemed to be the
net
amount received by the Company therefor, after deduction therefrom of any
expenses incurred or any underwriting commissions or concessions paid or allowed
by the Company in connection therewith. In case any shares of Common Stock,
Options or Convertible Securities shall be issued or sold for a consideration
other than cash, the amount of the consideration other than cash received by
the
Company shall be deemed to be the fair value of such consideration as determined
in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, after deduction of
any
expenses incurred or any underwriting commissions or concessions paid or allowed
by the Company in connection therewith. In case any Options shall be issued
in
connection with the issue and sale of other securities of the Company, together
comprising one integral transaction in which no specific consideration is
allocated to such Options by the parties thereto, such Options shall be deemed
to have been issued for such consideration as determined in good faith by the
Board of Directors of the Company. If Common Stock, Options or Convertible
Securities shall be issued or sold by the Company and, in connection therewith,
other Options or Convertible Securities (the “Additional
Rights”)
are
issued, then the consideration received or deemed to be received by the Company
shall be reduced by the fair market value of the Additional Rights (as
determined using a method mutually agreed to by the Company and the Holder).
The
Board of Directors of the Company shall respond promptly, in writing, to an
inquiry by the Holders as to the fair market value of the Additional Rights.
In
the event that the Board of Directors of the Company and the Holders are unable
to agree upon the fair market value of the Additional Rights, the Company and
the Holders shall jointly select an appraiser, who is experienced in such
matters. The decision of such appraiser shall be final and conclusive, and
the
cost of such appraiser shall be borne evenly by the Company and the
Holder.
-8-
(6) Record
Date.
In case
the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the
purpose of entitling them (i) to receive a dividend or other distribution
payable in Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities or (ii) to subscribe
for or purchase Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, then such
record date shall be deemed to be the date of the issue or sale of the shares
of
Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such
dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting
of
such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may be.
(iii)
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment will be made under this paragraph
(c) in respect of: (1) the issuance of securities upon the exercise or
conversion of any Common Stock Equivalents issued by the Company prior to the
Original Issue Date of this Warrant (but will apply to any amendments,
modifications, and reissuances thereof and as a result of any changes, resets
or
adjustments to a conversion or exercise price thereunder whether or not as
a
result of any amendment, modification or reissuance), or (2) the grant of
options or warrants, or the issuance of additional securities, under any duly
authorized Company stock option, stock incentive plan, restricted stock plan
or
stock purchase or similar plan in existence on the Closing Date.
(d) Number
of Warrant Shares.
Simultaneously with any adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to this
Section 9, the number of Warrant Shares that may be purchased upon exercise
of
this Warrant shall be increased or decreased proportionately, so that after
such
adjustment the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder for the adjusted
number of Warrant Shares shall be the same as the aggregate Exercise Price
in
effect immediately prior to such adjustment.
-9-
(e) Calculations.
All
calculations under this Section 9 shall be made to the nearest cent or the
nearest 1/100th
of a
share, as applicable. The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any
given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of
the
Company, and the disposition of any such shares shall be considered an issue
or
sale of Common Stock.
(f) Notice
of Adjustments.
Upon
the occurrence of each adjustment pursuant to this Section 9, the Company at
its
expense will promptly compute such adjustment in accordance with the terms
of
this Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment, including
a statement of the adjusted Exercise Price and adjusted number or type of
Warrant Shares or other securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (as
applicable), describing the transactions giving rise to such adjustments and
showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based. Upon written
request, the Company will promptly deliver a copy of each such certificate
to
the Holder and to the Company's Transfer Agent.
(g) Notice
of Corporate Events.
If the
Company (i) declares a dividend or any other distribution of cash, securities
or
other property in respect of its Common Stock, including without limitation
any
granting of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any capital stock
of
the Company or any Subsidiary, (ii) authorizes or approves, enters into any
agreement contemplating or solicits stockholder approval for any Fundamental
Transaction or (iii) authorizes the voluntary dissolution, liquidation or
winding up of the affairs of the Company, then the Company shall deliver to
the
Holder a notice describing the material terms and conditions of such transaction
(but only to the extent such disclosure would not result in the dissemination
of
material, non-public information to the Holder) at least 10 calendar days prior
to the applicable record or effective date on which a Person would need to
hold
Common Stock in order to participate in or vote with respect to such
transaction, and the Company will take all steps reasonably necessary in order
to insure that the Holder is given the practical opportunity to exercise this
Warrant prior to such time so as to participate in or vote with respect to
such
transaction; provided, however, that the failure to deliver such notice or
any
defect therein shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required
to
be described in such notice.
10. Payment
of Exercise Price.
The
Holder shall pay the Exercise Price by
delivery of immediately available funds in the form of cash or certified or
official bank check drawn to the order of the Company.
11. Limitations
on Exercise.
(a) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of Warrant Shares that
may
be acquired by the Holder upon any exercise of this Warrant (or otherwise in
respect hereof) shall be limited to the extent necessary to insure that,
following such exercise (or other issuance), the total number of shares of
Common Stock then beneficially owned by such Holder and its Affiliates and
any
other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated
with the Holder's for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, does not
exceed 4.999% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common
Stock (including for such purpose the shares of Common Stock issuable upon
such
exercise). For such purposes, beneficial ownership shall be determined in
accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations
promulgated thereunder. This provision shall not restrict the number of shares
of Common Stock which a Holder may receive or beneficially own in order to
determine the amount of securities or other consideration that such Holder
may
receive in the event of a Fundamental Transaction as contemplated in Section
9
of this Warrant. By written notice to the Company, an Investor may waive the
provisions of this Section 11(a) as to itself but any such waiver will not
be
effective until the 61st
day
after delivery thereof and such waiver shall have no effect on any other
Investor.

(b) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of Warrant Shares that

Common Stock then beneficially owned by such Holder and its Affiliates and
any
other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated
with the Holder's for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, does not
exceed 9.999% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common
Stock (including for such purpose the shares of Common Stock issuable upon
such
exercise). For such purposes, beneficial ownership shall be determined in
accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations
promulgated thereunder. This provision shall not restrict the number of shares
of Common Stock which a Holder may receive or beneficially own in order to
determine the amount of securities or other consideration that such Holder
may
receive in the event of a Fundamental Transaction as contemplated in Section
9
of this Warrant. This restriction may not be waived, and notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in any Transaction Document, may not be amended by
agreement of the parties.

Fractional Shares.
No
fractional shares of Warrant Shares will be issued in connection with any
exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of any fractional shares which would,
