NO. 2005-W107 ISSUED: SEPTEMBER 16, 2005
WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK
EXPIRES SEPTEMBER 13, 2008
This warrant (this "Warrant") certifies that, for good and valuable
consideration, XXXXXXX X. XXXXX, an individual residing at 0000 Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx
Xxxxx, Xxxx Xxxx Xxxx, Xxxx 00000 (the "Holder") is entitled to purchase from
Protocall Technologies Incorporated, a Nevada corporation (the "Company"), Two
Million Three Hundred Eighty Thousand Nine Hundred Fifty-Two (2,380,952) fully
paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share
("Common Stock"), of the Company (as adjusted pursuant to Section 3) (the
"Warrant Shares") at a price per share equal to Fifty Cents ($0.50) (as adjusted
pursuant to Section 3) (the "Exercise Price"), upon the terms and subject to the
conditions hereinafter set forth.
1. EXERCISE; PAYMENT.
(a) Exercise Period. This Warrant may be exercised in whole or part by the
Holder during the term (as set forth in Section 10) and in compliance with the
provisions of this Warrant at any time after the date of issuance set forth
above (the "Warrant Date"), by the surrender of this Warrant (with the notice of
exercise form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "Notice of Exercise") duly
executed) at the principal office of 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 Warrant Shares, 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.
(b) Exercise. Upon exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall pay to the Company
an amount equal to the product of (x) the Exercise Price multiplied by (y) the
total number of Warrant Shares purchased pursuant to this Warrant, by wire
transfer or cashier's check payable to the order of the Company. The Holder
shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of, and
shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of, the Warrant Shares
represented thereby (and such Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been
issued) immediately prior to the close of business on the date upon which this
Warrant is exercised.
(c) Stock Certificates. In the event of the exercise of this Warrant,
certificates for the Warrant Shares so purchased shall be delivered to the
Holder promptly after exercise but in no event more than ten (10) business days
after such exercise.
2. STOCK FULLY PAID; RESERVATION OF SHARES. All of the Warrant Shares issuable
upon the exercise of this Warrant will, upon issuance in accordance with the
terms of this Warrant, be fully paid and nonassessable, and free from all
preemptive rights, rights of first refusal or first offer, taxes, liens and
charges with respect to the issuance thereof. During the period within which the
rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised, the Company shall at all
times have authorized and reserved for issuance a sufficient number of shares of
its Common Stock to provide for the exercise of this Warrant.
3. ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF SHARES. The number and kind of
Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise
Price payable therefor shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the
occurrence of certain events, as follows:
(a) Reclassification, Consolidation or Reorganization. In case of any
reclassification of the Common Stock (other than a change in par value, or as a
result of a subdivision or combination), or in case of any consolidation or
merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a Change of
Control, as defined below) (any of which is a "Reorganization Transaction"), the
Company, or such successor corporation as the case may be, shall execute a new
warrant, providing that the Holder shall have the right to exercise such new
warrant, and procure upon such exercise and payment of the same aggregate
Exercise Price, in lieu of the Warrant Shares theretofore issuable upon exercise
of this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities, money
and property as would be payable for the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise
of this Warrant as if such Warrant Shares were outstanding immediately prior to
the consummation of the Reorganization Transaction. For purposes of this
Warrant, the term "Change of Control" shall mean (i) any acquisition of the
Company by means of merger, acquisition, or other form of corporate
reorganization in which outstanding shares of the Company are exchanged for
securities or other consideration issued, or caused to be issued, by the
acquiring corporation or its subsidiary or parent (other than a reincorporation
transaction or change of domicile) and pursuant to which the holders of the
outstanding voting securities of the Company immediately prior to such
consolidation, merger or other transaction fail to hold equity securities
representing a majority of the voting power of the Company or surviving entity
immediately following such consolidation, merger or other transaction (excluding
voting securities of the acquiring corporation held by such holders prior to
such transaction) or (ii) a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of
the Company.
(b) Stock Splits, Dividends and Combinations. In the event that the Company
shall at any time subdivide the outstanding shares of Common Stock, or shall
issue a stock dividend on its outstanding shares of Common Stock, the number of
Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such
subdivision or to the issuance of such stock dividend
2
shall be proportionately increased, and the Exercise Price shall be
proportionately decreased, and in the event that the Company shall at any time
combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the number of Warrant Shares
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such combination
shall be proportionately decreased, and the Exercise Price shall be
proportionately increased, effective at the close of business on the date of
such subdivision, stock dividend or combination, as the case may be.
(c) Adjustment Upon Issuance of Shares of Common Stock Below Exercise Price.
(i) If the Company, at any time or from time to time, issues
or sells any Additional Shares of Common Stock (as defined
below), other than as provided in the foregoing subsections of
this Section 3, for a price per share (the "Per Share Price")
(which, in the case of options, warrants, convertible
securities or other rights, includes the amounts paid therefor
plus the exercise price, conversion price or other such
amounts payable thereunder) that is less than the then
applicable Exercise Price, then and in each such case, the
then applicable Exercise Price shall automatically be reduced
as of the opening of business on the date of such issue or
sale, to the Per Share Price. "Additional Shares of Common
Stock" shall mean all shares of Common Stock, and all options,
warrants, convertible securities or other rights to purchase
or acquire shares of Common Stock, issued by the Company other
than (A) shares of Common Stock and/or options, warrants or
other Common Stock purchase rights, where such options,
warrants or other rights are issued both (i) with exercise
prices per share of Common Stock at the then-current fair
market value of a share of Common Stock, as determined in good
faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, and (ii) to
employees, officers or directors of, or consultants to, the
Company or any subsidiary pursuant to stock purchase or stock
option plans or other arrangements that are approved by the
Company's Board of Directors and (B) shares of Common Stock
issued pursuant to the exercise of options, warrants or
convertible securities outstanding as of the date hereof.
(ii) In the event that the exercise price, conversion price,
purchase price or other price at which shares of Common Stock
are purchasable pursuant to any options, warrants, convertible
securities or other rights to purchase or acquire Common Stock
is reduced at any time or from time to time (other than under
or by reason of provisions designed to protect against
dilution), then, upon such reduction becoming effective, the
Exercise Price then in effect hereunder shall forthwith be
decreased to such Exercise Price as would have been obtained
had the adjustments made and required under this Section 3
upon the issuance of such options, warrants, convertible
securities or other rights been made upon the basis of (and
the total consideration received therefor) (A) the issuance of
the number of shares of Common Stock theretofore actually
delivered upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of such
options, warrants, convertible securities or other rights, (B)
the issuance of all of the Common Stock and all other options,
warrants, convertible securities and other rights to purchase
or acquire Common Stock issued after the issuance of the
modified options, warrants, convertible securities or other
rights, and (C) the original issuance at the time of the
reduction
3
of any such options, warrants, convertible securities or other
rights then still outstanding.
(iii) In no event shall an adjustment under this Section 3(c)
be made if it would result in an increase in the then
applicable Exercise Price.
(iv) The provisions of this Section 3(c) shall terminate and
be of no further force or effect on September 15, 2006.
(d) Notice of Corporate Action. If at any time (i) the Company shall take a
record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to
receive a dividend (other than a cash dividend payable out of earnings or earned
surplus legally available for the payment of dividends under the laws of State
of Nevada) or other distribution, or any right to subscribe for or purchase any
evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of stock of any class or any other
securities or property, or to receive any other right; (ii) there shall be any
capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification or recapitalization
of the capital stock of the Company or any consolidation or merger of the
Company with, or any sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially
all the property, assets or business of the Company to, another corporation; or
(iii) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or
winding up of the Company, then, in any one or more of such cases, the Company
shall give to the Holder (i) at least 10 business days prior written notice of
the date on which a record date shall be selected for such dividend,
distribution or right or for determining rights to vote in respect of any such
reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer,
disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, and (ii) in the case of any
such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer,
disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, at least 10 business days
prior written notice of the date when the same shall take place. Such notice in
accordance with the foregoing clause also shall specify (i) the date on which
any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or
right, the date on which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to any
such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and character thereof, and
(ii) the date on which any such reorganization, reclassification, merger,
consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding
up is to take place and the time, if any such time is to be fixed, as of which
the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common
Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization,
reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition,
dissolution, liquidation or winding up. Each such written notice shall be
sufficiently given if addressed to the Holder at the last address of the Holder
appearing on the books of the Company and delivered in accordance with Section
11(d).
4. TRANSFER OF WARRANT AND RESALE OF WARRANT SHARES.
(a) This Warrant may only be transferred in compliance with federal and state
securities laws.
(b) At the time of the surrender of this Warrant in connection with any transfer
of this Warrant or the resale of the Warrant Shares, the Company may require, as
a condition of allowing such transfer (i) that the Holder or transferee of this
Warrant or the Warrant Shares as the case may be, furnish to the Company a
written opinion of counsel that is reasonably
4
acceptable to the Company to the effect that such transfer may be made without
registration under the Securities Act or qualification under any state
securities laws, (ii) that the Holder or transferee execute and deliver to the
Company an investment representation letter in form and substance acceptable to
the Company containing among other provisions representations and warranties
similar to those set forth in Section 5 and (iii) that the transferee be an
"accredited investor" as defined in Rule 501(a) promulgated under the Securities
Act. Transfer of this Warrant and all rights hereunder, in whole or in part, in
accordance with the foregoing provisions, shall be registered on the books of
the Company to be maintained for such purpose, upon surrender of this Warrant at
the principal office of the Company or the office or agency designated by the
Company, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the
form of Exhibit B hereto duly executed by the Holder or its attorney-in-fact and
funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such
transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall
execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or
assignees and in the denomination specified in such instrument of assignment,
and shall issue to the Holder a new warrant evidencing the portion of this
Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall be deemed cancelled. This
Section 4 shall survive the exercise or expiration of the Warrant.
5. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF HOLDER.
(a) EXEMPT TRANSACTION; RESTRICTED SECURITIES. The Holder understands that this
Warrant is being offered and sold in reliance on one or more exemptions from
registration provided for under the Securities Act, and that the Company's

The Holder understands that the Holder may resell the Warrant Shares pursuant to
Rule 144 only after the satisfaction of certain requirements, including the

Warrant for investment for the Holder's own account, not as nominee or agent,
for investment and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any
distribution or public offering thereof within the meaning of the Securities
Act. The Holder is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of the Securities
Act. The Holder has the full right, power, authority and capacity to enter into
and perform this Warrant and the terms of this Warrant constitute valid and
binding obligations of the Holder enforceable in accordance with its terms,
except as the same may be limited by equitable principles and by bankruptcy,
insolvency, moratorium, and other laws of general application affecting the
enforcement of creditors' rights.
(c) KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERIENCE. The Holder has such knowledge and experience in
financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and
risks of the Holder's investment in this Warrant and has the ability to bear the
economic risks of such investment.
