ARTICLE 2
ADJUSTMENT TO THE SHARES
------------------------
The number of Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the
Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment form time to time upon the
occurrence of certain events, as follows:
2.1 Reclassification. In case of any reclassification or change of
----------------
outstanding securities of the class issuable upon exercise of this Warrant then,
and in any such case, the Holder, upon the exercise hereof at any time after the
consummation of such reclassification or change, shall be entitled to receive in
lieu of each Share theretofore issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the kind
and amount of shares of stock, other securities, money and/or property
2
received upon such reclassification or change by a holder of one Share. The
provisions of this Section 2.1 shall similarly apply to successive
reclassifications or changes.
2.2 Subdivision or Combination of Shares. If the Company at any time
--------------------------------------
while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired shall subdivide or combine
its Shares, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased in the case of
a subdivision or increased in the case of a combination.
2.3 Stock Dividends. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is
---------------
outstanding shall pay a dividend with respect to its Shares payable in Shares,
or make any other distribution of Shares with respect to Shares (except any
distribution specifically provided for in Section 2.1 and Section 2.2 above),
then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted, effective from and after the date of
determination of shareholders entitled to received such dividend or
distribution, to that price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in
effect immediately prior to such date of determination by a fraction. (a) the
numerator of which shall be the total number of Shares outstanding immediately
prior to such dividend or distribution, and (b) the denominator of which shall
be the total number of Shares outstanding immediately after such dividend or
distribution.
2.4 Non-Cash Dividends. If the Company at any time while this Warrant
-------------------
is outstanding shall pay a dividend with respect to Shares payable in securities
other than Shares or other non-cash property, or make any other distribution of
such securities or property with respect to Shares (except any distribution
specifically provided for in Section 2.1 and Section 2.2 above), then this
Warrant shall represent the right to acquire upon exercise of this Warrant such
securities or property which a holder of Shares would have been entitled to
receive upon such dividend or distribution, without the payment by the Holder of
any additional consideration for such securities or property.
2.5 Effect of Reorganization and Asset Sales. If any (i)
---------------------------------------------
reorganization or reclassification of the Common Stock (ii) consolidation or
merger of the Company with or into another corporation, or (iii) sale or all or
substantially all of the Company's operating assets to another corporation
followed by a liquidation of the Company (any such transaction shall be followed
by a liquidation of the Company (any such transaction shall be referred to
herein as an "Event", is effected in such a way that holders of Common Stock are
entitled to receive securities and/or assets as a result of their Common Stock
ownership, the Holder, upon exercise of this Warrant, shall be entitled to
receive such shares of stock securities or assets which the Holder would have
received had it fully exercised this Warrant on or prior to the record date for
such Event. The Company shall not merge into or consolidate with another
corporation or sell all of its assets to another corporation for a consideration
consisting primarily of securities of such corporation, unless the successor or
acquiring corporation, as the case may be, shall expressly assume the due and
punctual observance and performance of each and every covenant and condition of
this Warrant to be performed or observed by the Company and all of the
obligations and liabilities hereunder, subject to such modification as shall be
necessary to provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as
practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 2. The foregoing
provisions shall similarly apply to successive mergers, consolidations or sales
of assets.
3
2.6 Adjustment of Number of Shares. Upon each adjustment in the
----------------------------------
Exercise Price, the number of Shares shall be adjusted, to the nearest whole
share, to the product obtained by multiplying the number of Shares, purchasable
immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which shall be the
Exercise Price immediately thereafter.
2.7 No Impairment. The Company shall not, by amendment of its articles
-------------
of incorporation or through a reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation,
merger, dissolution, issue, or sale of securities or any other voluntary action,
avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be
observed or performed under this Warrant by the Company, but shall at all times
in good faith assist in carrying out all of the provisions of this Warrant and
in taking all such action as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to
protect Xxxxxx's rights hereunder against impairment. If the Company takes any
action affecting its Common Stock other than as described above that adversely
affects Holder's rights under this Warrant, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted
downward and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall
be adjusted upward in such a manner that the aggregate Exercise Price of this
Warrant is unchanged.
2.8 Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares shall be issuable upon the
------------------
exercise of this Warrant, and the number of Shares to be issued shall be rounded
down to the nearest whole Share.
2.9 Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon any adjustment of the Exercise
-----------------------------
Price, the Company, at its expense, shall compute such adjustment and furnish
Holder with a certificate of its Chief Financial Officer setting forth such
adjustment and the facts upon which such adjustment is based. The Company shall,
upon written request, furnish Holder a certificate setting forth the Exercise
Price in effect upon the date thereof and the series of adjustments leading to
such Exercise Price.

---------------------------
to any voting rights or any other rights as a shareholder of the Company prior
to the exercise of Holder's right to purchase Shares as provided herein.
