of
the Holder hereof, acknowledge in writing its continuing obligation to afford
to
such Holder all rights to which such Holder shall continue to be entitled
after
such exercise in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. If the Holder
shall fail to make any such request, such failure shall not affect the
continuing obligation of the Company to afford to such Holder any such
rights.

1.6 Trustee
for Warrant Holders.
In the
event that a bank or trust company shall have been appointed as trustee for
the
Holder of the Warrants pursuant to Section
2.3
or
2.4,
such
bank or trust company shall have all the powers and duties of a Warrant Agent
(as hereinafter defined) and shall accept, in its own name for the account
of
the Company or such successor person as may be entitled thereto, all amounts
otherwise payable to the Company or such successor, as the case may be, on
exercise of this Warrant pursuant to this Section
1.
1.7 Delivery
of Stock Certificates, etc. on Exercise.
The
Company agrees that the shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of
this
Warrant shall be deemed to be issued to the Holder hereof as the record owner
of
such shares as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant
shall
have been surrendered and payment made for such shares as aforesaid.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holder may, upon written notice delivered
to
the Company concurrently with the surrender of this Warrant for exercise
as
provided in Section
1,
elect
that the exercise of all or any portion of this Warrant be conditioned upon
the
consummation of any transaction or event, in which case (a) such exercise
shall
not be deemed to be effective unless and until the consummation of such
transaction or event occurs and (b) such exercise may be revoked by the Holder
at any time prior to the consummation of such transaction or event. If such
transaction or event is not consummated or is so revoked, the Company shall
promptly return the surrendered Warrant to such Holder, unless otherwise
instructed by such Holder. As soon as practicable after the exercise of this
Warrant in full or in part, and in any event within four (4) business days
thereafter, the Company at its sole expense (including the payment by it
of any
applicable issue taxes) will cause to be issued in the name of and delivered
to
the Holder hereof, or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any
applicable transfer taxes) may direct in compliance with applicable securities
laws, (i) a certificate or certificates for the number of duly authorized,
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock (or Other
Securities) to which such Holder shall be entitled on such exercise, plus,
in
lieu of any fractional share to which such Holder would otherwise be entitled,
one full share of Common Stock, together with any other stock or other
securities and property (including cash, where applicable) to which such
Holder
is entitled upon such exercise pursuant to Section
1
or
otherwise and (ii) in case such exercise is in part only, a new Warrant or
Warrants as set forth in Section
1.3.
4
1.8 Cashless
Exercise.
If at
any time after April 14, 2008, the Warrant Shares cannot be sold without
restriction pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”),
with
a current prospectus available, in lieu of exercising this Warrant in the
manner
set forth in Section
1.2
or
1.3
above,
then the Warrant may be exercised by surrender of the Warrant without payment
of
any other consideration, commission or remuneration and by delivery of an
original or facsimile copy of the form of cashless exercise subscription
attached as Exhibit
B
hereto
(the “Cashless
Exercise Subscription Form”)
duly
executed by such Holder. The Holder shall be entitled to receive the number
of
Warrant Shares equal to the quotient determined by dividing [(A-B) x C] by
A,
where:
A
=
the
Fair
Market Value of one share of Common Stock on the date of receipt of the Cashless
Exercise Subscription Form;
B
=
the
Purchase Price per share then in effect; and
C
= The
number
of Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise of the Warrant, or part
thereof,
had the Warrant been exercised with a cash payment.
2. Adjustment
of
Warrant Shares Issuable Upon Exercise.
2.1 General;
Number of Warrant Shares.
The
number of Warrant Shares that the Holder shall be entitled to receive upon
each
exercise hereof shall be determined by multiplying the number of Warrant
Shares
that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section
2)
be
issuable upon such exercise, as designated by the Holder pursuant to
Section
1,
by a
fraction (a) the numerator of which is the Purchase Price and (b) the
denominator of which is the Purchase Price in effect on the date of such
exercise.
2.2 Reorganization,
Consolidation, Merger, etc.
(a)
In
case at any time or from time to time, the Company shall (i) effect a
reorganization or reclassification of the Warrant Shares or its Common Stock,
(ii) consolidate with or merge into any other Person and shall not be the
continuing or surviving corporation of such consolidation or merger, (iii)
permit any other Person to consolidate with or merge into the Company and
the
Company shall be the continuing or surviving Person but, in connection with
such
consolidation or merger, the Warrant Shares or the Common Stock shall be
changed
into or exchanged for stock or other securities of any other Person or cash
or
any other property, or (iv) transfer all or substantially all of its properties
or assets to any other Person, then, in each such case, as a condition to
the
consummation of such a transaction, proper and adequate provision shall be
made
by the Company whereby the Holder of this Warrant, on the exercise hereof
as
provided in Section
1,
at any
time after the consummation of such transaction, shall receive, in lieu of
the
Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such
consummation, the greatest amount of stock and other securities and property
(including cash) to which such Holder would have been entitled as an equity
holder upon such consummation if such Holder had so exercised this Warrant,
immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment thereafter as
provided in this Section
2.
5
(b)
In
case at any time within 180 days after the Issue Date, the Company shall
issue
(i) shares of Common Stock at a purchase price less than the Purchase Price
or
(ii) securities that are convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for shares
of
Common Stock (except in connection with (A) the Company’s issuance of Common
Stock or the issuances or grants of options to purchase Common Stock pursuant
to
a Company employee benefit plan in effect as of the Issue Date, (B) as a
result
of the exercise of any option, warrant, or other right to acquire shares
of
Common Stock existing or outstanding as of the Issue Date, (C) as the result
of
the conversion or exchange of any securities outstanding as of the Issue
Date
that are convertible or exchangeable into shares of Common Stock, or (C)
as a
result of the exercise of this Warrant (collectively, the “Excepted
Issuances”),
for a
price or value less than the Purchase Price (such shares of Common Stock
and,
together with such shares of Common Stock into which such securities are
convertible, exercisable or exchangeable, the “Additional
Shares”),
the
number of Warrant Shares that the Holder shall be entitled to receive upon
the
exercise hereof shall automatically and without any further action be increased
by the product of the Additional Shares multiplied by 9.99% and the Purchase
Price for such additional Warrant Shares shall be the Purchase Price in effect
on the date of such issuance.
2.3 Dissolution.
In the
event of any dissolution of the Company following the transfer of all or
substantially all of its properties or assets, the Company, prior to such
dissolution, shall at its expense (a) appoint a bank or trust company (a
“Trustee”)
having
its principal office in Houston, TX and otherwise reasonably satisfactory
to the
Holder, as trustee for the Holder of the Warrants, pursuant to documentation
reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and (b) deliver or cause to be delivered
to such Trustee the stock and other securities and property (including cash,
where applicable) receivable by the Holder of the Warrants after the effective
date of such dissolution pursuant to this Section
2.
2.4 Continuation
of Terms.
Upon
any reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or transfer (and
any
dissolution following any transfer) referred to in this Section
2,
this
Warrant shall continue in full force and effect and the terms hereof shall
be
applicable to the Other Securities and property (including cash, where
applicable) receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant after the consummation
of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation or merger or the
effective date of dissolution following any such transfer, as the case may
be,
and shall be binding upon the issuer of any Other Securities, including,
in the
case of any such transfer, the Person acquiring all or substantially all
of the
properties or assets of the Company, whether or not such person shall have
expressly assumed the terms of this Warrant. In the event (a) this Warrant
does
not continue in full force and effect after the consummation of the transactions
described in this Section
2,
or (b)
the Holders do not receive an opinion of counsel for any Person (other than
the
Company) that may be required to deliver any Other Securities and property
receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant as provided herein, which opinion
of counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to such Holder, stating that
this
Warrant shall thereafter continue in full force and effect and the terms
hereof
shall be applicable to the Other Securities and property that such Person
may be
required to deliver upon any exercise of this Warrant or the exercise of
any
rights pursuant thereto, then the Company shall appoint a Trustee in accordance
with Section
2.3
and
deliver to such Trustee all of the Company’s securities and property (including
cash, where applicable) receivable by the Holder of the Warrants as contemplated
by this Section
2.
6
2.5 Extraordinary
Events Regarding Common Stock.
In the
event that the Company shall (a) subdivide (by any stock split, stock dividend,
recapitalization or otherwise) its outstanding shares of Common Stock into
a
greater number of shares of Common Stock or pays a dividend or makes a
distribution to holders of the shares of Common Stock in the form of additional
shares of Common Stock, or (b) combine its outstanding shares of the Common
Stock into a smaller number of shares of the Common Stock, then, in each
such
event, the Purchase Price shall, simultaneously with the happening of such
event, be adjusted by multiplying the then Purchase Price by a fraction,
the
numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such event and the denominator of which shall be the
number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the
product so obtained shall thereafter be the Purchase Price then in effect.
The
Purchase Price, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon
the
happening of any successive event or events described herein in this
Section
2.
3. Other
Dilutive Events. If
any
event shall occur as to which the provisions of Section
2
is not
strictly applicable but with respect to which the failure to make any adjustment
would not fairly protect the Holders or fairly preserve and give effect to
the
anti-dilution rights represented by this Warrant in accordance with its
essential intent and principles, then, in each such case, the Company shall
promptly adjust (the “Company
Dilutive Adjustment”),
on a
basis consistent with the essential intent and principles established in
Section
2,
the
shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on the exercise of
the
Warrants to the extent necessary to preserve, without dilution, the rights
represented by this Warrant. If the Holder shall object to the adjustment
or the
facts upon which such adjustment is based, the Holder shall prepare a
calculation of what it believes to be the proper adjustment (the “Holder
Dilutive Adjustment”)
and
submit such calculation to the Company; provided,
that,
the
Company Dilutive Adjustment shall remain in effect regardless of any dispute
by
the Holder of such adjustment. If the Company and the Holder cannot agree
upon a
final adjustment within ten (10) days after the Company’s receipt of such
notice, the difference between the Company Dilutive Adjustment, as such
adjustment was readjusted in writing and delivered to the Holder prior to
the
initiation by written demand of arbitration hereby (the “Adjusted
Company Dilutive Adjustment”),
and
the Holder Dilutive Adjustment, as such adjustment was readjusted in writing
and
delivered to the Company prior to the initiation by written demand of
arbitration hereby (the “Adjusted
Holder Dilutive Adjustment”),
shall
be settled finally, completely and conclusively by binding arbitration in
Houston, Xxxxxx County, Texas by a single arbitrator, to be selected from
a
panel of persons qualified by education and training to pass on the matter
to be
decided, in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American
Arbitration Association. Arbitration shall be initiated by written demand
by the
party seeking arbitration. This agreement to arbitrate shall be specifically
enforceable only in the District Court of Xxxxxx County, Texas. A decision
of
the arbitrator (the “Arbitrated
Dilutive Adjustment”)
shall
be final, conclusive, and binding on all parties, and judgment may be entered
thereon in the District Court of Xxxxxx County, Texas, to enforce such decision
and the benefits thereof. Any costs and expenses related to such arbitration
and
required to be paid prior to the delivery of the arbitrator’s decision (the
“Initial
Arbitration Costs”)
shall
initially be paid by the party commencing arbitration. All costs and expenses
related to such arbitration shall ultimately be paid by the party whose adjusted
dilutive adjustment referenced above was further from the Arbitrated Dilutive
Adjustment and such party shall, if necessary, promptly reimburse the other
party for the Initial Arbitration Costs paid by such other party.
7
4. Certificate
as to Adjustments.
In each
case of any adjustment or readjustment in the shares of Common Stock (or
Other
Securities) issuable on the exercise of the Warrants, the Company, at its
sole
expense, will promptly cause its Chief Financial Officer or other appropriate
designee to compute such adjustment or readjustment and, upon written request
of
a Holder, cause independent certified public accountants (which may be the
regular auditors of the Company) selected by the Company to verify such
computation (other than any computation of the Fair Market Value, which shall
be
determined in accordance with the definition thereof), in each case, in
accordance with the terms of the Warrant, and prepare a certificate setting
forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon
which
such adjustment or readjustment is based, including a statement of (a) the
consideration received or receivable by the Company for any additional shares
of
Common Stock (or Other Securities) issued or sold or deemed to have been
issued
or sold, (b) the number of shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities)
outstanding or deemed to be outstanding, and (c) the Purchase Price and the
number of shares of Common Stock to be received upon exercise of this Warrant,
in effect immediately prior to such adjustment or readjustment and as adjusted
or readjusted as provided in this Warrant. The Company will forthwith mail
a
copy of each such certificate to the Holder of the Warrant.
The
Company will also keep copies of all such reports at its chief executive
office
and will cause the same to be available for inspection, upon reasonable notice
to the Company, at such office during normal business hours by any Holder
or any
prospective purchaser of this Warrant designated by the Holder.
5. No
Dilution or Impairment.
The
Company shall not, by amendment of its Charter or through any consolidation,
merger, reorganization, reclassification, transfer of assets, 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 of this Warrant, but will at
all
times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the
taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to
protect
the rights of the Holder against dilution or other impairment. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the Company (a) will take all such action
as
may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and
legally issue the Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant and (b) will
not
take any action that results in any adjustment of the Purchase Price if the
total number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant after
such
action would exceed the total number of shares of Common Stock (or Other
Securities, if applicable) then authorized by its Charter and available for
the
purpose of issuance upon such exercise.
6. Reservation
of Stock, etc. Issuable on Exercise of Warrant; Financial
Statements.
The
Company will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance
and
delivery on the exercise of the Warrants, all shares of Common Stock (or
Other
Securities) from time to time issuable on the exercise of the Warrant. All
Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be duly authorized
and, when issued upon such exercise, shall be validly issued and, in the
case of
shares, fully paid and nonassessable, with no liability on the part of the
Holders thereof.
7. Assignment;
Exchange of Warrant.
Subject
to compliance with applicable securities laws, this Warrant, and the rights
evidenced hereby, may be transferred by any registered holder hereof (a
“Transferor”).
On
the surrender for exchange of this Warrant, with the Transferor’s endorsement in
the form of Exhibit
C
attached
hereto (the “Transferor
Endorsement Form”),
the
Company, at its sole expense, but with payment by the Transferor of any
applicable transfer taxes, will issue and deliver to or on the order of the
Transferor thereof a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor, dated the date
hereof, in the name of the Transferor and/or the transferee(s) specified
in such
Transferor Endorsement Form (each a “Transferee”),
calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of shares
of Common Stock called for on the face or faces of the Warrant so surrendered
by
the Transferor. No such transfers shall result in a public distribution of
the
Warrant.
8
8. 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 of this Warrant by any Person other than the Holder,
on
delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount
to
the Company or, in the case of any such mutilation, on surrender of this
Warrant
for cancellation, the Company at its sole expense, will execute and deliver,
in
lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor and dated the date
hereof.
9. Registration
Rights.
The
Holder of this Warrant has been granted certain registration rights by the
Company. These registration rights are set forth in the Registration Rights
Agreement dated as of October 14, 2008, (the “Registration
Rights Agreement”),
between the Company and Holder. The terms of the Registration Rights Agreement
are incorporated herein by this reference.
10. Restrictions
on Transfer.
The
Holder of this Warrant, by acceptance thereof, agrees that, this Warrant
and the
Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise hereof have not been registered
under
the Act, or any state securities laws. This Warrant and the Warrant Shares
issuable upon exercise hereof, may not be sold, offered for sale, pledged,
transferred, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of in the absence of an
effective registration statement under or exemption from the Act and all
applicable state securities laws. Such Holder agrees that, upon the failure
of
the Holder to comply with this Section
10,
the
Company may issue instructions to its transfer agent to place, or may itself
place, a “stop order” on transfers with respect to the Warrant and Warrant
Shares. The certificates evidencing the Warrant and Warrant Shares which
will be
delivered to such Holder by the Company shall bear substantially the following
legend:
THE
SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES
EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED,
TRANSFERRED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE OF AN
EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER OR EXEMPTION FROM SUCH ACT AND ALL
APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY
SATISFACTORY TO XXXXXXX INDUSTRIES, INC. THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT
REQUIRED.
9
Each
Holder of this Warrant and the Warrant Shares, at the time all or a portion
of
such Warrant or Warrant Share is transferred or exercised, as applicable,
agrees
to make such written representations to the Company as counsel for the Company
may reasonably request, in order that the Company may be reasonably satisfied
that such transfer of the Warrant, exercise of the Warrant and consequent
issuance of Warrant Shares, or transfer of the Warrant Shares, as applicable,
will not violate the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of
the
Act, or other applicable state securities laws.
11. Warrant
Agent.
The
Company may, by written notice to the Holder of the Warrant, appoint an agent
(a
“Warrant
Agent”)
for
the purpose of issuing Common Stock (or Other Securities) on the exercise
of
this Warrant pursuant to Section
1,
exchanging this Warrant pursuant to Section
7,
and
replacing this Warrant pursuant to Section
8,
or any
of the foregoing, and thereafter any such issuance, exchange or replacement,
as
the case may be, shall be made at such office by such Warrant
Agent.
12. Transfer
on the Company’s Books.
Until
this Warrant is transferred on the books of the Company, the Company may
treat
the registered holder hereof as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes,
notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. The Company shall not close its
books against the transfer of this Warrant or any Warrant Shares in any manner
which interferes with the timely exercise of this Warrant in accordance with
the
express terms hereof.
13. Governmental
Filings and Approvals.
The
Company shall assist and cooperate with the Holder in making any required
governmental filings or obtaining any required governmental approvals prior
to
or in connection with any exercise of this Warrant (including, without
limitation, making any filings required to be made by the Company).
14. Notices
of Corporation Action.
If, at
any time prior to the Expiration Date of this Warrant and prior to its exercise
in full, any one or more of the following events shall occur: (a) any taking
by
the Company of a record of the holders of any class of securities for the
purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any
dividend or other distribution, or any right to subscribe for, purchase or
otherwise acquire any shares of Common Stock of the Company or any Other
Securities or property, or to receive any other right; (b) any capital
