Issue
Date: __,

THIS
WARRANT IS TO CERTIFY THAT, _______________ (the
“Purchaser”),
is
entitled to purchase from H2Diesel Holdings, Inc., a Florida
corporation
(the
“Company”),
_______________ shares
[NOTE:
NUMBER OF SHARES SHALL EQUAL 50% OF THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK INTO
WHICH THE PREFERRED SHARES PURCHASED ARE INITIALLY CONVERTIBLE]
of
the
Company’s common stock, par value $.001 per share (the “Common
Stock”),
at the
Exercise Price.
Section
1. Certain
Definitions.
As
used
in this Warrant, unless the context otherwise requires:
“Exercise
Price”
shall
mean $6.00 per share, as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Section
3 hereof.
“Securities
Act”
shall
mean the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
“Warrant”
shall
mean this Warrant and all additional or new warrants issued upon division or
combination of, or in substitution for, this Warrant. All such additional or
new
warrants
shall at all times be identical as to terms and conditions and date, except
as
to the number of shares of Warrant Stock for which they may be
exercised.
“Warrantholder”
shall
mean the Purchaser, as the initial holder of this Warrant, and
its
nominees, successors or assigns, including any subsequent holder of this
Warrant
to whom
it has been legally transferred.
“Warrant
Stock”
shall
mean the shares of the Company’s Common Stock
purchasable by the holder of this Warrant upon the exercise of this
Warrant.
Section
2. Exercise
of Warrant.
(a) At
any
time after the Is sue Date but prior to the fifth anniversary of the Is sue
Date
(the “Expiration
Date”),
the
Purchaser may at any time and from time to time exercise this Warrant, in whole
or in part.
(b) (i)The
Warrantholder shall exercise this Warrant by means of delivering to the Company
at its office identified in Section
14
hereof
(i) a written notice of exercise, including the number of shares of Warrant
Stock to be delivered pursuant to such exercise, (ii) this Warrant and (iii)
payment equal to the Exercise Price in accordance with Section
2(b)(ii).
In the
event that any exercise shall not be for all shares of Warrant Stock purchasable
hereunder, a new Warrant registered in the name of the Warrantholder, of like
tenor to this Warrant and for the remaining shares of Warrant Stock purchasable
hereunder, shall be delivered to the Warrantholder within ten (10) days after
any such exercise. Such notice of exercise shall be in the Subscription Form
set
out at the end of this Warrant.
(ii) The
Warrantholder shall pay the Exercise Price to the Company either by cash,
certified check to the order of the Company or wire transfer to an account
specified by the Company. At any time following the first anniversary of the
Issue Date and provided that the Warrant Stock is not then registered for resale
pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, then,
in addition to the method of payment set forth in the immediately
preceding sentence and in lieu of any cash payment required thereby,
this
Warrant may also be exercised at such time by means of a “cashless exercise”
in
which
the Warrantholder shall be entitled to receive a certificate for the
number
of
Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A),
where:
(A) |
=
the Market Price (as defined
below);
|
(B) |
=
the Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted from time to time;
and
|
(X) |
=
the number of shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant by means of
a cash
exercise rather than a cashless
exercise.
|
Solely
for the purposes of this paragraph, Market Price shall be calculated
as of
the Trading Day (defined for this purpose as any day on which the equity
securities
markets are generally open for trading) immediately preceding the date which
the
subscription form attached hereto is deemed to have been sent to the Company
pursuant to Section
14
hereof
(such preceding date, the “Valuation Date”).
As used
herein, the phrase “Market
Price”
shall
mean (i) if the Warrant Stock is listed or admitted for trading on a national
securities exchange, an automated quotation system or the Over the Counter
Bulletin Board, the last reported sale price per share of the Warrant Stock
on
the Valuation Date, or, in case no such reported sale takes place on such day
or
is reported, then the average of
the
last reported per share bid and ask prices for shares of the Warrant Stock
on
such
date (or if such bid and ask prices ore not available on such date, the most
recent preceding date), in either case as officially reported by such securities
exchange, quotation system or Bulletin Board on which the Common Stock is listed
or admitted to trading, (ii) if not so listed or admitted for trading, the
fair
market value of a share of the Warrant Stock as determined by the Company’s
board of directors in good faith, or (iii) if such exercise is in connection
with a merger or consolidation of the Company in which the Company is not the
survivor or in which the Warrant Stock is exchanged for cash or other securities
or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company
(collectively, a “Sale”), the implied price per share of the Warrant Stock
resulting from such Sale.
(c) Upon
exercise of this Warrant and delivery of the Subscription Form with proper
payment relating thereto, the Company shall cause to be executed and delivered
to the Warrantholder a certificate or certificates representing the aggregate
number of fully-paid and nonassessable shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon
such exercise.
(d) The
stock
certificate or certificates for Warrant Stock to be delivered
in accordance with this Section
2
shall be
in such denominations as may
be
specified in said notice of exercise and shall be registered in the name of
the
Warrantholder or such other name or names as shall be designated in said notice.
Such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have been issued and the
Warrantholder or any other person so designated to be named therein shall be
deemed to have become the holder of record of such shares, including to the
extent permitted by law the right to vote such shares or to consent or to
receive notice as stockholders, as of the time said notice is delivered to
the
Company as aforesaid.
(e) The
Company shall pay all expenses payable in connection with the preparation,
issue
and delivery of stock certificates under this Section
2; provided, however,
that the
Warrantholder shall be responsible for all transfer taxes
resulting from the fact that any certificate issued in respect of Warrant
Stock
is not
in the name of the Warrantholder.
(f) All
shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant
in accordance with the terms hereof shall be validly issued, fully paid
and
nonassessable, and free from all liens and other encumbrances thereon, other
than liens
or
other encumbrances created by the Warrantholder or restrictions upon
transfer
under federal or state securities laws.
(g) In
no
event shall any fractional share of Warrant Stock of the Company be issued
upon
any exercise of this Warrant. If, upon any exercise of this Warrant, the
Warrantholder would, except as provided in this paragraph, be entitled to
receive a fractional share of Warrant Stock, then the Company shall either
(a)
deliver in cash to such holder an amount equal to such fractional interest,
or
(b) issue a full share in lieu of such fractional share.
Section
3. Adjustment
of Exercise Price and Warrant Stock.
(a) If,
at
any time prior to the Expiration Date, the number of outstanding shares of
Common Stock is (i) increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of Warrant
Stock or by a subdivision or split-up of shares of Common Stock, or (ii)
decreased by a combination of shares of Common Stock, then, following
the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common
Stock
entitled
to receive the benefits of such stock dividend, subdivision, split-up, or
combination, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to a new amount equal to
the
product of (A) the Exercise Price in effect on such record date, and (B) the
quotient obtained by dividing (x) the number of shares of Warrant Stock into
which this Warrant would be exercisable on such record date (without giving
effect to the event referred to in the foregoing clause (i) or (ii)), by (y)
the
number of shares of Warrant Stock which would be outstanding immediately after
the event referred to in the foregoing clause (i) or (ii), if this Warrant
had
been exercised immediately prior to such record date.
(b) Upon
each
adjustment of the Exercise Price as provided in Section 3(a),
the
Warrantholder shall thereafter be entitled to subscribe for and purchase, at
the
Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment, the number of shares of Warrant
Stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Warrant Stock into
which this Warrant would be exercisable prior to such adjustment and (ii) the
quotient obtained by dividing (A) the Exercise Price existing prior to such
adjustment by (B) the new Exercise Price resulting from such
adjustment.
Section
4. Division
and Combination.
This
Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation at
the
aforesaid office of the Company, together with a written notice specifying
the
names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the
Warrantholder or its agent or attorney. The Company shall pay all expenses
in
connection with the preparation, issue and delivery of Warrants under this
Section
4.
The
Company agrees to maintain at its aforesaid office books for the registration
of
the Warrants.
Section
5. Reclassification,
Etc.
In
case
of any reclassification or change of the outstanding Warrant Stock of the
Company (other than as a result of a subdivision, combination or stock
dividend), or in case of any consolidation of the Company with, or merger of
the
Company into, another corporation or other business organization (other than
a
consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation
and
which does not result in any reclassification or change of the outstanding
Common Stock of the Company) at any time prior to the Expiration Date, then,
as
a condition of such reclassification, reorganization, change, consolidation
or
merger, lawful provision shall be made, and duly executed documents evidencing
the same from the Company or its successor shall be delivered to the
Warrantholder, so that the Warrantholder shall have the right prior to the
Expiration Date to purchase, at a total price not to exceed that payable upon
the exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock and other
securities and property receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization,
change, consolidation or merger by a holder of the number of shares of Warrant
Stock of the Company which might have been purchased by the Warrantholder
immediately prior to such reclassification, reorganization, change,
consolidation or merger, and in any such case appropriate provisions shall
be
made with respect to
the
rights and interest of the Warrantholder to the end that the provisions
hereof
(including provisions for the adjustment of the Exercise Price and of the number
of shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall thereafter be
applicable in relation to any shares of stock and other securities and property
thereafter deliverable upon exercise hereof.
Section
6. Reservation
and Authorization of Capital Stock.
The
Company shall, at all times on and after the date hereof, reserve and keep
available for issuance such number of its authorized but unissued shares of
Common Stock as will be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all
outstanding Warrants.
Section
7. Rights
of
Stockholders.
Nothing
contained herein be construed to confer upon the holder of this Warrant, as
such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right
to
vote
for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to
stockholders
at any
meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether
upon any recapitalization, issuance of stock, reclassification of stock, change
of par value or change of stock to no par value, consolidation, merger,
conveyance, or otherwise) or to receive notice of meetings, or to receive
dividends or subscription rights or otherwise until the Warrant shall have
been
exercised and the certificates representing the Warrant Stock shall have been
issued, as provided herein.
Section
8. Stock
and
Warrant Books.
The
Company will not at any time, except upon dissolution, liquidation
or winding
up, close its stock books or warrant books so as to result in preventing
or
delaying
the exercise of any Warrant.
Section
9. Limitation
of Liability.
No
provisions hereof, in the absence of affirmative action by the Warrantholder
to
purchase Warrant Stock hereunder, shall give rise to any liability
of the Warrantholder to pay the Exercise Price or as a stockholder of
the
Company
(whether such liability is asserted by the Company or creditors of the
Company).
Section
10. Transfer
This
Warrant may be transferred only upon the written consent of the Company, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any Warrants issued
upon
the transfer of this Warrant shall be numbered and shall be registered
in a Warrant Register as they are issued. The Company shall be
entitled to
treat
the registered holder of any Warrant on the Warrant Register as the
owner
in fact
thereof for all purposes and shall not be bound to recognize any equitable
or
other
claim to, or interest in, such Warrant on the part of any other person,
and shall
not
be liable for any registration of transfer of Warrants that are registered
or
to be
registered in the name of a fiduciary or the nominee of a fiduciary unless
made
with the actual knowledge that a fiduciary or nominee is committing a breach
of
trust in requesting such registration or transfer, or with the knowledge
of
such
facts that its participation therein amounts to bad faith. This Warrant
shall
be
transferable only on the books of the Company upon delivery thereof duly
endorsed by the Holder or by his duly authorized attorney or representative,
or
accompanied by proper evidence of succession, assignment, or authority to
transfer. In all cases of transfer by an attorney, executor, administrator,
guardian, or other legal representative, duly authenticated evidence of his
or
its authority shall be produced. Upon any registration of transfer, the Company
shall deliver a new Warrant or Warrants to the person entitled thereto. This
Warrant may be exchanged, at the option of the Holder thereof, for another
Warrant, or other Warrants of different denominations, of like tenor and
representing in the aggregate a like amount, upon surrender to the Company
or
its duly authorized agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall
have
no obligation to cause Warrants to be transferred on its books to any person
if,
in the opinion of counsel
to the Company, such transfer does not comply with the provisions of
the
Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder.
Section
11. Investment
Representations; Restrictions on Warrant Stock.
Unless
a
current registration statement under the Securities Act shall be in
effect
with respect to the Warrant Stock to be issued upon exercise of this
Warrant,
the Warrantholder, by accepting this Warrant, covenants and agrees
that,
at the
time of exercise hereof, and at the time of any proposed transfer of Warrant
Stock acquired upon exercise hereof, such Warrantholder will deliver to the
Company a written statement that the securities acquired by the Warrantholder
upon
exercise hereof are for the account of the Warrantholder or are being held
by
the
Warrantholder as trustee, investment manager, investment advisor or as any
other
fiduciary for the account of the beneficial owner or owners for investment
and
are not acquired with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any
distribution thereof (or any portion thereof) and with no present intention
(at
any such time) of offering and distributing such securities (or any portion
thereof). The Warrantholder agrees that certificates representing Warrant Stock
may bear a legend substantially as follows:
