No. 1-PESI-EW-D 7,000 Shares
PERMA-FIX ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES, INC.
Warrant for the Purchase of Shares of Common Stock
In January 1995, PERMA-FIX ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES, INC., a
Delaware corporation (the "Company"), issued Warrant No. 1-PESI-EW
("Xxxxx Warrant") to X. X. XXXXX INVESTMENT BANKING CORP., or any
permitted assignee thereof ("Xxxxx") for the purchase of seventy-
five thousand (75,000) fully paid and nonassessable shares of the
Company's common stock, par value $.001 per share ("Common Stock").
Under the terms of the Xxxxx Warrant, on or about March 23, 1995,
Xxxxx assigned various portions of the Xxxxx Warrant to certain
persons and retained a portion of the Xxxxx Warrant to itself.
This warrant ("Warrant") is issued pursuant to the partial
assignment by Xxxxx of the Xxxxx Warrant. The Xxxxx Warrant, and
all warrants of like tenor which may be issued by the Company as a
result of the assignment by Xxxxx of all or any portion of the
Xxxxx Warrant or all warrants issued by the Company in exchange or
substitution for, or the assignment of, or upon partial exercise of
the Xxxxx Warrant, this Warrant, or any other warrants issued by
the Company as a result of the assignment by Xxxxx of all or any
portion of the Xxxxx Warrant are hereafter collectively referred to
as the "Warrants." The individuals to whom Warrants are issued are
hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Warrant Holders." The
shares of Common Stock issuable and issued upon exercise of the
Warrants are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Warrant
Shares" and the price payable for each of the Warrant Shares upon
such exercise is hereinafter referred to as the "Warrant Price."
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the Company hereby certifies that Ruki
Renov, or any permitted assignee thereof, is entitled to purchase
from the Company, at any time in whole or from time to time in
part, during the period commencing the 1st day of January, 1996,
and ending at 5:00 p.m., Atlanta, Georgia time, on December 31,
1999 (the "Exercise Period"), seven thousand (7,000) shares of the
Company's Common Stock, $.001 par value ("Common Stock"), all of
which shall be fully paid and nonassessable, at a purchase price of
Two Dollars and 37.5 Cents ($2.375) per share, to be issued and
delivered by the Company upon the exercise of this Warrant;
pursuant to the terms hereof; provided, however, that the number of
shares of Common Stock to be issued and delivered by the Company
upon the exercise of this Warrant and the purchase price to be paid
for each such share shall be subject to adjustment from time to
time as hereinafter provided. This Warrant and all warrants of
like tenor which may be issued by the Company in exchange or
substitution for or upon the transfer or partial exercise of this
Warrant are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Warrant".
The shares of Common Stock of the Company issuable and issued upon
exercise of the Warrant is hereinafter collectively referred to as
the "Warrant Shares". The price payable for each of the Warrant
Shares upon such exercise is hereinafter referred to as the
"Warrant Price", which Warrant Price shall be Two Dollars and 37.5
Cents ($2.375) for each Warrant Share, subject to adjustment from
time to time pursuant to Section 3 hereof. The term "Common Stock"
as hereinafter used in this Warrant shall mean the shares of Common
Stock, par value $.001 per share, of the Company.
1. Exercise of Warrant. This Warrant may be exercised, as a
whole at any one time or in part from time to time, during the
Exercise Period, by the holder of this Warrant (the "Holder"), by
the surrender of this Warrant (with the subscription form at the
end hereof duly executed) at the address set forth in Section 10
hereof, together with payment in the manner hereinafter set forth
of an amount equal to the Warrant Price in effect at the date of
such exercise multiplied by the total number of Warrant Shares to
be purchased upon such exercise. Payment for Warrant Shares shall
be made by a cashier's or certified check or money order to the
order of the Company. If this Warrant is exercised in part, such
exercise shall be for a whole number of Warrant Shares and the
Holder shall be entitled to receive a new Warrant covering the
number of Warrant Shares in respect of which this Warrant has not
been exercised, unless this Warrant has expired pursuant to its
terms. Upon any exercise and surrender of this Warrant, the
Company (i) will issue and deliver to the Holder a certificate or
certificates in the name of the Holder for the largest whole number
of Warrant Shares to which the Holder shall be entitled and, if
this Warrant is exercised in whole, in lieu of any fractional
Warrant Share to which the Holder otherwise might be entitled, cash
in an amount equal to the fair value of such fractional share
(determined in such reasonable manner as the Board of Directors of
the Company shall determine), and (ii) will deliver to the Holder
such other securities and properties which the Holder may be
entitled to receive upon such exercise, or the proportionate part
thereof if this Warrant is exercised in part, pursuant to the
provisions of this Warrant. Upon termination of the Exercise
Period, this Warrant shall no longer be exercisable by the Holder.
2. Reservation of Warrant Shares. The Company agrees, that at
all times prior to the expiration of the Exercise Period, the
Company will have authorized and in reserve, and will keep
available, solely for issuance or delivery upon the exercise of the
Warrant such number of shares of the Common Stock and such amount
of other securities and properties as from time to time shall be
deliverable upon the exercise of the Warrant, free and clear of all
restrictions on sale or transfer (except as otherwise provided by
this Warrant or as may be imposed under applicable federal and
state securities laws or the applicable exchange upon which the
Common Stock may be listed) and free and clear of all preemptive
rights.
3. Protection Against Dilution.
3.1 Except as otherwise provided in this Section 3, if, at
any time or from time to time after the date of this
Warrant, the Company shall distribute to one or more of
the holders of an aggregate of more than 10% of its
outstanding Common Stock, (i) securities (other than of
Common Stock or stock options, warrants or rights to
purchase Common Stock or securities convertible into
Common Stock granted or sold in accordance with Section
3.8), without payment therefor, or (ii) property, other
than cash, without payment therefor, then, and in each
such case, the Holder, upon the exercise of this
Warrant, shall be entitled to receive the securities
and property which the Holder would hold on the date of
such exercise if, on the date of this Warrant, the
Holder had been the holder of record of the number of
shares of the Common Stock subscribed for upon such
exercise and, during the period from the date of this
Warrant to and including the date of such exercise, had
retained such shares and the securities and properties
receivable by the Holder during such period. Notice of
each such distribution shall be forthwith mailed to the
Holder.
3.2 If, at any time or from time to time after the date of
this Warrant, the Company shall (i) pay a dividend or
make a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of
Common Stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding shares of
Common Stock into a greater number of shares, (iii)
combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
smaller number of shares, or (iv) issue by
reclassification of its Common Stock any shares of any
other class of capital stock of the Company, the number
of Warrant Shares and the Warrant Price in effect
immediately prior to such event shall be adjusted so
that, upon exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall
be entitled to purchase under this Warrant, without
additional consideration therefor, the number of shares
of Common Stock or other capital stock of the Company
which he would have owned or been entitled to purchase
immediately following the happening of any of the
events described above in this subsection 3.2 had this
Warrant been exercised and the Holder become the holder
of record of the Warrant Shares purchased upon such
exercise immediately prior to the record date fixed for
the determination of stockholders entitled to receive
such dividend or distribution or the effective date of
such subdivision, combination or reclassification at a
Warrant Price equal to the aggregate consideration
which the Holder would have had to pay for such Warrant
Shares immediately prior to such event divided by the
number of Warrant Shares the Holder is entitled to
receive immediately after such event. An adjustment
made pursuant to this subsection 3.2 shall become
effective immediately after the record date in the case
of a dividend or distribution and shall become
effective immediately after the effective date in the
case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification.
If, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this
subsection 3.2, the Holder shall become entitled to
receive shares of two or more classes of capital stock
or shares of Common Stock and any other class of
capital stock of the Company, the Board of Directors
(whose determination shall be conclusive and shall be
described in a written notice to the Holder promptly
after such adjustment) shall determine the allocation
of the adjusted Warrant Price between or among shares
of such classes of capital stock or shares of Common
Stock and such other class of capital stock.
3.3 In case of any consolidation or merger of the Company
in which the Company is not the surviving entity, or in
case of any sale or conveyance by the Company to
another entity of all or substantially all of the
property of the Company as an entirety or substantially
as an entirety, the Holder shall have the right
thereafter, upon exercise of this Warrant, to receive
the kind and amount of securities, cash or other
property which the Holder would have owned or been
entitled to receive immediately after such
consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance had this
Warrant been exercised in full immediately prior to the
effective date of such consolidation, merger, sale or
conveyance and in any such case, if necessary,
appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application
thereafter of the provisions of this Section 3 with
respect to the rights and interests of the Holder to
the end that the provisions of this Section 3
thereafter shall be correspondingly applicable, as
nearly as may reasonably be, to such securities and
other property. The provisions of this subsection 3.3
shall similarly apply to successive consolidations,
mergers, sales or conveyances. Notice of any such
consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, and of said
provisions so proposed to be made, shall be mailed to
the Holder not less than twenty (20) days prior to such
event. A sale of all or substantially all of the
assets of the Company for a consideration consisting
primarily of securities shall be deemed a consolidation
or merger for the foregoing purposes.
3.4 Except as provided in subsection 3.8 hereof, if at any
time or from time to time after the date of this
Warrant, the Company shall sell any shares of Common
Stock for a consideration per share less than the
Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such sale,
the Warrant Price shall be adjusted as of the date of
such sale so that the same shall equal the price
determined by dividing (i) the sum of (A) the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to
such sale multiplied by the Warrant Price plus (B) the
consideration received by the Company upon such sale,
by (ii) the total number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding after such sale; provided, however, that in
no event shall the exercise price be adjusted pursuant
to the computation under this Section 3.4 to an amount
in excess of the Warrant Price in effect immediately
prior to such computation.
3.5 No adjustment of the Warrant Price shall be required
unless such adjustment would require an increase or
decrease of at least $0.05; provided, however, that any
adjustments which by reason of this subsection 3.4 are
not required to be made shall be carried forward and
taken into account in any subsequent adjustment, and
provided further, that adjustments shall be required
and made in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 3 (other than this subsection 3.4) not later
than such time as may be required in order to preserve
the tax-free nature of a distribution to the Holder.
All calculations under this Section 3 shall be made to
the nearest cent or to the nearest 1/100th of a share,
as the case may be. Anything in this Section 3 to the
contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall be entitled
to make such reductions in the Warrant Price, in
addition to those required by this Section 3, as it
shall deem to be advisable in its discretion in order
that any stock dividend, subdivision of shares or
distribution of rights to purchase stock or securities
convertible or exchangeable for stock hereafter made by
the Company to its shareholders shall not be taxable.
3.6 Whenever the Warrant Price is adjusted as provided in
this Section 3 and upon any modification of the rights
of the Holder in accordance with this Section 3, the
Chief Financial Officer of the Company promptly shall
certify the Warrant Price and the number of Warrant
Shares after such adjustment or modification, a brief
statement of the facts requiring such adjustment or
modification and the manner of computing the same, and
shall cause such certificate to be mailed to the
Holder.
3.7 For purposes of this Section 3, in case any shares of
Common Stock, options or securities entitling the
holders thereof to purchase Common Stock or any
securities entitling the holders thereof to convert
such into Common Stock ("Convertible Securities") shall
be or are to be sold or issued by the Company for cash,
the net proceeds received by the Company shall be
deemed to be the consideration received by the Company
therefor. If any shares of Common Stock, options or
securities entitling the holders thereof to purchase
Common Stock or to convert such securities into Common
Stock shall be or are to be sold or issued for a
consideration other than cash, the amount of the
consideration other than cash received by the Company
shall be deemed to be the fair value of such
consideration as determined in good-faith by the Board
of Directors of the Company, without deduction of any
expenses incurred or any underwriting commissions or
concessions paid or allowed by the Company in
connection therewith.
3.8 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no
adjustment to the Warrant Shares or the Warrant Price
shall be required under this Section 3 as a result of
(i) the issuance or sale of Common Stock or Convertible
Securities by the Company as a result of the exercise
of any options presently outstanding under the
Company's 1991 Performance Equity Plan, as amended (the
"1991 Plan"), 1992 Outside Directors Stock Option Plan,
as amended (the "1992 Plan"), and 1993 Nonqualified
Stock Option Plan, as amended (the "1993 Plan") (the
1991 Plan, 1992 Plan, and the 1993 Plan are referred to
collectively as the "Plans"); or (ii) the issuance of
any options which may hereafter be granted by the
Company under any of the Plans or under any other
employee benefit plan of the Company provided such
options are issued with a conversion or exercise price
equal to the fair market value of the Common Stock at
the date of grant or any Common Stock or Convertible
Securities hereafter issued or sold by the Company as
a result of the exercise of any options hereafter
granted by the Company under any Plans or under any
other employee benefit plan of the Company; or (iii)
the issuance or sale by the Company of any Common
Stock, Convertible Securities, warrants or rights in
connection with or arising out of or relating to the
private placement described in the Revised Confidential
Term Sheet, dated June 6, 1994, as supplemented from
time to time (the "Private Placement"), whether such is
now or hereafter issued or sold; or (iv) the issuance
or sale of Common Stock or Convertible Securities after
the date hereof upon the exercise of any rights or
warrants outstanding as of the date hereof or the
issuance or sale of Common Stock or Convertible Secur-
ities after the date hereof upon the exercise of any
rights or warrants issued by the Company in connection
with or arising out of or relating to the Private
Placement; or (v) the sale of any shares of Common
Stock, Convertible Securities or warrants in a firm
commitment underwritten public offering or the issuance
of any shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities
upon the exercise or conversion of such warrants or
Convertible Securities issued in such firm commitment
underwritten public offering; or (vi) the issuance by
the Company of Common Stock or any other securities to
Quadrex Corporation or Quadrex Environmental Company,
or their successors or assigns, under or in connection
with or as a result of that certain Stock Purchase
Agreement, dated March 23, 1994, as amended, between
the Company and Quadrex Corporation and that certain
Purchase Agreement, dated March 23, 1994, as amended,
between the Company, Perma-Fix of Florida, Inc.,
Quadrex Corporation and Quadrex Environmental Company.
3.9 As used in this Section 3, the term "Common Stock"
shall mean and include the Company's Common Stock
authorized on the date of the original issue of the
Warrants and shall also include any capital stock of
any class of the Company thereafter authorized which
shall not be limited to a fixed sum or percentage in
respect of the rights of the holders thereof to
participate in dividends and in the distribution of
assets upon the voluntary liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of the Company; provided, however, that the
shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall
include only shares of such class designated in the
Company's Certificate of Incorporation as Common Stock
on the date of the original issue of the Warrants or
(i), in the case of any reclassification, change,
consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance of the
character referred to in Subsection 3.3 hereof, the
stock, securities or property provided for in such
section or (ii), in the case of any reclassification or
change in the outstanding shares of Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of the Warrants as a result of
a subdivision or combination or consisting of a change
in par value, or from par value to no par value, or
from no par value to par value, such shares of Common
Stock as so reclassified or changed.
3.10 For purposes of this Section 3, in case any shares of
Common Stock shall be or are to be sold or issued by
the Company for cash, the net proceeds received by the
Company shall be deemed to be the consideration
received by the Company therefor. If any shares of
Common Stock shall be or are to be sold or issued for
a consideration other than cash, the amount of the con-
sideration other than cash received by the Company
shall be deemed to be the fair value of such
consideration as determined in good faith by the Board
of Directors of the Company, without deduction of any
expenses incurred or any underwriting commissions or
concessions paid or allowed by the Company in con-
nection therewith.
4. Fully Paid Stock; Taxes. The Company agrees that the shares
of the Common Stock represented by each and every certificate for
Warrant Shares delivered upon the exercise of the Warrant shall, at
the time of such delivery, be validly issued and outstanding, fully
paid and nonassessable, and not subject to preemptive rights, and
the Company will take all such actions as may be necessary to
assure that the par value or stated value, if any, per share of the
Common Stock is at all times equal to or less than the Warrant
Price. The Company further covenants and agrees that it will pay,
when due and payable, any and all federal and state stamp, original
issue or similar taxes which may be payable in respect of the
issuance of any Warrant Share or certificate therefor.
5. Limited Transferability and Investment Representation.
5.1 This Warrant shall not be transferable or assignable by
the Holder, except (i) to any corporation or
association which is a successor to the Holder, or (ii)
to one or more directors or officers of Xxxxx, and
shall be so transferable upon the books of the Company
which it shall cause to be maintained for that purpose;
provided that any such assignee shall be bound by the
terms hereof and prior to such assignment or transfer
such transferee or assignee shall execute such docu-
ments as may reasonably be required by the Company to
evidence that such assignee or transferee is bound by
the terms hereof. The Company may treat the registered
holder of this Warrant as he or it appears on the
Company's books at any time as the holder of this
Warrant for all purposes. The Company shall permit the
Holder or its duly authorized attorney, upon written
request during ordinary business hours, to inspect and
copy or make extracts from its books showing the
registered holder of this Warrant. Any Warrant issued
in substitution of this Warrant will be dated the same
date as this Warrant.
5.2 By acceptance hereof, the Holder represents and
warrants that this Warrant is being acquired, and all
Warrant Shares to be purchased upon the exercise of
this Warrant will be acquired, by the Holder solely for
the account of the Holder and not with a view to the
fractionalization and distribution thereof, and will
not be sold or transferred except in accordance with
the applicable provisions of the Act and the rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder, and the Holder
agrees that neither this Warrant nor any of the Warrant
Shares may be sold or transferred except under cover of
a registration statement under the Act which is
effective and current with respect to such Warrant
Shares or pursuant to an opinion of counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the Company that registration under the
Act is not required in connection with such sale or
transfer. Any Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of
this Warrant shall bear the following legend:
The securities represented by this certificate
have not been registered under the Securities
Act of 1933 and are restricted securities
within the meaning thereof. Such securities
may not be sold or transferred except pursuant
to a registration statement under such Act
which is effective and current with respect to
such securities or pursuant to an opinion of
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the issuer
of such securities that such sale or transfer
is exempt from the registration requirements
of such Act.
6. Nasdaq; Boston Stock Exchange. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, this Warrant may not be exercised by the
Holder until the Company has listed the Warrant Shares with the
National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation
system ("Nasdaq") and the Boston Stock Exchange (the "Exchange").
The Company will use reasonable efforts to list the Warrant Shares
with the Nasdaq and the Exchange.
7. Loss, etc., of Warrant. Upon receipt of evidence satisfactory
to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of
this Warrant, and of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the
Company, if lost, stolen or destroyed, and upon surrender and
cancellation of this Warrant, if mutilated, and upon reimbursement
of the Company's reasonable incidental expenses, the Company shall
execute and deliver to the Holder a new Warrant of like date, tenor
and denomination.
8. Warrant Holder Not Shareholder. This Warrant shall not be
deemed to confer upon the Holder any right to vote the Warrant
Shares or to consent to or receive notice as a shareholder of the
Company, as such, because of this Warrant, in respect of any
matters whatsoever, or any other rights or liabilities as a
shareholder, prior to the exercise hereof.
