WARRANT TO PURCHASE
SHARES OF
COMMON STOCK
OF
CLARION TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
THIS IS TO CERTIFY that, for value received, XXXXXXX XXXXX MEZZANINE
CAPITAL FUND III, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("WBMCF"), or its
registered assigns, is entitled to purchase from CLARION TECHNOLOGIES, INC., a
Delaware corporation (together with any successor thereto, the "Company"), at
any time on or before July 21, 2010 (the "Expiration Date"), Two Million Eight
Hundred Forty-Seven Thousand Seven Hundred Ninety-Seven (2,847,797) shares of
Common Stock, par value of $0.001 per share, of the Company (the "Common
Stock"), described in Section 1 of this Warrant, at a price of $0.0001 per share
(the "Exercise Price"), subject to adjustment as hereinafter set forth, and to
exercise the other rights, powers and privileges hereinafter provided, all on
the terms and subject to the conditions and hereinafter set forth.
This Warrant has been issued by the Company pursuant to that certain
Senior Subordinated Loan Agreement of even date herewith among the Company, its
subsidiaries made a party thereto and WBMCF (as same may be amended,
supplemented, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, in compliance
with the terms thereof, the "Loan Agreement") in consideration of the loan to
the Company and its subsidiaries by WBMCF provided for in such Loan Agreement.
Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings
set forth in Section 13 hereof, or if not therein defined, as ascribed to them
in the Loan Agreement. If the Loan Agreement is terminated prior to the
termination of this Warrant, such terms shall have the definitions given to them
in the Loan Agreement as in effect immediately prior to its termination. The
Company and Holder agree that the value of this Warrant on the date of issue is
the lesser of Two Dollars and Sixty-Two Cents ($2.62) per Warrant Share or that
amount per Warrant Share determined by a nationally recognized investment
banking firm or other firm providing similar valuation services (a "Valuation
Firm") mutually acceptable to WBMCF and the Company within the thirty (30) day
period following the date hereof consistent with the terms of Section 2.8 of the
Loan Agreement.
1. Exercise of Warrant.
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Holder shall
have the right, at its option, to exercise this Warrant in whole or, if in part,
in increments of at least 300,000 shares of Common Stock (as adjusted for any
stock splits, subdivisions, or similar events), at any time and from time
2
to time during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the
Expiration Date. To exercise this Warrant, Holder shall deliver to the Company
(i) a Notice of Exercise in the form attached hereto duly completed and
executed, (ii) an amount equal to the Exercise Price or, in the case of a
partial exercise of this Warrant, the portion thereof payable upon such
exercise, and (iii) this Warrant. At the option of Holder, payment of the
Exercise Price shall be made: (A) by wire transfer of funds to an account in a
bank located in the United States designated by the Company for such purpose,
(B) by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company, (C)
by deduction from the number of shares of Common Stock otherwise to be delivered
upon exercise of the Warrant that number of shares of Common Stock which has an
aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the aggregate Exercise Price for all shares
of Common Stock to be purchased, or (D) by any combination of the foregoing
methods.
(b) Upon receipt of the required deliveries, the Company shall, as
promptly as practicable, cause to be issued and delivered to Holder or, subject
to Section 11 hereof, the Person designated in the Notice of Exercise, a
certificate or certificates representing shares of Common Stock equal in the
aggregate to the number of shares of Common Stock specified in the Notice of
Exercise (less any shares of Common Stock in payment of a cashless exercise
pursuant to Section 1(a)(C) above). The Company shall pay all reasonable
expenses and other charges payable in connection with the preparation, execution
and delivery of stock certificates pursuant to this Section 1.
2. Reservation. The Company shall at all times prior to the Expiration
Date reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery upon the
exercise of this Warrant, a number of authorized shares of Common Stock equal to
the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant and no such shares
shall at any time have a par value which is in excess of the then effective
Exercise Price.
3. Adjustments. The Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common
Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment
as hereafter set forth:
(a) In the event that at any time the Company shall: (i) make any
dividend or other distribution with respect to its Common Stock in shares of its
Common Stock, or (ii) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
larger number of shares of Common Stock, or (iii) combine its outstanding shares
of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, then the
Exercise Price shall be adjusted to that price determined by multiplying the
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such event by a fraction (A) the
numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock
immediately prior to such event, and (B) the denominator of which shall be the
total number of shares of Common Stock of the Company immediately after such
event.
(b) In the event that at any time the Company shall issue or sell any
shares of Common Stock (except shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of
this Warrant) for a consideration per share less than the Fair Market Value
thereof, then upon each such issuance the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to
that price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately
prior to the time of such issue or sale by a fraction (A) the numerator of which
shall be the number of shares of Common Stock immediately prior to such issuance
or sale plus the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate
consideration for the total number of such additional shares of Common Stock so
issued or sold would purchase at the Fair Market Value thereof on the date of
such issuance or sale, and (B) the denominator of which shall be the number of
shares of Common Stock immediately prior to such issuance or sale plus the
number of such additional shares of Common Stock so issued or sold. The
provisions of this subsection (b) shall not apply to any additional shares of
Common Stock which are distributed to
2
3
holders of Common Stock as a stock dividend or subdivision for which an
adjustment is provided for under subsection (a) of this Section 3.
(c) In the event any shares of Common Stock shall be issued or
sold for cash, the consideration received by the Company therefor shall be
deemed to be the amount of the cash received by the Company therefor or, if such
shares of Common Stock are offered by the Company for subscription, the
subscription price or, if such shares of Common Stock are sold to underwriters
or dealers for public offering without a subscription offer, the initial public
offering price, in each case excluding any amount paid or receivable for accrued
interest or accrued dividends and without deduction of any compensation,
discounts or expenses paid or incurred by the Company in connection with such
issuance or sale.
(d) In the event any shares of Common Stock shall be issued or sold for
a consideration other than cash, the amount of such consideration shall be
deemed to be the fair value of such consideration at the time of such issuance
as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in the good faith
exercise of their business judgment.
(e) Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price as provided in this
Section 3, the holder hereof shall thereafter be entitled to purchase, at the
Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment, the number of shares of Common
Stock obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to
such adjustment by the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder
immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the product thereof by the
Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment.
(f) Whenever the Exercise Price or the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant is adjusted pursuant to this Section 3,
the Company shall promptly deliver a notice to the holder of this Warrant
setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment, the
amount of the adjustment and the method by which such adjustment was calculated.
(g) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, an adjustment as
provided in Section 3(b) above shall not be made if the Company issues
securities (i) to employees, officers or directors of the Company to the extent
approved by the Board, (ii) as payment of all or any part of the purchase price
of any business or assets thereof acquired by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, (iii) to any lender in connection with the incurrence of
Indebtedness by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (iv) upon the exercise
of any option or other right described in any of clauses (i) through (iii), (v)
upon exercise of options, warrants or other agreements or rights to purchase
capital stock of the Company entered into prior to the date hereof and set forth
on Schedule 4.3 to the Loan Agreement, or (vi) by means of bona fide public
offerings or private placements pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act,
Rule 144A, Regulation D or Regulation S thereunder of any security trading on
any national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter market, or of a
security directly or indirectly convertible or exchangeable for any such
security, involving at least one investment bank of national reputation.
4. Mergers, Consolidations, Etc. In the case of any consolidation or
merger of the Company with another entity or any reorganization or
reclassification of the Common Stock or other equity securities of the Company,
then, as a condition of such consolidation, merger, reorganization or
reclassification, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby Holder
shall thereafter have the right to receive upon the basis and upon the terms and
conditions specified herein and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock
immediately theretofore purchasable hereunder, such shares of stock, securities
or assets as may be (by virtue of such consolidation, merger, reorganization or
reclassification) issued or payable with
3
4
respect to or in exchange for a number of outstanding shares of Common Stock
equal to the number of shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore so
purchasable hereunder had such consolidation, merger, reorganization or
reclassification not taken place, and in any such case appropriate provisions
shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of Holder to the end that
the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be, in
relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable
upon exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall not effect any such
consolidation or merger, unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation
thereof, the successor entity (if other than the Company) resulting from such
consolidation or merger shall assume by written instrument executed and
delivered to Holder, the obligation to deliver to Holder such shares of stock,
securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, Holder may
be entitled to receive.
5. Dividends; Redemption. If the Board of Directors of the Company shall
(a) declare any dividend or other distribution on the shares of the Common
Stock, except by way of a stock dividend payable on all of the Common Stock, or
(b) authorize the redemption or repurchase of any shares of the Common Stock,
the Company shall deliver notice thereof to Holder not less than twenty (20)
days prior to the record date fixed for determining shareholders entitled to
participate in such dividend, distribution, redemption or repurchase, and Holder
shall have the right to participate in such dividend, distribution, redemption
or repurchase to the same extent Holder would have participated if it had
previously fully exercised this Warrant prior to such record date. The
provisions of this Section 5 shall not apply to distributions made in connection
with transactions covered by Section 3.
6. Preemptive Rights. From time to time after the date hereof, the
Company may issue additional shares of its capital stock (including Common
Stock) or warrants or options exercisable, or securities convertible, into such
capital stock (collectively, "Additional Stock"). Subject to the last Section of
this Section 6, if the Company proposes to issue Additional Stock to any Person,
Holder shall have the right, on or before the Expiration Date, to purchase up to
such number of shares of the Additional Stock that bears the same ratio to the
total number of shares of such Additional Stock as the number of shares of
Common Stock then owned by Holder (as determined on a Fully-Diluted Basis) bears
to the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock (as determined on a
Fully-Diluted Basis), upon the same price and terms of the Additional Stock
proposed to be issued. The Company shall give written notice to Holder at least
twenty (20) days prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock specifying in
reasonable detail the reason for the proposed issuance, the terms thereof and
the identity of the proposed purchaser, if any. If Holder intends to purchase a
portion of the Additional Stock, such Holder shall (within fifteen (15) days
following such written notice from the Company) deliver written notice of such
intention to the Company. The failure of Holder to give such a notice within
such time period of its intention to purchase Additional Stock shall be deemed
to be a waiver of Holder's right to purchase such Additional Stock. The closing
of the purchase of such Additional Stock shall be held at such time and place as
the Company shall determine, but in any event not later than fifteen (15) days
following the last date in which Holder shall have given notice of its intention
to exercise its rights under this Section 6. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Holder shall not have any such right to purchase Additional Stock if such
Additional Stock is to be issued (i) to employees, officers or directors of the
Company to the extent approved by the Board, (ii) as payment of all or any part
of the purchase price or merger consideration of any business or assets thereof
acquired by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (iii) to any lender in
connection with the incurrence of Indebtedness by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, or (iv) upon the exercise of any option or other right described
in any of clauses (i) through (iii).
4

7. Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of (a) any proposed
distribution of the assets of the Company in dissolution or liquidation, (b) a
Change of Control, or (c) a Sale, the Company shall mail notice thereof to
Holder upon the earlier of (x) thirty (30) days prior to the consummation or
completion of, and, as applicable, (y) the date of execution of a definitive
agreement providing for, any of the events described in (a), (b) and (c), and
shall make no dividend or distribution to shareholders until the expiration of
thirty (30) days from the date of mailing of such notice.
8. Fully Paid Stock; Taxes. The Company covenants that the shares of
capital stock represented by each and every certificate for the Common Stock to
be delivered on the exercise of the purchase rights herein shall, at the time of
such delivery, be duly authorized, validly issued and outstanding and fully paid
and nonassessable. The Company further covenants that it shall pay all expenses
in connection with the Issued Warrant Shares and the Issuable Warrant Shares.
The Company will pay all documentary stamp taxes attributable to the initial
issuance of the Warrant and of the Issued Warrant Shares upon the exercise of
the Warrant; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay
any tax or other governmental charge which may be payable in respect of any
transfer or exchange of any Warrant certificates or any certificates for Warrant
Shares in a name other than the registered holder of a Warrant certificate
surrendered upon the exercise of a Warrant. In any such case, no transfer or
exchange shall be made unless or until the person or persons requesting issuance
thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or other
governmental charge or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company
that such tax or other governmental charge has been paid or an exemption is
available therefrom.
9. Registration Rights Agreement. This Warrant and the Warrant Shares are
subject to, and entitled to the benefits, rights and options set forth in, the
Registration Rights Agreement.
10. Partial Exercise and Assignment. If this Warrant is exercised in part
only, Holder shall be entitled to receive a new Warrant, registered in the name
of Holder or its designee evidencing the right to purchase the aggregate amount
of Issuable Warrant Shares for which this Warrant was not exercised. Subject to
Section 11 of this Warrant, this Warrant may be assigned, in whole or in part,
by surrender of this Warrant to the Company with the assignment or partial
assignment, as the case may be, attached to this Warrant duly executed. If this
Warrant is partially assigned, a new Warrant shall be issued to Holder,
registered in the name of Holder or its designee, evidencing the right to
purchase the aggregate amount of Issuable Warrant Shares for which this Warrant
was not so assigned. The assignee shall receive a new Warrant, registered in the
name of such assignee or its designee and evidencing the right to purchase the
aggregate number of Issuable Warrant Shares for which this Warrant was so
assigned.
11. Restrictions on Transferability.
(a) Neither this Warrant nor the Issued Warrant Shares shall be
transferable except upon satisfaction of the conditions specified in this
Section 11 (which conditions are intended to ensure compliance with the
provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and any applicable state
securities laws). All transfers of this Warrant or the Issuable Warrant Shares
shall comply with these conditions as if the proposed transfer were a transfer
of the respective Issuable Warrant Shares.
(b) Each Warrant shall bear on the face thereof a legend substantially
in the form of the notice endorsed on the first page of this Warrant. Each
certificate representing Issued Warrant Shares
5
6
initially issued upon the exercise of any Warrant and each certificate issued to
a subsequent transferee of such certificate shall bear all legends and be
subject to the conditions set forth in this Warrant.
12. Certain Covenants.
(a) Requisite Approvals. The Company shall use its best efforts to
obtain all necessary or desirable approvals for the performance by the Company
of this Agreement (including without limitation the adjustments set forth in
Section 3) from whatsoever source required, including, but not limited to (i) at
the request of Holder, the Company's shareholders at the next meeting thereof,
whether annual or special, as called in the Company's discretion or otherwise in
accordance with the Company's bylaws, (ii) any governmental authority or
regulatory body of the United States or of any state required in connection with
the lawful issuance of the Warrant Shares.
(b) Access to Records. Each Loan Party shall use its best efforts to
make available all such records, including, without limitation, stock ledgers,
necessary for Holder to calculate the adjustments contemplated in Section 3
hereof.
(c) Board of Directors. As long as WBMCF and its direct transferees
collectively own an interest of fifty percent (50%) or more in either this
Warrant or the Issued Warrant Shares, the Company shall, unless otherwise
directed in writing by WBMCF, use its best efforts to ensure the recommendation
to the Shareholders of a representative designated by WBMCF for election to the
Board of Directors of the Company. Upon election to the Board of Directors of
the Company, the WBMCF representative shall be entitled to all benefits accorded
such position, including, without limitation, indemnification, reimbursement and
compensation in the same manner and form accorded to other Directors of the
Company from time to time. If such representative is not appointed (and until
such time as such representative is appointed) to the Board of Directors, the
Company shall permit a representative designated by WBMCF from time to time to
attend the meetings of the Board of Directors (or any committee thereof) as a
non-voting observer of such meeting. The right granted pursuant to the
immediately preceding sentence shall include the right to participate in
meetings but shall not limit the ability of the Board of Directors to take
action without a meeting to the extent permitted under the Delaware General
Corporation Law. Such observer shall be entitled to receive all written
materials and other information (including all materials distributed to the
Board of Directors and copies of meeting minutes) given to directors at the same
time such materials and information are given to the directors. The Company
shall pay all costs as are reasonably incurred by such observer in connection
with attendance of such observer of any meeting of the Board of Directors in a
manner consistent with the Company's policy then in effect with respect to
reimbursement of members of the Board of Directors.
13. Definitions.
In addition to the terms defined elsewhere in this Warrant, the
following terms shall have the meanings set forth below:
"Exercise Date" shall mean the date on which this Warrant is
exercised.
"Fair Market Value" per share of Common Stock shall mean, at any date
of determination thereof:
6
7
(a) if shares of Common Stock are listed or admitted to trading on any
national securities exchange or traded on any national market system, the
average of the daily closing prices for the thirty (30) trading days immediately
preceding such date, excluding any trades which are not bona fide, arms' length
transactions. The closing price for each day shall be the last sale price on
such date or, if no such sale takes place on such date, the average of the
closing bid and asked prices on such date, in each case as officially reported
on the principal national securities exchange or national market system on which
shares of Common Stock are then listed, admitted to trading or traded;
(b) if shares of Common Stock are not listed or admitted to trading on
any national securities exchange or traded on any national market system, the
average of the reported closing bid and asked prices thereof on such date in the
over-the-counter market as shown by the National Association of Securities
Dealers automated quotation system or, if shares of Common Stock are not then
quoted in such system, as published by the National Quotation Bureau,
Incorporated or any similar successor organization; or
(c) if shares of Common Stock are not listed or admitted to trading on
any national exchange or traded on any national market system and if no closing
bid and asked prices are then quoted or published in the over-the-counter
market, the price as determined in good faith by the agreement of Holder and the
Board of Directors of the Company; provided, however, that if Holder and the
Board of Directors of the Company cannot agree on a price within fifteen (15)
days after (as applicable) issuance of for which the Fair Market Value is being
determined pursuant to Sections 3(b) or 3(d), Holder and the Board of Directors
of the Company shall jointly retain a Valuation Firm experienced in the
appraisal of companies which are engaged in the business of the Company and
which is not an Affiliate of the Company or any shareholder thereof within seven
(7) days after the expiration of such fifteen (15) day period. If the Company
and Holder are unable to agree on the selection of a Valuation Firm within such
seven (7) day period, the Company and Holder, within seven (7) days after
expiration of such seven (7) day period, shall each select a Valuation Firm and
the two Valuation Firms so selected shall jointly select a third Valuation Firm
which shall make the determination of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock.
The Valuation Firm selected in accordance with the foregoing procedure shall be
instructed to determine such value within fifteen (15) days after selection and
any such determination shall be final and binding upon the parties. The fees and
expenses for such determination made by any Valuation Firm shall be borne by the
Company.
Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock shall be determined under clause
(c) by dividing the fair market value of the Company by the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding as of the date of determination, determined on a
Fully-Diluted Basis. In such determination of Fair Market Value, the following
specific principles shall be applied by the Valuation Firm:
(i) the Valuation Firm shall assume that all of the assets
and properties of the Company are sold as a going concern, on an
orderly basis (and not on a liquidation basis), at their fair market
values based on an enterprise value as of the Valuation Date;
(ii) the Valuation Firm shall assume that all indebtedness
of the Company is prepaid in full as of the Valuation Date (and, in
doing so, disregard the amount of any prepayment penalties, yield
enhancement premiums or the like) and that the Company has paid the
holders of preferred stock or similar securities, if any, amounts
payable thereon, the aggregate amount of which shall be taken into
account in arriving at the Fair Market Value; and
7
8
(iii) the Valuation Firm shall assume that the remaining
proceeds of such a sale are distributed pro rata on a Fully-Diluted
Basis to the shareholders of the Company.
"Fully-Diluted Basis" shall mean that number of shares of Common Stock
which would be outstanding, as of the date of computation, if (i) this Warrant,
(ii) all other warrants, options or other rights to subscribe for, purchase or
otherwise acquire Common Stock or (iii) securities (including debt securities)
convertible or exchangeable for Common Stock, including the Preferred Stock, had
been converted or fully exercised.
"Holder" shall mean WBMCF or such other Person in whose name this
Warrant is registered on the books of the Company maintained for such purpose.
"Issuable Warrant Shares" shall mean the number of shares of Common
Stock issuable from time to time upon exercise of this Warrant.
"Issued Warrant Shares" shall mean the cumulative total of the shares
of Common Stock issued from time to time as a result of all prior exercises of
this Warrant.
"Person" shall mean any individual, sole proprietorship, partnership,
limited liability company, joint venture, unincorporated organization,
association, corporation, trust, institution, entity or government.
"Public Offering" shall mean any offering by the Company of its
capital stock or equity securities to the public pursuant to an effective
registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 as then in effect, or
any comparable statement under any similar federal statute then in force.
"Registration Rights Agreement" shall mean that certain Registration
Rights Agreement, of even date herewith by and between the Company and WBMCF, as
amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, in
compliance with the terms thereto.
"Securities Act" shall mean the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or
any successor federal statute, and the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission promulgated thereunder, all as in effect from time to
time.
"Warrant" means this Warrant and all warrants hereafter issued in
exchange or substitution for this Warrant.
"Warrant Shares" shall mean the Issued Warrant Shares and the Issuable
Warrant Shares.
14. Replacement Warrants. If this Warrant shall be mutilated, lost, stolen
or destroyed, the Company may issue a new Warrant of like date, tenor and
denomination and deliver the same in exchange and substitution for and upon
surrender and cancellation of the mutilated Warrant, or in lieu of the Warrant
lost, stolen or destroyed, upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Company
of the loss, theft or destruction of such Warrant.
15. Warrant Holder Not a Shareholder. This Warrant does not confer upon
Holder any right to vote or to consent or to receive notice as a shareholder of
the Company, as such, in respect of any
8
9
matters whatsoever, or any other rights or liabilities as a shareholder, prior
to the exercise hereof as hereinbefore provided.
16. Notices. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices
referred to in this Warrant shall be in writing and shall be delivered pursuant
to the notice provisions of the Loan Agreement.
17. Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall
be interpreted in such manner as to be effective under applicable law, but if
any provision of this Warrant is held to be prohibited by or invalid under
applicable law in any jurisdiction, such provision shall be ineffective only to
the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating any other
provision of this Agreement.
18. Survival. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
the provisions of Sections 6 and 12 hereof shall survive the exercise of this
Warrant in full by Holder and shall continue to be in full force and effect and
inure to the benefit of the shareholders owning the Issued Warrant Shares until
such time as there are no longer outstanding any Issued Warrant Shares.
19. Captions: Governing Law. The descriptive headings of the various
sections of this Warrant are for convenience only and shall not affect the
meaning or construction of the provisions hereof. All questions concerning the
construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be
governed by the internal law of the State of Illinois without giving effect to
any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule.
20. Action by Holder. Unless otherwise expressly provided for herein, any
action entitled to be taken by Holder owning the Issued Warrant Shares shall
require the consent of the holders of at least a majority of the shares of
Common Stock issued or issuable to holders of Company Warrants at the time such
action is taken.
