EXHIBIT 10.12
NEITHER THIS WARRANT NOR THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF
THIS WARRANT HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED
(THE "ACT") AND THIS WARRANT CANNOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED, AND THE SHARES OF
COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT CANNOT BE SOLD OR
TRANSFERRED, UNLESS AND UNTIL (I) THEY ARE SO REGISTERED OR, (II) RULE 144,
RULE 144A OR ANY SUCCESSOR RULE UNDER THE ACT PERMITS SUCH SALE OR TRANSFER, OR
(III) UNLESS SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT THEN REQUIRED UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES OF
SUCH EXERCISE, SALE OR TRANSFER UNDER ANY OTHER EXEMPTION UNDER THE ACT,
PROVIDED THAT THE HOLDER OF THIS WARRANT OR SHARES OF COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE
HEREUNDER DELIVERS TO THE COMPANY AN OPINION OF HOLDER'S COUNSEL THAT AN
EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT IS AVAILABLE.
WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK OF
ITEC ENVIRONMENTAL GROUP, INC.
THIS CERTIFIES that, for value received, MTI Properties (herein
called "Holder") is entitled to subscribe for and purchase from ITEC
Environmental Group, Inc. (herein called the "Company") a corporation organized
and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware, at the price of $.04 per
share, (the "Warrant Exercise Price"), subject to adjustment as set forth in
Paragraph 3 below, at any time up to and including July 31, 2005 and subject to
adjustment as set forth in Paragraph 3 below, 1,000,000 fully paid and
nonassessable shares of the Company's Common Stock, par value $.001 per share.
This Warrant is subject to the following provisions, terms and
conditions:
1. EXERCISE; ISSUANCE OF CERTIFICATES; PAYMENT FOR SHARES.
The rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised by the
Holder hereof, in whole or in part (but not as to a fractional share) at the
principal office of the Company (or such office or agency of the Company as it
may from time to time reasonably designate) at any time within the
aforementioned period, and by payment to the Company by certified check or bank
draft of the Warrant Exercise Price for such shares. The Company shall not be
obligated to issue fractional shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this
Warrant but shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash equal to the Current
Market Price per share multiplied by such fraction (rounded to the nearest
cent). The Company agrees that the shares so purchased shall be deemed to be
issued to the Holder 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. Subject to the provisions of the
next succeeding paragraph and this Paragraph 1, certificates for the shares of
stock so purchased shall be delivered to the Holder within two business days
after the rights represented by this Warrant shall have been so exercised, and,
unless this Warrant has expired, a new Warrant representing the number of
shares, if any, with respect to which this Warrant shall not then have been
exercised or surrendered shall also be delivered to the Holder hereof within
two business days.
For the purpose of any computation under this Section the "Current Market
Price" at any date (the "Computation Date") shall be deemed to be the average
of the daily closing prices of the Common Stock for ten consecutive trading
days ending the trading day immediately prior to the Computation Date. The
closing price for each day shall be the last reported sale price or, in case no
such reported sale takes place on such date, the average of the last reported
bid and asked prices, in either case on the principal national securities
exchange on which the Common Stock is admitted to trading or listed if that is
the principal market for the Common Stock or if not listed or admitted to
trading on any national securities exchange or if such national securities
exchange is not the principal market for the Common Stock, the closing bid
prices reported by the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated
Quotation System or its successor, if any, or such other generally accepted
source of publicly reported bid and asked quotations as the Company may
reasonably designate. If the price of the Common Stock is not so reported or
the Common Stock is not publicly traded, the Current Market Price per share as
of any Computation Date shall be determined by the Board of Directors in good
faith, on such basis as it considers appropriate, and such determination shall
be described in a duly adopted board resolution certified by the Company's
secretary or assistant secretary.
2. SHARES TO BE FULLY PAID; RESERVATION OF SHARES.
The Company covenants and agrees:
(i) That all Common Stock which may be issued upon the exercise
of the rights represented by this Warrant, will, upon issuance, be fully paid
and nonassessable and free from all pre-emptive rights, and taxes, liens and
charges with respect to the issuance thereof;
(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, that the
Company will from time to time take all such action as may be necessary to
assure that the par value per share of the Common Stock is at all times equal
to or less than the then effective Warrant Exercise Price per share of the
Common Stock issuable pursuant to this Warrant;
(iii) That during the period within which the rights represented by
this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will at all times have authorized
and reserved for the purpose of the issuance upon exercise of the rights
evidenced by this Warrant, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to
provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant;
(iv) That the Company will take all such action as may be
necessary to assure that the Common Stock issuable upon the exercise hereof may
be so issued without violation of any applicable law or regulation or of any
requirements of any domestic securities exchange or market upon which any
capital stock of the Company may be listed or traded;
(v) That the Company will not take any action if the total number
of shares of Common Stock issuable after such action and upon exercise of all
warrants and other rights to purchase or acquire Common Stock, together with
all shares of Common Stock then outstanding, would exceed the total number of
shares of Common Stock then authorized by the Company's Certificate of
Incorporation. In the event any stock or securities of the Company other than
Common Stock are issuable upon the exercise hereof, the Company will take or
refrain from taking any action referred to in clauses (i) through (v) of this
Paragraph 2 as though such clauses applied to such other shares or securities
then issuable upon the exercise hereof;
(vi) The Company has all requisite corporate power and authority
to execute and deliver this Warrant; the execution and delivery of this Warrant
have been duly and validly authorized by the Company's Board of Directors and
no other corporate proceedings on the part of the Company are necessary to
authorize this Warrant; this Warrant has been duly and validly executed and
delivered by the Company and constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement
of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms;
(vii) No order, permit, consent, approval, license, authorization
or validation of, and no registration or filing of notice with, any
governmental entity is necessary to authorize or permit, or is required in
connection with, the execution, delivery or performance of this Warrant or the
consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby;
(viii)Neither the execution, delivery nor compliance by the Company
with any of the provisions hereof will (a) violate, conflict with or result in
any breach of any provision of the Company's charter documents, (b) result in a
violation or breach or termination of, or constitute a default under or
conflict with any provision of, any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, license,
lease, agreement or other instrument or obligation to which the Company is
subject, or (c) violate any judgment, order, writ, injunction, decree, award,
statute, rule or regulation to which the Company is subject; and
(ix) Except as provided herein, the Company has not granted any
registration rights with respect to its securities.
3. ADJUSTMENT OF SHARES ISSUABLE OR WARRANT EXERCISE PRICE.
The above provisions are subject to the following:
If the Company shall pay a dividend or make a distribution in
shares of its Common Stock, subdivide (split) its outstanding shares of Common
Stock, combine (reverse split) its outstanding shares of Common Stock, issue by
reclassification of its shares of Common Stock any shares or other securities
of the Company, or distribute to holders of its Common Stock any securities or
any assets of the Company or of another entity, the number of shares of Common
Stock or other securities the Holder hereof is entitled to purchase pursuant to
this Warrant immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the Holder
shall be entitled to receive upon exercise the number of shares of Common Stock
or other securities or assets which such Holder would have owned or would have
been entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events described
above had this Warrant been exercised in full immediately prior to the
happening of such event, and the Warrant Exercise Price per share shall be
correspondingly adjusted. An adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3 shall
become effective immediately after the record date in the case of a stock
dividend or other distribution and shall become effective immediately after the
effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification.
The Holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to participate in any subscription
or other rights offering made to holders of shares of Common Stock as if such
Holder had purchased the full number of shares as to which this Warrant remains
unexercised immediately prior to the record date for such subscription rights
offering. If the Company is consolidated or merged with or into another
corporation or entity or if all or substantially all of its assets are conveyed
to another corporation or entity this Warrant shall thereafter be exercisable
for the purchase of the kind and number of shares of stock or other securities
or property, if any, receivable upon such consolidation, merger or conveyance
by a Holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company which could
have been purchased on the exercise of this Warrant in full immediately prior
to such consolidation, merger or conveyance; and, in any such case, appropriate
adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors) shall be
made in the application of the provisions herein set forth with respect to the
rights and interests thereafter of the Holder of this Warrant to the end that
the provisions set forth herein (including provisions with respect to changes
in and other adjustments of the number of shares of Common Stock the Holder of
this Warrant is entitled to purchase) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly
as possible, in relation to any shares of Common Stock or other securities or
other property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant.
The Company shall not effect any such consolidation, merger or
conveyance, unless upon or prior to the consummation thereof the successor
corporation, or if the Company shall be the surviving corporation in any such
transaction and is not the issuer of the shares of stock or other securities or
property to be delivered to holders of shares of the Common Stock outstanding
at the effective time thereof, then such issuer shall assume by written
instrument the obligation to deliver to the Holder such shares of stock,
securities, cash or other property as the Holder shall be entitled to purchase
in accordance with the foregoing provisions.
4. NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENT.
Upon any adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant or the Warrant Exercise Price, then and
in each such case, the Company shall give written notice thereof by first class
mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the Holder at the address of such Holder as
shown on the books of the Company and pursuant to Paragraph 17, which notice
shall state the Warrant Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment and the
increase or decrease, if any, in the number of shares purchasable at such price
upon the exercise of this Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail the
method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based.
5. OTHER NOTICES.
In case at any time:
1. The Company shall declare any cash dividend upon its Common
Stock payable in stock or make any special dividend or other distribution
(other than regular cash dividends) to the Holders of its Common Stock;
2. The Company shall offer for subscription to the Holders of
any of its Common Stock any additional shares of Common Stock of any class or
other rights;
3. There shall be any capital reorganization or reclassification
of the capital stock of the Company or consolidation or merger of the Company
with or sale of all or substantially of its assets to another corporation or
entity; or
4. There shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution,
liquidation or winding up of the Company;
Then in any one or more of said cases the Company shall give by
first class mail postage prepaid, addressed to the Holder of this Warrant at
the address of such Holder as shown on the books of the Company and pursuant to
Paragraph 17 (i) at least 20 days prior written notice of the date on which the
books of the Company shall close or a record shall be taken for such dividend,
distribution or subscription rights or for determining rights to vote in
respect of any such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or
sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding and (ii) in the case of such
reorganization or reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale, dissolution,
liquidation or winding up, at least 20 days prior written notice of the date
when the same shall take place. Any notice required by clause (i) shall also
specify in the case of any such dividend, distribution or subscription rights
the date on which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled thereto and a
notice required by (ii) shall also specify the date on which the holders of the
Common Stock shall be entitled to exchange their Common Stock for securities or
other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, merger
or sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up as the case may be.
6. ISSUE TAX.
The issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock upon the
exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Holder for any
issuance tax 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 that
of the Holder of the Warrant exercised.
7. CLOSING OF BOOKS.
The Company will at no time close its transfer books against the
transfer of this Warrant or of any shares of Common Stock issued or issuable
upon the exercise of this Warrant in any matter which interferes with a timely
exercise of this Warrant. The Company will not, by any action, seek to avoid
the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at
all times in good faith seek to carry out all such terms and take all such
action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the
Holder against impairment.
8. NO VOTING RIGHTS.
This Warrant shall not entitle the Holder hereof to any voting
rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company.
9. REGISTRATION AND TRANSFER OF SECURITIES; DEFINITIONS.
"Holder" means MTI, Properties and its successors, representatives
and assigns. If there is more than one Holder at any time, each such Holder
shall be entitled to the rights and privileges granted hereunder.
"Company" means ITEC Environmental Group, Inc. and its successors
and assigns.
"Registration", "register" and like words mean compliance with all
of the Federal and state laws, rules, regulations and provisions of agreements
and corporate documents pertaining to lawful and unconditional transfer of the
securities by way of a public offering or distribution.
"Security", or "securities" means the shares of stock of all
classes, type and series, and all rights however evidenced or contained, to
which the Holder shall be entitled upon the exercise of this Warrant.
10. TRANSFERS.
Prior to any transfer or attempted transfer of any securities
(except a transfer by a Holder to an affiliate, subsidiary, employee or
shareholder of the Holder), the Holder shall give written notice to the Company
of such Holder's intention to effect such transfer. Holder will not transfer
or dispose of this Warrant and will not sell or transfer any securities except
pursuant to (i) an effective registration statement under the Act, (ii) Rule
144, Rule 144A or any successor rule under the Act permitting such sale or
transfer or (iii) any other exemption under the Act provided that the Holder
delivers an opinion of Holder's counsel reasonably satisfactory to counsel to
the Company that an exemption from registration under the Act is available.
Each certificate evidencing the securities issued upon such transfer shall bear
the restrictive legend set forth on the first page of this Warrant modified to
delete references to the Warrant, if appropriate, unless in the reasonable
opinion of Holder's counsel such legend is not required in order to insure
compliance with the Act.
11. REGISTRATION.
Each time the Company shall propose the registration under the Act
of any securities of the Company, the Company shall give written notice (the
"Company Notice") of such proposed registration to the Holder. The Company
will include in any such Registration Statement any securities (or portion
thereof) of any Holder who 15 days after the mailing of such notice shall
request inclusion. Each Holder shall be entitled to all the benefits of this
Paragraph 11; provided, however, that in the event that the managing
underwriter for the proposed offering for which the registration is being
effected shall determine that the inclusion of all securities requested to be
included by the Holder would adversely affect the ability of the underwriter to
sell all of the securities requested to be included in such offering, the
Holder shall agree to reduce the number of securities to be included to the
number recommended by the underwriter but not by more than one-half of the
securities proposed to be registered by the Holder. Nothing herein contained
shall limit the right of the Company to terminate a proposed registration for
any reason in its absolute discretion. The Company shall not grant to any
holder of its securities rights to include securities in any offering of the
type described in this Paragraph 11 which are superior to those of the Holder.
The Company will pay the costs and expenses incident to the
performance of its obligations under this Paragraph 11, including the fees and
expenses of its counsel, the fees and expenses of its accountants and all other
costs and expenses incident to the preparation, printing and filing under the
Act of any such Registration Statement, each prospectus and all amendments and
supplements thereof, the costs incurred in connection with the qualification of
the securities under the laws of various jurisdictions (including fees and
disbursements of counsel to the Company), the cost of furnishing to the Holder
copies of any such Registration Statement, each preliminary prospectus, the
final prospectus and each amendment and supplement thereto, all expenses
incident to delivery of the security to any underwriter or underwriters, but
not any underwriting commissions or discounts charged to the Holder.
Any Holder whose securities are included (in whole or in part) in a
registration statement filed by the Company hereunder agrees, if requested by
the managing underwriter of such offering, not to effect any public sale or
distribution of securities of the same class as (or securities exchangeable or
exercisable for or convertible into securities of the same class as) the
securities included in the Registration Statement, including a sale pursuant to
Rule 144 under the Act (except as part of such underwritten registration)
during the 90-day period (or shorter period requested by the underwriter)
beginning on the closing date of such underwritten offering to the extent
timely notified in writing by the Company or the managing underwriter.
The Company agrees not to effect any public or private sale or
distribution of securities of the same class as the securities (or convertible
into or exchangeable or exercisable for securities of the same class as the
securities), including a sale pursuant to Section 4(2) or Regulation D under
the Act, during the 90-day period beginning on the closing date of an offering
made pursuant to this Paragraph 11 except that in the case of a "shelf"
registration made pursuant to Rule 415 under the Act no public sale or
distribution shall be made by the Company until 60 days following the effective
date of the registration statement covering Holder's securities.
12. INDEMNIFICATION.
The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder and any
underwriter (as defined in the Act) for such Holder and each person, if any,
who controls the Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Act against
any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof),
joint or several, to which the Holder or underwriter or such controlling person
may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims,
damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) are caused by any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any
Registration Statement under which the securities were registered under the
Act, any preliminary prospectus or prospectus contained therein, or any
amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission
or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; and will
reimburse the Holder, underwriter and each such controlling person for any
legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Holder, underwriter or such
controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any such loss,
claim, damage, expense or liability or action; provided, however, that the
Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss,
claim, damage, expense or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made
in conformity with written information furnished by the Holder or underwriter
in writing specifically for use in the preparation thereof.
Each Holder will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of
its directors, each of its officers who have signed said Registration
Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning
of the Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the
Company, or any such director, officer or controlling person may become subject
under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) are caused by any untrue or alleged
untrue statement of any material fact contained in said Registration Statement,
said preliminary prospectus or prospectus, or amendment or amendments or
supplements thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the
alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; in each case to the
extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission was so made in reliance upon and in
conformity with written information furnished by the Holder for use in the
preparation thereof; and will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by the Company or any such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action. It shall be a condition of the Company under Paragraph 11
above that the Holder confirm to the Company in writing, prior to the effective
date of any Registration Statement in which are included securities of such
Holder, the agreement of such Holder as set forth in the previous sentence.
Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party pursuant hereto of
notice of any claim or the commencement of any action to which indemnity would
apply, such indemnified party will, if a claim thereof is to be made against
the indemnifying party pursuant hereto, notify the indemnifying party of such
claim or action; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not
relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party
otherwise than hereunder. In case such action is brought against any
indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement
thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in, and, to the
extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly
notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such
indemnified party, provided, however, that any person entitled to
indemnification hereunder shall have the right to employ separate counsel and
to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses of such
counsel shall be at the expense of such person and not of the indemnifying
party unless (a) the indemnifying party has agreed to pay such fees or
expenses, or (b) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assure the defense
of such claim and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified
party, or (c) in the reasonable judgment of such indemnified party a conflict
of interest may exist between such indemnified party and the indemnifying party
with respect to such claims (in which case, if the indemnified party notifies
the indemnifying part in writing that such indemnified party elects to employ
separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, the indemnifying
party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such claim on behalf of
such indemnified party.)
13. RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS SURVIVE EXERCISE OF WARRANT.
The rights and obligations of the Company, of the Holder of this
Warrant and of the Holder of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise
of this Warrant contained herein shall survive the exercise of this Warrant.

are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a part of this Warrant.
This Warrant is being delivered and is intended to be performed in the State of
California and shall be construed and enforced in accordance with such law and

15. RULE 144.
The Company covenants that if it has registered any class of
securities under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the *34 Act*) it will
file, on a timely basis, the reports required to be filed by it under the Act
and the 34 Act, and the rules and regulations adopted by the Commission
thereunder, and it will take such further action as the Holder may reasonably
request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to
sell securities without registration under the Act within the limitation of the
conditions provided by (a) Rule 144 and Rule 144A under the Act, as such Rules
may be amended from time to time, or (b) any similar rule or regulation
hereafter adopted by the Commission. Upon the request of the Holder the
Company will deliver to such Holder a written statement verifying that it has
complied with such information and requirements.
At any time that the Company does not have a class of securities
registered under the 34 Act it will comply with the requirements of paragraph
c(2) of Rule 144 so that the Holder may avail himself of Rule 144 in effecting
a public sale of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant.
16. ARBITRATION.

Warrant or the obligations of the parties hereunder shall be resolved by
binding arbitration to be held in Los Angeles, California under the auspices
and subject to the rules than pertaining of the American Arbitration

relief. Any decision of the arbitrators shall be enforceable in any court of
competent jurisdiction.

after the date of this Warrant enter into, any agreement with respect to its
securities which is inconsistent with the terms of this Warrant, including any
agreement which impairs or limits the rights granted to the Holder in this
Warrant, or which otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof or would
preclude the Company from discharging its obligations hereunder.
20. SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE.
The Holder in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights
provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be

a remedy at law would be adequate.
21. SEVERABILITY.
In the event than any one or more of the provisions contained
