2. RIGHTS GRANTED; EXERCISE OF WARRANT.
2.1. Right of Exercise. Subject to Section 9.1, the Holder shall be
entitled to exercise this Warrant at any time and from time to time during the
Exercise Period.
2.2. Manner of Exercise. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to exercise this Warrant during the
Exercise Period, in whole or in part, by delivering to the Company at the
Designated Office (a) a Notice of Exercise, duly executed by the Holder,
specifying the number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased, (b) payment of
the Warrant Price by cash, certified or official bank check, (c) this Warrant.
Upon receipt thereof, the Company shall, as promptly as practicable (but in no
event later than five 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. The certificate or certificates so delivered shall be, to the
extent possible, in such denomination or denominations as the Holder shall
request in the Notice of Exercise and shall be registered in the name of the
Holder or such other name as shall be designated in the Notice of Exercise. This
Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised and such certificate or
certificates shall be deemed to have been issued, and the Holder and/or any
other Person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a
holder of record of such shares for all purposes, as of the date the items
specified in clauses (a) through (c) above are received by the Company. 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 Common Stock called for by this
Warrant, which new warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this
Warrant, or, at the request of the Holder, appropriate notation may be made on
this Warrant and the same returned to the Holder.
2.3. Payment of Taxes. The issuance of a certificate or certificates for
shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made without
charge for any stamp or other similar tax in respect of such issuance.
2.4. Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue
fractions of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant or to
distribute certificates which evidence fractional shares of Common Stock. If the
exercise of this Warrant would result in a fractional share of Common Stock or
the right to acquire a fractional share of Common Stock, such fractional share
shall be disregarded and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
exercise of this Warrant shall be rounded up or down to the nearest whole share.
The Holder expressly waives his right to receive any fractional shares upon
exercise of this Warrant.
2.5 Call Rights. The Company shall have the right to call the exercise of
all, but not less than all, of this Warrant outstanding and unexercised at the
Exercise Price in the event (a) the Company delivers to the Holder (i) a fully
executed agreement to effectively acquire all of, respectively, the
then-outstanding shares of stock (or other equity securities) of Dalian Tongfa
and the combined voting power of the then-outstanding voting securities of
Dalian Tongfa generally entitled to vote in the election of directors (or
similar supervisory body) for no more than $9,500,000, and (ii) balance sheets
and statements of income, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flow for
Dalian Tongfa's two most recent fiscal years and all fiscal quarters thereafter
3
prepared in accordance with GAAP and audited by an international independent
registered public accounting firm acceptable to Chinamerica, LP, in its sole
discretion, which financial statements reflect a net income for Dalian Tongfa of
at least $2,000,000 for the previous fiscal year and all fiscal quarters
thereafter and which financial statements are adequate for inclusion in the
Company's periodic filings with the Commission, or (b) the Trading Price of the
Company's Common Stock exceeds $10.00 per share for 10 consecutive trading days.
Upon the Company's delivery of such written notice, the Holder shall have 30
days following the delivery of the written notice to exercise this Warrant in
full (to the extent not previously exercised). Upon the expiration of such
30-day period, this Warrant shall automatically expire to the extent not
otherwise exercised within that period.
3. ADJUSTMENTS AND ANTI-DILUTION PROVISIONS.
3.1. Adjustment for Change in Capital Stock. The number of shares of
Common Stock subject to this Warrant is intended to reflect the number of shares
of Common Stock the Holder would receive following the reverse stock split of
the Common Stock authorized by the Board of Directors and majority shareholder
of the Company on December 5, 2005. In the event of any change in the Common
Stock of the Company by reason of any combination, subdivision, split,
reclassification, stock dividend or any similar change affecting the Common
Stock, then in any such event the number and kind of shares of Common Stock
subject to this Warrant and the Exercise Price shall be adjusted, in such manner
as the Board of Directors determines in good faith to prevent dilution of the
rights granted to the Holder; provided, that, if this Warrant is exercised prior
to the occurrence of the reverse stock split of the Company (as referenced
above), then the Holder shall receive a pre-split number of shares of Common
Stock based on the ratio (as may be adjusted) for such reverse stock split
(without any additional Exercise Price being paid) and the number shares of
Common Stock subject to this Warrant shall be adjusted so that following the
reverse stock split the Holder would have the same number of shares of Common
Stock as is originally subject to this Warrant. The adjustment shall become
effective immediately after the record date in the case of a dividend or
distribution and immediately after the effective date in the case of a
subdivision, combination or reclassification. Such adjustment shall be made
successively whenever any event listed above shall occur.
3.2. Reorganization of Company. If at any time while this Warrant is
outstanding and unexpired there shall be (a) a reorganization of the Company,
(b) a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity in
which the Company is not the surviving entity, or a reverse triangular merger in
which the Company is the surviving entity but the shares of the Company's
capital stock outstanding immediately prior to the merger are converted by
virtue of the merger into other property, whether in the form of securities,
cash or otherwise, or (c) a sale or transfer of the Company's properties and
assets as, or substantially as, an entirety to any other Person, then lawful and
adequate provision will be made whereby the Holder will thereafter have the
right to purchase and receive upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions
specified in this Warrant and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock of the
Company immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of
this Warrant, the kind and amount of stock and other securities and assets
(including, without limitation, cash) receivable upon such merger, consolidation
or sale by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company
4
deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such merger,
consolidation or sale. In any such case, appropriate provisions will be made
with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder to the end that the
provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustments of
the Exercise Price and of the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon
the exercise of this Warrant) will thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may
be, in the good faith determination of the Board of Directors in relation to any
shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the exercise
hereof. The foregoing provisions of this Section 3.2 shall similarly apply to
successive reorganizations, mergers, consolidations and sales and to the stock
or securities of any other Person that are at the time receivable upon the
exercise of this Warrant. If this Section 3.2 applies to a transaction, Section
3.1 shall not apply to such transaction. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, and for so long as this Warrant remains outstanding, no
reorganization, merger or consolidation of or with the Company may occur if, as
a result, the shares of Common Stock of the Company would cease to be listed or
traded on a national securities exchange, any Nasdaq quotation or market system,
over-the-counter system or the Pink Sheets.
3.3. Notice of Adjustment. Whenever an adjustment is made pursuant to this
Section 3, the Company shall promptly mail to the Holder a notice setting forth
the Exercise Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of
the facts requiring such adjustment. Such certificate prepared in good faith
shall be conclusive evidence of the correctness of such adjustment absent
manifest error.
3.4. When No Adjustment Required. No adjustment need be made for a change
in the par value or no par value of the Common Stock.
4. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER AND COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES LAWS.
4.1 Agreement to Be Bound. The Holder, by acceptance of this Warrant,
agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Article 4. This Warrant may be
transferred by the Holder subject only to compliance with applicable federal and
state securities laws. Nothing in this Warrant shall prevent a Holder from
pledging, placing a lien on or otherwise encumbering this Warrant or the Warrant
Stock.
4.2. Compliance with the Securities Act. This Warrant and the Warrant
Stock have not been registered under the Securities Act or any applicable state
securities law. The Holder hereof, by acceptance hereof, agrees that this
Warrant and all shares purchased upon exercise hereof will be disposed of only
in accordance with the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the
Commission promulgated thereunder or of any applicable state securities law.
4.3. Restrictive Legends. Except as otherwise provided in this Article 4,
each certificate for Warrant Stock initially issued upon the exercise of this
Warrant, and each certificate for Warrant Stock issued to any subsequent
transferee of any such certificate, shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with
a legend in substantially the following form:
"THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER
THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), OR ANY
STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED
OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED OR DISPOSED OF, EXCEPT UPON DELIVERY TO THE
COMPANY OF AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT
REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED FOR SUCH TRANSFER AND/OR THE SUBMISSION TO
5
THE COMPANY OF SUCH OTHER EVIDENCE AS MAY BE SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY
TO THE EFFECT THAT ANY SUCH TRANSFER SHALL NOT BE IN VIOLATION OF THE
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND/OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES
LAWS AND/OR ANY RULE OR REGULATION PROMULGATED THEREUNDER."
5. RESERVATION AND AUTHORIZATION OF COMMON STOCK.
From and after the date of this Warrant, the Company shall at all times
reserve and keep available for issuance upon the exercise of this Warrant such
number of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock as will be
sufficient to permit the exercise in full of this Warrant. 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.
6. THEFT, LOSS, DESTRUCTION.
Upon receipt by the Company from the Holder of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or
mutilation of this Warrant and an indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it and,
in case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation hereof, the Company will
execute and deliver in lieu hereof a new Warrant of like tenor to the Holder;
provided, however, in the case of mutilation, no indemnity shall be required if
this Warrant in identifiable form is surrendered to the Company for
cancellation.
7. OFFICE OF THE COMPANY.
As long as this Warrant remains outstanding, the Company shall maintain an
office or agency, which may be the principal executive offices of the Company or
the offices of the transfer agent of the Company (the "Designated Office"),
where this Warrant may be presented for exercise, registration of transfer,
division or combination as provided in this Warrant. Such Designated Office
shall initially be the principal office of the Company at 000 Xxxx Xxxx Xxxx,
Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxx 00000; thereafter, such office shall be the office of the
Company or of an agency designated by the Company in a notice delivered to the
Holder.

Prior to the exercise of this Warrant, the Holder of this Warrant shall
not be entitled to any rights of a shareholder of the Company solely as a result
of this Warrant, including, without limitation, the rights to vote, to receive
dividends or other distributions, and shall not be entitled to receive any
notice of any proceedings of the Company except as provided herein.
9. MISCELLANEOUS.
9.1. Termination of Warrant. Except those rights which by their terms
specifically extend beyond, or terminate prior to, the end of the Exercise
Period, this Warrant and all rights granted herein, to the extent those rights
have not lapsed or been exercised, will terminate and become null and void at
the end of the Exercise Period or as otherwise specifically provided herein.
6
9.2. Notices. All notices, requests, demands, claims and other

deemed delivery. The Holder or the Company may change the address to which
notices, requests, demands, claims and other communications hereunder are to be
delivered by giving the other party notice in the manner provided in this
Warrant.

interests or obligations hereunder without the prior written approval of the

hereby accept for themselves and in respect of their property, generally and
