1
2. EXERCISE
(a) Method of Exercise. Holder may exercise this Warrant by delivering this Warrant together with a duly executed Notice of Exercise in substantially the form attached as Appendix 1 hereto to the principal office of the Company. Unless Holder is exercising the conversion right set forth in Section 2(b), Holder shall also deliver to the Company a check for the aggregate Exercise Price for the Shares being purchased.
(b) Conversion Right. In lieu of exercising this Warrant as specified in Section 2(a), Holder may from time to time, if and only if the Fair Market Value (as defined below) is determinable pursuant to Section 2(c), convert this Warrant, in whole or in part, into a number of Shares determined as follows:
X | = | Y (A-B) | ||||||
A | ||||||||
where: | X | = | the number of Shares to be issued to the Holder. | |||||
Y | = | the number of Shares with respect to which this Warrant is being exercised. | ||||||
A | = | the Fair Market Value (as determined pursuant to Section 2 (c) below) of one Share. | ||||||
B | = | the Exercise Price. |
(c) Fair Market Value.
(i) If shares of Common Stock are traded on a nationally recognized securities exchange, the “Fair Market Value” of one Share shall be the average closing sale price of a share of Common Stock over the ten (10) day trading period immediately preceding the date of Holder’s Notice of Exercise to the Company.
(ii) If the Fair Market Value cannot be determined pursuant to Section 2(c)(i), the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock in its reasonable good faith judgment.
(d) Delivery of Certificate and New Warrant. Promptly after Holder exercises or converts this Warrant, the Company shall deliver to Holder certificates for the Shares acquired and, if this Warrant has not been fully exercised or converted and has not expired, a new Warrant representing the right to purchase the Shares not so acquired.
(e) Replacement of Warrants. On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company at its expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu of this Warrant, a new warrant of like tenor.
2
(f) Assumption on Sale, Merger, or Consolidation of the Company.
(i) “Acquisition”. For the purpose of this Warrant, “Acquisition” means any sale, transfer, exclusive license, or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any acquisition, reorganization, consolidation or merger of the Company where the holders of the Company’s outstanding voting equity securities immediately prior to the transaction beneficially own less than 50.01% of the outstanding voting equity securities of the surviving or successor entity immediately following the transaction.
(ii) A “Cash Acquisition” means any Acquisition in which the consideration received by the Company or its stockholders consists solely of cash and/or cash equivalents.
(iii) A “True Asset Sale’’ means an Acquisition that is an “arms length” sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets (and only its assets) to a third party that is not an affiliate of the Company.
(iv) Acquisitions Other Than Cash Acquisitions, True Asset Sales. Upon the closing of any Acquisition (other than a Cash Acquisition or True Asset Sale), then this Warrant shall be assumed by the surviving entity and shall be exercisable for the same securities and property as would be payable for the Shares issuable upon exercise of the unexercised portion of this Warrant as if such Shares were outstanding on the record date for the Acquisition and subsequent closing. The Exercise Price shall be adjusted accordingly, and the Exercise Price and number and class of Shares shall continue to be subject to adjustment from time to time in accordance with the provisions hereof. Upon the closing of any Cash Acquisition or True Asset Sale, then, to the extent not exercised or converted on or before the closing of such Acquisition, this Warrant shall terminate and be of no further force or effect. The Company shall provide the Holder with written notice of the foregoing Acquisitions (together with such reasonable information as the Holder may request in connection with such contemplated Acquisition giving rise to such notice), which is to be delivered to Holder not less than ten (10) days prior to the closing of the proposed Acquisition.
(v) Company’s Agreement Upon Acquisition. If upon the closing of any Acquisition that is neither a Cash Acquisition or True Asset Sale, the successor entity does not assume the obligations of this Warrant as required under clause (iv) of this Section 2(0 and Holder has not otherwise exercised this Warrant in full, then Holder shall have the option either to (a) deem this Warrant to have been automatically converted pursuant to the terms herein and thereafter Holder shall participate in the Acquisition on the same terms as other holders of the same class of securities of the Company; or (b) require the Company to purchase this Warrant on the closing date of the Acquisition for cash in an amount per Warrant Share equal to the greater of (i) one and one half (1.5) times the Exercise Price, less the Exercise Price or (ii) the excess (if any) of the Fair Market Value of a Wan-ant Share over the Exercise Price.
3. ADJUSTMENTS.
(a) Stock Dividends, Splits. Etc. If the Company declares or pays a dividend on the outstanding shares of Common Stock, payable in Common Stock or other securities, then upon exercise of this Warrant, for each Share acquired, Holder shall receive, without additional cost to Holder, the total number and kind of securities to which Holder would have been entitled had Holder owned the Shares of record as of the date the dividend or subdivision occurred. If the outstanding Common Stock is subdivided into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased and the number of Shares shall be proportionately increased.
3
(b) Reclassification, Exchange or Substitution. Upon any reclassification, exchange, substitution, or other event that results in a change of the number and/or class of the securities issuable upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant, Holder shall be entitled to receive, upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant, the number and kind of securities and property that Holder would have received for the Shares upon such an event if this Warrant had been exercised immediately before such reclassification, exchange, substitution, or other event. The Company or its successor shall promptly issue to Holder a new Warrant for such new securities or other property in exchange for this Warrant. The new Warrant shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 3 including, without limitation, adjustments to the Exercise Price and to the number and type of securities or property issuable upon exercise of the new Warrant. The provisions of this Section 3(b) shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, exchanges, substitutions, or other events.
(c) Adjustments for Combinations, Etc. If the outstanding shares of Common Stock are combined or consolidated, by reclassification or otherwise, into a lesser number of shares, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately increased and the number of Shares shall be proportionately decreased.
(d) No Impairment. The Company shall not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, or through a reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue, or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed under this Warrant by the Company, but shall at all times in good faith assist in carrying out of all the provisions of this Section 3 and in taking all such action as may be necessary or appropriate to protect Holder’s rights under this Article against impairment.
(e) Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares shall be issuable upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant and the number of Shares to be issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Share. If a fractional Share interest arises upon any exercise or conversion of this Warrant, the Company shall eliminate such fractional Share interest by paying Holder an amount computed by multiplying such fractional interest by the Fair Market Value (determined in accordance with Section 2(c) above) of one Share.
(f) Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price, number of Shares or class of security for which this Warrant is exercisable, the Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment, and furnish Holder with a certificate of its chief financial officer setting forth such adjustment and the facts upon which such adjustment is based. The Company shall, upon written request, furnish Holder a certificate setting forth the Exercise Price, number of Shares class of security for which this Warrant is exercisable in effect upon the date thereof and the series of adjustments leading to such Exercise Price, number of Shares and class of security.
