XXXXXXXXX.XXX, INC.
WARRANT
Warrant No.____ Dated: September 30, 1999
Xxxxxxxxx.xxx, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), hereby
certifies that, for value received, _____________________, or its registered
assigns ("Holder"), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to
purchase from the Company up to a total of 78,461 shares of common stock, $.001
par value per share (the "Common Stock"), of the Company (each such share, a
"Warrant Share" and all such shares, the "Warrant Shares") at an exercise price
equal to $7.50 per share (as adjusted from time to time as provided in Section
9, the "Exercise Price"), at any time and from time to time from and after the
date hereof and through and including September 30, 2004 (the "Expiration
Date"), and subject to the following terms and conditions:
1. Registration of Warrant. The Company shall register this Warrant,
upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the "Warrant
Register"), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The
Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute
owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the
Holder, and for all other purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by
notice to the contrary.
2. Registration of Transfers and Exchanges.
(a) The Company shall register the transfer of any portion of
this Warrant in the Warrant Register, upon surrender of this Warrant, with the
Form of Assignment attached hereto duly completed and signed, to the Transfer
Agent or to the Company at the office specified in or pursuant to Section 3(b).
Upon any such registration or transfer, a new warrant to purchase Common Stock,
in substantially the form of this Warrant (any such new warrant, a "New
Warrant"), evidencing the portion of this Warrant so transferred shall be issued
to the transferee and a New Warrant evidencing the remaining portion of this
Warrant not so
transferred, if any, shall be issued to the transferring Holder. The acceptance
of the New Warrant by the transferee thereof shall be deemed the acceptance of
such transferee of all of the rights and obligations of a holder of a Warrant.
(b) This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by
the Holder to the office of the Company specified in or pursuant to Section 3(b)
for one or more New Warrants, evidencing in the aggregate the right to purchase
the number of Warrant Shares which may then be purchased hereunder. Any such New
Warrant will be dated the date of such exchange.
3. Duration and Exercise of Warrants.
(a) This Warrant shall be exercisable by the registered Holder
on any business day before 8:00 P.M., New York City time, at any time and from
time to time on or after the date hereof to and including the Expiration Date.
At 8:00 P.M., New York City time on the Expiration Date, the portion of this
Warrant not exercised prior thereto shall be and become void and of no value.
Prior to the Expiration Date, the Company may not call or otherwise redeem this
Warrant without the prior written consent of the Holder.
(b) Subject to Sections 2(b), 6 and 10, upon surrender of this
Warrant, with the Form of Election to Purchase attached hereto duly completed
and signed, to the Company at its address for notice set forth in Section 13 and
upon payment of the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares
that the Holder intends to purchase hereunder, in the manner provided hereunder,
all as specified by the Holder in the Form of Election to Purchase, the Company
shall promptly (but in no event later than 3 business days after the Date of
Exercise (as defined herein)) issue or cause to be issued and cause to be
delivered to or upon the written order of the Holder and in such name or names
as the Holder may designate, a certificate for the Warrant Shares issuable upon
such exercise, free of restrictive legends except (i) either in the event that a
registration statement covering the resale of the Warrant Shares and naming the
Holder as a selling stockholder thereunder is not then effective or the Warrant
Shares are not freely transferable without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule
144(k) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
Act"), or (ii) if this Warrant shall have been issued pursuant to a written
agreement between the original Holder and the Company, as required by such
agreement. Any person so designated by the Holder to receive Warrant Shares
shall be deemed to have become holder of record of such Warrant Shares as of the
Date of Exercise of this Warrant.
A "Date of Exercise" means the date on which the Company shall
have received (i) this Warrant (or any New Warrant, as applicable), with the
Form of Election to Purchase attached hereto (or attached to such New Warrant)
appropriately completed and duly signed, and (ii) payment of the Exercise Price
for the number of Warrant Shares so indicated by the holder hereof to be
purchased.
(c) This Warrant shall be exercisable, either in its entirety
or, from time to time, for a portion of the number of Warrant Shares. If less
than all of the Warrant Shares which may be purchased under this Warrant are
exercised at any time, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued, at its
expense, a New Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of
Warrant Shares for which no exercise has been evidenced by this Warrant.

4. Piggyback Registration Rights. During the Effectiveness Period
(as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement, of even date herewith, between
the Company and the original Holder), the Company may not file any registration
statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (other than registration
statements of the Company filed on Form S-8 or Form S-4, each as promulgated
under the Securities Act, pursuant to which the Company is registering
securities pursuant to a Company employee benefit plan or pursuant to a merger,
acquisition or similar transaction including supplements thereto, but not
additionally filed registration statements in respect of such securities) at any
time when there is not an effective registration statement covering the resale
of the Warrant Shares and naming the Holder as a selling stockholder thereunder,
unless the Company provides the Holder with not less than 20 days notice of its
intention to file such registration statement and provides the Holder the option
to include any or all of the applicable Warrant Shares therein. The piggyback
registration rights granted to the Holder pursuant to this Section shall
continue until all of the Holder's Warrant Shares have been sold in accordance
with an effective registration statement or upon the Expiration Date. The
Company will pay all registration expenses in connection therewith.
5. Demand Registration Rights. During the Effectiveness Period if
the Warrant Shares are not registered pursuant to an effective registration
statement, the Holder may make a written request for the registration under the
Securities Act (a "Demand Registration"), of all of the Warrant Shares (the
"Registrable Securities"), and the Company shall use its best efforts to effect
such Demand Registration as promptly as possible, but in any case within 90 days
thereafter. Any request for a Demand Registration shall specify the aggregate
number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold and shall also specify the
intended method of disposition thereof. The right to cause a registration of the
Registrable Securities under this Section 5 shall be limited to one such
registration. In any registration initiated as a Demand Registration, the
Company will pay all of its registration expenses in connection therewith. A
Demand Registration shall not be counted as a Demand Registration hereunder
until the registration statement filed pursuant to the Demand Registration has
been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission and maintained
continuously effective for a period of at least 360 days or such shorter period
when all Registrable Securities included therein have been sold in accordance
with such registration statement, provided, however that any days on which such
registration statement is not effective or on which the Holder is not permitted
by the Company or any governmental authority to sell Warrant Shares under such
registration statement shall not count towards such 360 day period.
6. Payment of Taxes. The Company will pay all documentary stamp
taxes attributable to the issuance of Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this
Warrant; 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 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
3
destruction and indemnity, if requested, satisfactory to it. Applicants for a
New Warrant under such circumstances shall also comply with such other
reasonable regulations and procedures and pay such other reasonable charges as
the Company may prescribe.
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 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 actual 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 that shall be 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. Upon each such adjustment of the
Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 9, the Holder shall thereafter prior to
the Expiration Date be entitled to purchase, at the Exercise Price resulting
from such adjustment, the number of Warrant Shares obtained by multiplying the
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of
Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such
adjustment and dividing the product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting from
such adjustment.
(a) If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is
outstanding, (i) shall pay a stock dividend (except scheduled dividends paid on
outstanding preferred stock as of the date hereof which contain a stated
dividend rate) or otherwise make a distribution or distributions on shares of
its Common Stock or on any other class of capital stock payable in shares of
Common Stock, (ii) subdivide outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger
number of shares, or (iii) combine outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction
of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding
treasury shares, if any) outstanding before such event and of which the
denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury
shares, if any) outstanding after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to
this Section shall become effective immediately after the record date for the
determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution
and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a
subdivision or combination, and shall apply to successive subdivisions and
combinations.
(b) In case of any reclassification of the Common Stock or any
compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is converted into
other securities, cash or property, then the Holder shall have the right
thereafter to exercise this Warrant only into the shares of stock and other
securities and property receivable upon or deemed to be held by holders of
Common Stock following such reclassification or share exchange, and the Holder
shall be entitled upon such event to receive such amount of securities or
property equal to the amount of Warrant Shares such Holder would have been
entitled to
4
had such Holder exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such
reclassification or share exchange. The terms of any such reclassification or
share exchange shall include such terms so as to continue to give to the Holder
the right to receive the securities or property set forth in this Section 9(b)
upon any exercise following any such reclassification or share exchange.
(c) If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is
outstanding, shall distribute to all holders of Common Stock (and not to holders
of this Warrant) evidences of its indebtedness or assets or rights or warrants
to subscribe for or purchase any security (excluding those referred to in
Sections 9(a), (b) and (d)), then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be
determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the
record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such
distribution by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the Exercise Price
determined as of the record date mentioned above, and of which the numerator
shall be such Exercise Price on such record date less the then fair market value
at such record date of the portion of such assets or evidence of indebtedness so
distributed applicable to one outstanding share of Common Stock as determined by
the Company's independent certified public accountants that regularly examines
the financial statements of the Company (an "Appraiser").
(d) If at any time the Company or any subsidiary thereof, as
applicable with respect to Common Stock Equivalents (as defined below), shall
issue shares of Common Stock or rights, warrants, options or other securities or
debt that is convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock
("Common Stock Equivalents"), entitling any person or entity to acquire shares
of Common Stock at a price per share less than both the market price of the
Common Stock at the time of issuance and the Exercise Price then in effect (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 at a price
less than the prevailing Exercise Price or market price, such issuance shall be
deemed to have occurred for less than such Exercise Price or market price),
then, forthwith upon such issue or sale, the Exercise Price shall be reduced to
the price (calculated to the nearest cent) determined by multiplying the
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior thereto by a fraction, the numerator
of which shall be the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to such issuance, and (ii) the number of shares of
Common Stock which the aggregate consideration received (or to be received,
assuming exercise or conversion in full of such Common Stock Equivalents) for
the issuance of such additional shares of Common Stock 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 after the issuance of such
additional shares. For purposes hereof, all shares of Common Stock that are
issuable upon conversion, exercise or exchange of Common Stock Equivalents shall
be deemed outstanding immediately after the issuance of such Common Stock
Equivalents. Such adjustment shall be made whenever such Common Stock or Common
Stock Equivalents are issued. However, upon the expiration of any Common Stock
Equivalents the issuance of which resulted in an adjustment in the Exercise
Price pursuant to this Section, if any such Common Stock Equivalents shall
expire and shall not have been exercised, the Exercise Price shall immediately
upon such expiration be recomputed and effective immediately upon such
expiration be increased to the price which it would have been (but reflecting
any other adjustments in the Exercise Price made pursuant to the provisions of
this Section after the
5
issuance of such Common Stock Equivalents) had the adjustment of the Exercise
Price made upon the issuance of such Common Stock Equivalents been made on the
basis of offering for subscription or purchase only that number of shares of the
Common Stock actually purchased upon the exercise of such Common Stock
Equivalents actually exercised. The foregoing shall not be applicable to any
options issued under existing option plans as of the date hereof.
(e) In case of any (1) merger or consolidation of the Company
with or into another Person, or (2) sale by the Company of more than one-half of
the assets of the Company (on a book value basis) in one or a series of related
transactions, or (3) tender or other offer or exchange (whether by the Company
or another Person) pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to
tender or exchange their shares for other securities, stock, cash or property of
the Company or another Person; then the Holder shall have the right thereafter
to (A) exercise this Warrant for the shares of stock and other securities, cash
and property receivable upon or deemed to be held by holders of Common Stock
following such merger, consolidation or sale, and the Holder shall be entitled
upon such event or series of related events to receive such amount of
securities, cash and property as the Common Stock for which this Warrant could
have been exercised immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or sales
would have been entitled, (B) in the case of a merger or consolidation, (x)
require the surviving entity to issue to the Holder a warrant entitling the
Holder to acquire shares of such entity's common stock, which warrant shall have
terms identical (including with respect to exercise) to the terms of this
Warrant and shall be entitled to all of the rights and privileges set forth
herein and the agreements pursuant to which this Warrant was issued (including,
without limitation, as such rights relate to the acquisition, transferability,
registration and listing of such shares of stock other securities issuable upon
exercise thereof), or (C) in the event of an exchange or tender offer or other
transaction contemplated by clause (3) of this Section, tender or exchange this
Warrant for such securities, stock, cash and other property receivable upon or
deemed to be held by holders of Common Stock that have tendered or exchanged
their shares of Common Stock following such tender or exchange, and the Holder
shall be entitled upon such exchange or tender to receive such amount of
securities, cash and property as the shares of Common Stock for which this
Warrant could have been exercised immediately prior to such tender or exchange
would have been entitled as would have been issued. In the case of clause (B),
the exercise price applicable for the newly issued warrant shall be based upon
the amount of securities, cash and property that each shares of Common Stock
would receive in such transaction and the Exercise Price immediately prior to
the effectiveness or closing date for such transaction. The terms of any such
merger, sale, consolidation, tender or exchange shall include such terms so as
continue to give the Holder the right to receive the securities, cash and
property set forth in this Section upon any conversion or redemption following
such event. This provision shall similarly apply to successive such events.
(f) For the purposes of this Section 9, the following clauses
shall also be applicable:
(i) Record Date. In case the Company shall take a record
of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (A) to
receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Common Stock or in
securities convertible or exchangeable into shares of Common Stock, or (B) to
subscribe for or purchase Common Stock or securities convertible or exchangeable
into shares of Common Stock, 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
6
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.
(ii) Treasury Shares. 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.
(g) All calculations under this Section 9 shall be made to the
nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be.
(h) Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to
Section 9(c) above, the Holder, after receipt of the determination by the
Appraiser, shall have the right to select an additional appraiser (which shall
be a nationally recognized accounting firm), in which case the adjustment shall
be equal to the average of the adjustments recommended by each of the Appraiser
and such appraiser. The Holder shall promptly mail or cause to be mailed to the
Company, a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and
setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. Such
adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date mentioned
above.
(i) If:
(i) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other
distribution) on its Common Stock; or
(ii) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring
cash dividend on or a redemption of its Common
Stock; or
(iii) the Company shall authorize the granting to all
holders of the Common Stock rights or warrants to
subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital
stock of any class or of any rights; or
(iv) the approval of any stockholders of the Company
shall be required in connection with any
reclassification of the Common Stock, any
consolidation or merger to which the Company is a
party, any sale or transfer of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company, or
any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common
Stock is converted into other securities, cash or
property; or
(v) the Company shall authorize the voluntary
dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the
affairs of the Company,
then the Company shall cause to be mailed to each Holder at their last addresses
as they shall appear upon the Warrant Register, at least 30 calendar days prior
to the applicable record or
7
effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a
record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution,
redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as
of which the holders of Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend,
distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the
date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or
share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of
which it is expected that holders of Common Stock of record shall be entitled to
exchange their shares of Common Stock for securities, cash or other property
deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer,
share exchange, dissolution, liquidation or winding up; provided, however, that
the failure to mail such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof
shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified
in such notice.
10. Payment of Exercise Price. The Holder shall pay the Exercise
Price in one of the following manners:
(a) Cash Exercise. The Holder may deliver immediately
available funds; or
(b) Cashless Exercise. The Holder may surrender this Warrant
to the Company together with a notice of cashless exercise, in which event the
Company shall issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares determined as
follows:
X = Y (A-B)/A
where:
X = the number of Warrant Shares to be issued
to the Holder.
Y = the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which
this Warrant is being exercised.
A = the average of the closing sale prices of the Common
Stock for the five (5) trading days immediately prior to
(but not including) the Date of Exercise.
B = the Exercise Price.
For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, it is intended,
understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a cashless
exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and
the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been
commenced, on the issue date.
11. Certain Exercise Restrictions.
(a) A Holder may not exercise this Warrant to the extent such
exercise would result in the Holder, together with any affiliate thereof,
beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") and the rules
promulgated thereunder) in excess of 4.999% of the then issued and outstanding
shares of Common Stock, including shares of Common Stock
8
issuable upon such exercise and held by such Holder after application of this
Section. Since the Holder will not be obligated to report to the Company the
number of shares of Common Stock it may hold at the time of an exercise
hereunder, unless the exercise at issue would result in the issuance of shares
of Common Stock in excess of 4.999% of the then outstanding shares of Common
Stock without regard to any other shares of Common Stock which may be
beneficially owned by the Holder or an affiliate thereof, the Holder shall have
the authority and obligation to determine whether the restriction contained in
this Section will limit any particular exercise hereunder and to the extent that
the Holder determines that the limitation contained in this Section applies, the
determination of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be the
responsibility and obligation of the Holder. If the Holder has delivered a Form
of Election to Purchase for a number of Warrant Shares that would result in the
issuance in excess of the permitted amount hereunder, the Company shall notify
the Holder of this fact and shall honor the exercise for the maximum portion of
this Warrant permitted to be exercised on such Date of Exercise in accordance
with the periods described herein and disregard the balance of such Form of
Election to Purchase, as if never delivered The provisions of this Section may
be waived by a Holder (but only as to itself and not to any other Holder) upon
not less than 61 days prior notice to the Company. Other Holders shall be
unaffected by any such waiver.
(b) A Holder may not exercise this Warrant to the extent such
exercise would result in the Holder, together with any affiliate thereof,
beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the
Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of 9.999% of the
then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, including shares of Common
Stock issuable upon such exercise and held by such Holder after application of
this Section. Since the Holder will not be obligated to report to the Company
the number of shares of Common Stock it may hold at the time of an exercise
hereunder, unless the exercise at issue would result in the issuance of shares
of Common Stock in excess of 9.999% of the then outstanding shares of Common
Stock without regard to any other shares of Common Stock which may be
beneficially owned by the Holder or an affiliate thereof, the Holder shall have
the authority and obligation to determine whether the restriction contained in
this Section will limit any particular exercise hereunder and to the extent that
the Holder determines that the limitation contained in this Section applies, the
determination of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be the
responsibility and obligation of the Holder. If the Holder has delivered a Form
of Election to Purchase for a number of Warrant Shares that would result in the
issuance in excess of the permitted amount hereunder, the Company shall notify
the Holder of this fact and shall honor the exercise for the maximum portion of
this Warrant permitted to be exercised on such Date of Exercise in accordance
with the periods described herein and disregard the balance of such Form of
Election to Purchase, as if never delivered The provisions of this Section may
be waived by a Holder (but only as to itself and not to any other Holder) upon
not less than 61 days prior notice to the Company. Other Holders shall be
unaffected by any such waiver.
12. Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue or
cause to be issued fractional Warrant Shares on the exercise of this Warrant.
The number of full Warrant Shares which shall be issuable upon the exercise of
this Warrant shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of Warrant
Shares purchasable on exercise of this Warrant so presented. If any fraction of
a Warrant Share would, except for the provisions of this Section, be issuable on
the exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall pay an amount in cash equal to
the Exercise Price multiplied by such fraction.
9
13. Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or
deliveries hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective
on the earliest of (i) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication
is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile telephone number specified in this
Section prior to 8:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a business day, (ii) the

this Warrant. Upon thirty (30) days' notice to the Holder, the Company may
appoint a new warrant agent. Any corporation into which the Company or any new
warrant agent may be merged or any corporation resulting from any consolidation
to which the Company or any new warrant agent shall be a party or any
corporation to which the Company or any new warrant agent transfers
substantially all of its corporate trust or shareholders services business shall
be a successor warrant agent under this Warrant without any further act. Any
such successor warrant agent shall promptly cause notice of its succession as
warrant agent to be mailed (by first class mail, postage prepaid) to the Holder
at the Holder's last address as shown on the Warrant Register.
15. Miscellaneous.
(a) This Warrant shall be binding on and inure to the benefit
of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. This Warrant
may be amended only in writing signed by the Company and the Holder and their
successors and assigns.

shall be construed to give to any person or corporation other than the Company
and the Holder any legal or equitable right, remedy or cause under this Warrant.
