STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for value received, AJW Partners, Inc. or its
registered assigns, is entitled to purchase from Insynq, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), at any time or from time to time during the period
specified in Paragraph 2 hereof, Three Hundred Sixty-Six Thousand, Six Hundred
Sixty-Eight (366,668) fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Company's
Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), at an exercise
price per share equal to the lesser of (i) $.04 and (ii) the average of lowest
three (3) Trading Prices (as defined below) during the twenty (20) Trading Days
(as defined below) immediately prior to exercise (the "Exercise Price"). The
term "Warrant Shares," as used herein, refers to the shares of Common Stock
purchasable hereunder. The Warrant Shares and the Exercise Price are subject
to adjustment as provided in Paragraph 4 hereof. The term "Warrants" means
this Warrant and the other warrants issued pursuant to that certain Securities
Purchase Agreement, dated June 29, 2001, by and among the Company and the
Buyers listed on the execution page thereof (the "Securities Purchase
Agreement"). "Trading Price" means, for any security as of any date, the
inter-day trading price on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board (the "OTCBB") as
reported by Bloomberg Financial Markets or an equivalent, reliable reporting
service mutually acceptable to and hereafter designated by Holders of a
majority in interest of the Debentures ("Bloomberg") or, if the OTCBB is not
the principal trading market for such security, the inter-day trading price of
such security on the principal securities exchange or trading market where such
security is listed or traded as reported by Bloomberg or, if no inter-day
trading price of such security is available in any of the foregoing manners,
the average of the inter-day trading prices of any market makers for such
security that are listed in the "pink sheets" by the National Quotation Bureau,
Inc. If the Trading Price cannot be calculated for such security on such date
in the manner provided above, the Trading Price shall be the fair market value
as mutually determined by the Corporation and the holders of a majority in
interest of the Debentures being converted for which the calculation of the
Trading Price is required in order to determine the Conversion Price of such
Debentures. "Trading Day" shall mean any day on which the Common Sock is
traded for any period on the OTCBB, or on the principal securities exchange or
other securities market on which the Common Stock is then being traded.
This Warrant is subject to the following terms, provisions, and
conditions:
1. MANNER OF EXERCISE; ISSUANCE OF CERTIFICATES; PAYMENT FOR SHARES.
Subject to the provisions hereof, this Warrant may be exercised by the holder
hereof, in whole or in part, by the surrender of this Warrant, together with a
completed exercise agreement in the form attached hereto (the "Exercise
Agreement"), to the Company during normal business hours on any business day at
the Company's principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of
the Company as it may designate by notice to the holder hereof), and upon
(i) payment to the Company in cash, by certified or official bank check or by
wire transfer for the account of the Company of the Exercise Price for the
Warrant Shares specified in the Exercise Agreement or (ii) if the resale of the
Warrant Shares by the holder is not then registered pursuant to an effective
registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"), delivery to the Company of a written notice of an election
to effect a "Cashless Exercise" (as defined in Section 11(c) below) for the
Warrant Shares specified in the Exercise Agreement. The Warrant Shares so
purchased shall be deemed to be issued to the holder hereof or such holder's
designee, as the record owner of such shares, as of the close of business on
the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered, the completed
Exercise Agreement shall have been delivered, and payment shall have been made
for such shares as set forth above. Certificates for the Warrant Shares so
purchased, representing the aggregate number of shares specified in the
Exercise Agreement, shall be delivered to the holder hereof within a reasonable
time, not exceeding three (3) business days, after this Warrant shall have been
so exercised. The certificates so delivered shall be in such denominations as
may be requested by the holder hereof and shall be registered in the name of
such holder or such other name as shall be designated by such holder. If this
Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, then, unless this Warrant has
expired, the Company shall, at its expense, at the time of delivery of such
certificates, deliver to the holder a new Warrant representing the number of
shares with respect to which this Warrant shall not then have been exercised.
In addition to all other available remedies at law or in equity, if the Company
fails to deliver certificates for the Warrant Shares within three (3) business
days after this Warrant is exercised, then the Company shall pay to the holder
in cash a penalty (the "Penalty") equal to 2% of the number of Warrant Shares
that the Holder is entitled to multiplied by the Market Price for each day that
the Company fails to deliver certificates for the Warrant Shares. For example,
if the Holder is entitled to 100,000 Warrant Shares and the Market Price is
$2.00, then the Company shall pay to the Holder $4,000 for each day that the
Company fails to deliver certificates for the Warrant Shares. The Penalty
shall be paid to the Holder by the fifth (5th) day of the month following the
month in which it has accrued.
Notwithstanding anything in this Warrant to the contrary, in no event
shall the holder of this Warrant be entitled to exercise a number of Warrants
(or portions thereof) in excess of the number of Warrants (or portions thereof)
upon exercise of which the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock
beneficially owned by the holder and its affiliates (other than shares of
Common Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of
the unexercised Warrants and the unexercised or unconverted portion of any
other securities of the Company (including the Debentures (as defined in the
Securities Purchase Agreement)) subject to a limitation on conversion or
exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein) and (ii) the number of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (or portions
thereof) with respect to which the determination described herein is being
made, would result in beneficial ownership by the holder and its affiliates of
more than 4.9% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. For purposes of the
immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in
accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, and Regulation 13D-G thereunder, except as otherwise provided in
clause (i) of the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, the limitation on exercise of this Warrant set forth herein
may not be amended without (i) the written consent of the holder hereof and the
Company and (ii) the approval of a majority of shareholders of the Company.
2. PERIOD OF EXERCISE. This Warrant is exercisable at any time or from
time to time on or after the date on which this Warrant is issued and delivered
pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement and before 5:00
p.m., New York City, New York time, on the second (2nd) anniversary of the date
of issuance (the "Exercise Period").
3. CERTAIN AGREEMENTS OF THE COMPANY. The Company hereby covenants and
agrees as follows:
(a) SHARES TO BE FULLY PAID. All Warrant Shares will, upon issuance
in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, be validly issued, fully paid,
and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens, and charges with respect to
the issue thereof.
(b) RESERVATION OF SHARES. During the Exercise Period, the Company
shall at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of issuance
upon exercise of this Warrant, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to
provide for the exercise of this Warrant.
(c) LISTING. The Company shall promptly secure the listing of the
shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant upon each national
securities exchange or automated quotation system, if any, upon which shares of
Common Stock are then listed (subject to official notice of issuance upon
exercise of this Warrant) and shall maintain, so long as any other shares of
Common Stock shall be so listed, such listing of all shares of Common Stock
from time to time issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant; and the Company
shall so list on each national securities exchange or automated quotation
system, as the case may be, and shall maintain such listing of, any other
shares of capital stock of the Company issuable upon the exercise of this
Warrant if and so long as any shares of the same class shall be listed on such
national securities exchange or automated quotation system.
(d) CERTAIN ACTIONS PROHIBITED. The Company will not, by amendment
of its charter or through any 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 by it hereunder, but will at all times
in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant
and in the taking of all such action as may reasonably be requested by the
holder of this Warrant in order to protect the exercise privilege of the holder
of this Warrant against dilution or other impairment, consistent with the tenor
and purpose of this Warrant. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the Company (i) will not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock
receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in
effect, and (ii) will take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate
in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and
nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant.
(e) SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Warrant will be binding upon any
entity succeeding to the Company by merger, consolidation, or acquisition of
all or substantially all the Company's assets.
4. ANTIDILUTION PROVISIONS. During the Exercise Period, the Exercise
Price and the number of Warrant Shares shall be subject to adjustment from time
to time as provided in this Paragraph 4.
In the event that any adjustment of the Exercise Price as required herein
results in a fraction of a cent, such Exercise Price shall be rounded up to the
nearest cent.
(a) ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF SHARES UPON ISSUANCE
OF COMMON STOCK. Except as otherwise provided in Paragraphs 4(c) and 4(e)
hereof, if and whenever on or after the date of issuance of this Warrant, the
Company issues or sells, or in accordance with Paragraph 4(b) hereof is deemed
to have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock for no consideration or for
a consideration per share (before deduction of reasonable expenses or
commissions or underwriting discounts or allowances in connection therewith)
less than the Market Price (as hereinafter defined) on the date of issuance
(a "Dilutive Issuance"), then immediately upon the Dilutive Issuance, the
Exercise Price will be reduced to a price determined by multiplying the
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the Dilutive Issuance by a
fraction, (i) the numerator of which is an amount equal to the sum of (x) the
number of shares of Common Stock actually outstanding immediately prior to the
Dilutive Issuance, plus (y) the quotient of the aggregate consideration,
calculated as set forth in Paragraph 4(b) hereof, received by the Company upon
such Dilutive Issuance divided by the Market Price in effect immediately prior
to the Dilutive Issuance, and (ii) the denominator of which is the total number
of shares of Common Stock Deemed Outstanding (as defined below) immediately
after the Dilutive Issuance.
(b) EFFECT ON EXERCISE PRICE OF CERTAIN EVENTS. For purposes of
determining the adjusted Exercise Price under Paragraph 4(a) hereof, the
following will be applicable:
(i) ISSUANCE OF RIGHTS OR OPTIONS. If the Company in any
manner issues or grants any warrants, rights or options, whether or not
immediately exercisable, to subscribe for or to purchase Common Stock or other
securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock ("Convertible
Securities") (such warrants, rights and options to purchase Common Stock or
Convertible Securities are hereinafter referred to as "Options") and the price
per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such Options
is less than the Market Price on the date of issuance or grant of such Options,
then the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
exercise of all such Options will, as of the date of the issuance or grant of
such Options, be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by
the Company for such price per share. For purposes of the preceding sentence,
the "price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of
such Options" is determined by dividing (i) the total amount, if any, received
or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issuance or granting of
all such Options, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional
consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the exercise of all such
Options, plus, in the case of Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise
of such Options, the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration
payable upon the conversion or exchange thereof at the time such Convertible
Securities first become convertible or exchangeable, by (ii) the maximum total
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of all such Options
(assuming full conversion of Convertible Securities, if applicable). No
further adjustment to the Exercise Price will be made upon the actual issuance
of such Common Stock upon the exercise of such Options or upon the conversion
or exchange of Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of such Options.
(ii) ISSUANCE OF CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES. If the Company in any
manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities, whether or not immediately
convertible (other than where the same are issuable upon the exercise of
Options) and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon such
conversion or exchange is less than the Market Price on the date of issuance,
then the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities will, as of the date
of the issuance of such Convertible Securities, be deemed to be outstanding and
to have been issued and sold by the Company for such price per share. For the
purposes of the preceding sentence, the "price per share for which Common Stock
is issuable upon such conversion or exchange" is determined by dividing (i) the
total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration
for the issuance or sale of all such Convertible Securities, plus the minimum
aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company
upon the conversion or exchange thereof at the time such Convertible Securities
first become convertible or exchangeable, by (ii) the maximum total number of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or exchange of all such
Convertible Securities. No further adjustment to the Exercise Price will be
made upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange
of such Convertible Securities.
(iii) CHANGE IN OPTION PRICE OR CONVERSION RATE. If there is a
change at any time in (i) the amount of additional consideration payable to the
Company upon the exercise of any Options; (ii) the amount of additional
consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the conversion or exchange
of any Convertible Securities; or (iii) the rate at which any Convertible
Securities are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock (other than
under or by reason of provisions designed to protect against dilution), the
Exercise Price in effect at the time of such change will be readjusted to the
Exercise Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Options or
Convertible Securities still outstanding provided for such changed additional
consideration or changed conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time
initially granted, issued or sold.
(iv) TREATMENT OF EXPIRED OPTIONS AND UNEXERCISED CONVERTIBLE
SECURITIES. If, in any case, the total number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of any Option or upon conversion or exchange of any
Convertible Securities is not, in fact, issued and the rights to exercise such
Option or to convert or exchange such Convertible Securities shall have expired
or terminated, the Exercise Price then in effect will be readjusted to the
Exercise Price which would have been in effect at the time of such expiration
or termination had such Option or Convertible Securities, to the extent
outstanding immediately prior to such expiration or termination (other than in
respect of the actual number of shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise or
conversion thereof), never been issued.
(v) CALCULATION OF CONSIDERATION RECEIVED. If any Common
Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued, granted or sold for cash,
the consideration received therefor for purposes of this Warrant will be the
amount received by the Company therefor, before deduction of reasonable
commissions, underwriting discounts or allowances or other reasonable expenses
paid or incurred by the Company in connection with such issuance, grant or
sale. In case any Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued
or sold for a consideration part or all of which shall be other than cash, the
amount of the consideration other than cash received by the Company will be the
fair value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of
securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the Company
will be the Market Price thereof as of the date of receipt. In case any Common
Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued in connection with any
acquisition, merger or consolidation in which the Company is the surviving
corporation, the amount of consideration therefor will be deemed to be the fair
value of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving
corporation as is attributable to such Common Stock, Options or Convertible
Securities, as the case may be. The fair value of any consideration other than
cash or securities will be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors
of the Company.
(vi) EXCEPTIONS TO ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE. No adjustment
to the Exercise Price will be made (i) upon the exercise of any warrants,
options or convertible securities granted, issued and outstanding on the date
of issuance of this Warrant; (ii) upon the grant or exercise of any stock or
options which may hereafter be granted or exercised under any employee benefit
plan, stock option plan or restricted stock plan of the Company now existing or
to be implemented in the future, so long as the issuance of such stock or
options is approved by a majority of the independent members of the Board of
Directors of the Company or a majority of the members of a committee of
independent directors established for such purpose; or (iii) upon the exercise
of the Warrants.
(c) SUBDIVISION OR COMBINATION OF COMMON STOCK. If the Company at
any time subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization,
reorganization, reclassification or otherwise) the shares of Common Stock
acquirable hereunder into a greater number of shares, then, after the date of
record for effecting such subdivision, the Exercise Price in effect immediately
prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. If the Company at
any time combines (by reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization,
reclassification or otherwise) the shares of Common Stock acquirable hereunder
into a smaller number of shares, then, after the date of record for effecting
such combination, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such
combination will be proportionately increased.
(d) ADJUSTMENT IN NUMBER OF SHARES. Upon each adjustment of the
Exercise Price pursuant to the provisions of this Paragraph 4, the number of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted
by multiplying a number equal to the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior
to such adjustment by the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the
product so obtained by the adjusted Exercise Price.
(e) CONSOLIDATION, MERGER OR SALE. In case of any consolidation of
the Company with, or merger of the Company into any other corporation, or in
case of any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Company other than in connection with a plan of complete liquidation of the
Company, then as a condition of such consolidation, merger or sale or
conveyance, adequate provision will be made whereby the holder of this Warrant
will have the right to acquire and receive upon exercise of this Warrant in
lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore acquirable upon the
exercise of this Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or assets as may be
issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for the number of shares of
Common Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon exercise of
this Warrant had such consolidation, merger or sale or conveyance not taken
place. In any such case, the Company will make appropriate provision to insure
that the provisions of this Paragraph 4 hereof will thereafter be applicable as
nearly as may be in relation to any shares of stock or securities thereafter
deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company will not effect any
consolidation, merger or sale or conveyance unless prior to the consummation
thereof, the successor corporation (if other than the Company) assumes by
written instrument the obligations under this Paragraph 4 and the obligations
to deliver to the holder of this Warrant such shares of stock, securities or
assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the holder may be
entitled to acquire.
(f) DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS. In case the Company shall declare or
make any distribution of its assets (including cash) to holders of Common Stock
as a partial liquidating dividend, by way of return of capital or otherwise,
then, after the date of record for determining stockholders entitled to such
distribution, but prior to the date of distribution, the holder of this Warrant
shall be entitled upon exercise of this Warrant for the purchase of any or all
of the shares of Common Stock subject hereto, to receive the amount of such
assets which would have been payable to the holder had such holder been the
holder of such shares of Common Stock on the record date for the determination
of stockholders entitled to such distribution.
(g) NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENT. Upon the occurrence of any event which
requires any adjustment of the Exercise Price, then, and in each such case, the
Company shall give notice thereof to the holder of this Warrant, which notice
shall state the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment and the increase
or decrease in the number of Warrant Shares purchasable at such price upon
exercise, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the
facts upon which such calculation is based. Such calculation shall be
certified by the Chief Financial Officer of the Company.
(h) MINIMUM ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE. No adjustment of the
Exercise Price shall be made in an amount of less than 1% of the Exercise Price
in effect at the time such adjustment is otherwise required to be made, but any
such lesser adjustment shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time
and together with the next subsequent adjustment which, together with any
adjustments so carried forward, shall amount to not less than 1% of such
Exercise Price.
(i) NO FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares of Common Stock are
to be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but the Company shall pay a
cash adjustment in respect of any fractional share which would otherwise be
issuable in an amount equal to the same fraction of the Market Price of a share
of Common Stock on the date of such exercise.
(j) OTHER NOTICES. In case at any time:
(i) the Company shall declare any dividend upon the Common
Stock payable in shares of stock of any class or make any other distribution
(including dividends or distributions payable in cash out of retained earnings)
to the holders of the Common Stock;
(ii) the Company shall offer for subscription pro rata to the
holders of the Common Stock any additional shares of stock of any class or
other rights;
(iii) there shall be any capital reorganization of the Company,
or reclassification of the Common Stock, or consolidation or merger of the
Company with or into, or sale of all or substantially all its assets to,
another corporation or entity; or
(iv) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution,
liquidation or winding-up of the Company;
then, in each such case, the Company shall give to the holder of this Warrant
(a) notice of the date on which the books of the Company shall close or a
record shall be taken for determining the holders of Common Stock entitled to
receive any such dividend, distribution, or subscription rights or for
determining the holders of Common Stock entitled to vote in respect of any such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution,
liquidation or winding-up and (b) in the case of any such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or
winding-up, notice of the date (or, if not then known, a reasonable
approximation thereof by the Company) when the same shall take place. Such
notice shall also specify the date on which the holders of Common Stock shall
be entitled to receive such dividend, distribution, or subscription rights or
to exchange their Common Stock for stock or other securities or property
deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger,
sale, dissolution, liquidation, or winding-up, as the case may be. Such notice
shall be given at least 30 days prior to the record date or the date on which
the Company's books are closed in respect thereto. Failure to give any such
notice or any defect therein shall not affect the validity of the proceedings
referred to in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above.
(k) CERTAIN EVENTS. If any event occurs of the type contemplated by
the adjustment provisions of this Paragraph 4 but not expressly provided for by
such provisions, the Company will give notice of such event as provided in
Paragraph 4(g) hereof, and the Company's Board of Directors will make an
appropriate adjustment in the Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common
Stock acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant so that the rights of the holder
shall be neither enhanced nor diminished by such event.
(l) CERTAIN DEFINITIONS.
(i) "COMMON STOCK DEEMED OUTSTANDING" shall mean the number
of shares of Common Stock actually outstanding (not including shares of
Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company), plus (x) pursuant to
Paragraph 4(b)(i) hereof, the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon the exercise of Options, as of the date of such issuance or grant
of such Options, if any, and (y) pursuant to Paragraph 4(b)(ii) hereof, the
maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or
exchange of Convertible Securities, as of the date of issuance of such
Convertible Securities, if any.
(ii) "MARKET PRICE," as of any date, (i) means the average of
the last reported sale prices for the shares of Common Stock on the OTCBB for
the five (5) Trading Days immediately preceding such date as reported by
Bloomberg, or (ii) if the OTCBB is not the principal trading market for the
shares of Common Stock, the average of the last reported sale prices on the
principal trading market for the Common Stock during the same period as
reported by Bloomberg, or (iii) if market value cannot be calculated as of such
date on any of the foregoing bases, the Market Price shall be the fair market
value as reasonably determined in good faith by (a) the Board of Directors of
the Corporation or, at the option of a majority-in-interest of the holders of
the outstanding Warrants by (b) an independent investment bank of nationally
recognized standing in the valuation of businesses similar to the business of
the corporation. The manner of determining the Market Price of the Common Stock
set forth in the foregoing definition shall apply with respect to any other
security in respect of which a determination as to market value must be made
hereunder.
(iii) "COMMON STOCK," for purposes of this Paragraph 4, includes
the Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, and any additional class of stock
of the Company having no preference as to dividends or distributions on
liquidation, provided that the shares purchasable pursuant to this Warrant
shall include only shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, in
respect of which this Warrant is exercisable, or shares resulting from any
subdivision or combination of such Common Stock, or in the case of any
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, or sale of the
character referred to in Paragraph 4(e) hereof, the stock or other securities
or property provided for in such Paragraph.
5. ISSUE TAX. The issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares upon the
exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the holder of this
Warrant or such shares for any issuance tax or other costs in respect thereof,
provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be
payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any
certificate in a name other than the holder of this Warrant.
6. NO RIGHTS OR LIABILITIES AS A SHAREHOLDER. This Warrant shall not
entitle the holder hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder
of the Company. No provision of this Warrant, in the absence of affirmative
action by the holder hereof to purchase Warrant Shares, and no mere enumeration
herein of the rights or privileges of the holder hereof, shall give rise to any
liability of such holder for the Exercise Price or as a shareholder of the
Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of
the Company.
7. TRANSFER, EXCHANGE, AND REPLACEMENT OF WARRANT.
(a) RESTRICTION ON TRANSFER. This Warrant and the rights granted to
the holder hereof are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this
Warrant, together with a properly executed assignment in the form attached
hereto, at the office or agency of the Company referred to in Paragraph 7(e)
below, provided, however, that any transfer or assignment shall be subject to
the conditions set forth in Paragraph 7(f) hereof and to the applicable
provisions of the Securities Purchase Agreement. Until due presentment for
registration of transfer on the books of the Company, the Company may treat the
registered holder hereof as the owner and holder hereof for all purposes, and
the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the registration
rights described in Paragraph 8 are assignable only in accordance with the
provisions of that certain Registration Rights Agreement, of even date
herewith, by and among the Company and the other signatories thereto (the
"Registration Rights Agreement").
(b) WARRANT EXCHANGEABLE FOR DIFFERENT DENOMINATIONS. This Warrant
is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the holder hereof at the office
or agency of the Company referred to in Paragraph 7(e) below, for new Warrants
of like tenor representing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of
shares of Common Stock which may be purchased hereunder, each of such new
Warrants to represent the right to purchase such number of shares as shall be
designated by the holder hereof at the time of such surrender.
(c) REPLACEMENT OF WARRANT. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction, or mutilation of
this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft, or destruction, upon
delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount
to the Company, or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and
cancellation of this Warrant, the Company, at its expense, will execute and
deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.
(d) CANCELLATION; PAYMENT OF EXPENSES. Upon the surrender of this
Warrant in connection with any transfer, exchange, or replacement as provided
in this Paragraph 7, this Warrant shall be promptly canceled by the Company.
The Company shall pay all taxes (other than securities transfer taxes) and all
other expenses (other than legal expenses, if any, incurred by the holder or
transferees) and charges payable in connection with the preparation, execution,
and delivery of Warrants pursuant to this Paragraph 7.
(e) REGISTER. The Company shall maintain, at its principal
executive offices (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may
designate by notice to the holder hereof), a register for this Warrant, in
which the Company shall record the name and address of the person in whose name
this Warrant has been issued, as well as the name and address of each
transferee and each prior owner of this Warrant.
(f) EXERCISE OR TRANSFER WITHOUT REGISTRATION. If, at the time of
the surrender of this Warrant in connection with any exercise, transfer, or
exchange of this Warrant, this Warrant (or, in the case of any exercise, the
Warrant Shares issuable hereunder), shall not be registered under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and under applicable
state securities or blue sky laws, the Company may require, as a condition of
allowing such exercise, transfer, or exchange, (i) that the holder or
transferee of this Warrant, as the case may be, furnish to the Company a
written opinion of counsel, which opinion and counsel are acceptable to the
Company, to the effect that such exercise, transfer, or exchange may be made
without registration under said Act and under applicable state securities or
blue sky laws, (ii) that the holder or transferee execute and deliver to the

11. MISCELLANEOUS.
(a) AMENDMENTS. This Warrant and any provision hereof may only be
amended by an instrument in writing signed by the Company and the holder
hereof.
(b) DESCRIPTIVE HEADINGS. The descriptive headings of the several
paragraphs of this Warrant are inserted for purposes of reference only, and
shall not affect the meaning or construction of any of the provisions hereof.
(c) CASHLESS EXERCISE. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Warrant, if the resale of the Warrant Shares by the holder is
not then registered pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act, this Warrant may be exercised by presentation and surrender of
this Warrant to the Company at its principal executive offices with a written
notice of the holder's intention to effect a cashless exercise, including a
calculation of the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon such
exercise in accordance with the terms hereof (a "Cashless Exercise"). In the
event of a Cashless Exercise, in lieu of paying the Exercise Price in cash, the
holder shall surrender this Warrant for that number of shares of Common Stock
determined by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares to which it would
otherwise be entitled by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the
difference between the then current Market Price per share of the Common Stock
and the Exercise Price, and the denominator of which shall be the then current
Market Price per share of Common Stock. For example, if the holder is
exercising 100,000 Warrants with a per Warrant exercise price of $0.75 per
share through a cashless exercise when the Common Stock's current Market Price
per share is $2.00 per share, then upon such Cashless Exercise the holder will
receive 62,500 shares of Common Stock.
(d) REMEDIES. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its
obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the holder, by vitiating
the intent and purpose of the transaction contemplated hereby. Accordingly,
the Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations
under this Warrant will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or
threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this Warrant, that the
holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies at law or
in equity, and in addition to the penalties assessable herein, to an injunction
or injunctions restraining, preventing or curing any breach of this Warrant and
to enforce specifically the terms and provisions thereof, without the necessity
of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.
